Silent Night, Deadly Night (Franchise)

[KAMALARAMBO: BOOMSHAKALAKA!!!]

Garbage day!

Anyway, Silent Night, Deadly Night 3,4, and 5 are all on Movieplex currently. I've seen the first two multiple times, but never had these readily available before. I watched 3 earlier and started on 4, but had to head out before I finished. Fun cheesy stuff. Also, three reminded me a lot of Friday the 13th Part VII with the psychic female protagonist. They only came out about a year apart too.

I've had to bootleg em apart from the 1st

Over here only the first & 4th are available, 4 is called "bugs" over here and damn hard to find.

I like 1, 2 (final act) & 5, the rest aren't very good IMO

It's a shame 2 is mostly just the first one edited down then about 30 minutes of new footage. The original parts of it are so bad ass (and I thought so before that garbage day bit became a meme).

first one is legt a good horror movie, second one is one of the best terrible horror movies around, rest are kinda meh.

The first was one is actually good but the rest of the series however is total f***ing garbage.

Gotta admit I the remake/reboot was decent.

Not as good as 1 but decent none the less

[Ultimo Gallos]

1 is a good and dark slasher.
2 is pretty good,and the explanation for why part of the movie is flashbacks makes sense.
3 is bad. Outside of Bill Mosley and Laura Herring the rest of the cast is crap.
4 is a blast . It has Clint Howard in a great part.
5 is piles of fun. Plus neat to see Rooney in the film since he protested the original.
Remake ....well it is better than part 3.

[Chuck Conry]

1, 5, and the remake are really all anyone needs. I love one but I also feel like part 5 is highly underrated. Just good silly fun.

[El Cokehead del Knife Fight]

1 is a genuinely creepy slasher, the original stuff in 2 is goofy, 3 is awful, 4 & 5 are both pretty bad but they're both super entertaining and shlocky horror films which is probably the best kind of 80s slasher.

I've always enjoyed this more than Troll 2s OH MY GODDDD scene. Wish it was as popular.

It's been a few years, but the wiki for the second one used to be hilarious. Something about how literally no-one has heard from the star in years. Nobody is worried, or thinks he's dead, he just hasn't been heard from at all. The way it was phrased just made it sound ridiculous.

[Bishblast]

That scene in the theater from 2 is just mind boggling... I remember having to stop the movie and try to process what was happening. Amazing.

[KAMALARAMBO: BOOMSHAKALAKA!!!]

Just finished 4 and 5 over the past couple of days. I actually think I enjoyed 3 more than 4. Although neither are my favorites.

I'd probably go:

1
2
5
3
4

2 might beat 1 if I watched them far enough apart. I just wish it had more original parts to it rather than being so much recap.

Don't forget Cruel Jaws when the shark looks like its doing a serenade, "OOOOH filet of sole a mio!"

No idea if Movieplex still has them up, but it certainly wouldn’t of have been more appropriate for this month.

Part 2 is a tale of 2 sequels, the first part's basically a clip show (originally, part 2 was going to be just a recut of part 1) but the 2nd part makes up for it with a decent movie.
