This deserves higher than a 5.9!


Anybody else agree?

I gave it a 10/10. It's such a fun little slasher movie. If it doesn't get you in the Christmas spirit, nothing will.

Yes :)

it's 10\10 for me

10/10 for me as well. Criminally underrated little Christmas slasher, and I really dig the soundtrack as well ("Warm side of the door" is my favorite", and I love how it plays over Billy trying to fit in and put his past behind him.)

I've always heard bad things about this film, but I found it surprisingly enjoyable. Wickedly funny in places.

that song always stood out to me. it's kind of a funny song and i love warm side of the door, i mean who thinks of that song line? exactly i love that scene where he's putting boxes away at his job. i've always loved that song. it's such a quaint and amusing and fun song. the thing abut this film is the songs are not traditional Christmas songs which is really refreshing you know what i mean? we get home spun, local, regional band sounding Christmas songs. oh and those Christmas bells sounds while they show the title at the beginning is so unnerving and so scary and disturbing. i can see why people who are dark and love horror films and are cynical could love this film. it's the anti Christmas film.

Agreed. This film is a classic that was unfairly bashed when it first came out, and now I'm glad its developed its own following (its criminally underrated).

Agreed. 10/10, from me, as well
