Yes—and the one I mentioned earlier, Christmas Evil is actually a different movie. About Silent Night, Deadly Night from Wikipedia:
>>Silent Night, Deadly Night was one of the most controversial films of the 1980s because the killer is dressed as Santa Claus. The PTA fought to have this film removed from theaters due to its subject matter and the fact that it was shown around Christmas, although an earlier film with a similar premise had gone unnoticed.
Upon its original release in 1984, the film created serious controversy. Siskel and Ebert condemned the film and went so far as to read the film’s production credits on air, saying “shame, shame” after each one. Siskel also said that all the money the filmmakers were making off of this film was blood money.] Leonard Maltin also condemned the film, calling it a “...worthless splatter film”, giving it zero stars and asking: “What’s next, the Easter Bunny as a child molester?” Large crowds (mostly angry families) formed at theaters and malls around the nation to protest the film
““What’s next, the Easter Bunny as a child molester?””
Just a matter of time...
Charles E. Sellier Jr., the director of ‘Silent Night Deadly Night’ later became a Born Again Christian and went on to make a bunch of Faith related documentaries. He died earlier this year.
