Fun Facts: A copy Die Hard on bluray was one of the presents Santa pulled, hoping to use as a weapon, (which you couldn’t see because it is wrapped).

The film referenced a Christmas horror movie, ‘Silent Night, Deadly Night’ in which Santa swings a weapon while shouting ‘NAUGHTY!”

Summary: When a wealthy family is held hostage on Christmas eve, Santa comes to save the family and Christmas.

The One Liner Review: Violent Night really brings the ho ho ho to the action genre, a holly jolly time from start to finish.
