Cool Horror Videos: AITH’s Killer Guide to Horror: Silent Night Deadly Night

Last Updated on August 2, 2021

Punish!

Welcome to a holiday edition of AITH's KILLER GUIDE TO HORROR! Today we put dear Santa Claus under the microscope, that bloodthirsty maniac. Okay, maybe not old Saint Nick himself, but a couple of twisted brothers who get all kinds of naughty when the yuletide season comes around. Yes, boys and girls, I'm talking about Billy and Ricky from SILENT NIGHT, DEADLY NIGHT 1 and 2.

You know the story. Poor Billy saw his folks killed by a bastard wearing a Santa suit when he was young and it knotted up his wires permanently, eventually causing him to explode in a murderous rampage. His younger bro Ricky went nuts some years later, becoming a bad joke-making monster. It's a sad story, to be honest, but then again these guys are totally weird and awkward and even if they weren't killing people they'd deserve to be locked away for good.

Let Nick take you to school on SILENT NIGHT, DEADLY NIGHT 1 and 2, and if you missed it, check out our SNDN 4 and 5 Face-Off right HERE. (We're gong to have to work in part 3 somewhere.)
