"The metaphysical depths that Silent Night, Deadly Night Part 2 manages to reach will cut off your circulation and leave you for dead." - Joseph A. Ziemba, Bleeding Skull!

"Freeman's bug-eyed performance is so far off the deep end it can't even be classified as lousy; he's clearly in an orbit all his own." - Nathaniel Thompson, DVD Delirium

"I may go as far as to say this film is more of a classic than the first." - Dan Kinem, VHShitfest

Every day is "Garbage Day!" Ricky—the traumatized brother of the psychopathic Billy from Silent Night, Deadly Night—has been released from the mental hospital. But before he can start life anew, Ricky must destroy Mother Superior, the powerful nun that caused his brother's violent demise. Be it by knife, umbrella, or car battery, Ricky unleashes a bloodbath of carnage on unsuspecting victims as he makes his way to Mother Superior's home on Christmas—Santa suit in tow. Making clever use of recycled footage from its predecessor and featuring an unhinged performance by star Eric Freeman, Silent Night, Deadly Night Part 2 is an unforgettable yuletide horror experience.
