It's bad when a crappy sequel to a good movie occurs (looking at you, Ace Ventura: When Nature Calls). It's bad enough when a franchise begins from a great movie when it should have stayed at one movie (Bring It On, that was a shot at you). Things get worse when an average movie,... read more

So bad it's great. Terrible acting, terrible writing, shoddy cinematography all add up to a barrel of laughs. PUNISH! The main actor is fantastic and does give off the aura of a demented madman. The fact they just used so much footage from part 1 really took some balls and I thin... read more

Pointless sequel to an ugly original movie. They prolong the pain by showing an extended flashback to the first film. It had the wrong killer-Santa vibes throughout. It's mean-spirited with no fun to be had.

This hardly counts as a film. I'm not saying that from any kind of snobbery -- but nearly the first hour of this film is a full retelling of the movie that preceded it, complete with huge blocks of flashback. It's Silent Night Deadly Night 1 plus some. The plus some is ultimately... read more

I'm not trying to make the month of December all about the worst movies I've ever seen, but it is sure ending up that way. SNDN part 2 is possably the laziest sequel I have ever seen. It essentially recaps the entire first film in the initial 40 minutes - scene by scene. What's l... read more

What a terrible movie. Did you like the original? Then you'll like this because about half of this movie is flashbacks from the original! And the parts that weren't flashbacks were terrible. "Garbage Day!"

Wow. I might live the rest of my life and never see a performance as over-the-top as the one Eric Freeman gives in this film. He is so bad that his performance alone almost makes this film worth seeing! It reaches a kind of bad zenith, an imitation of human life so horribly re... read more

Eric Freeman's performance sent chills down my spine. The way he descended into madness and eventually took it out on innocent citizens going about the day in their quiet little suburb. Just look at his face and hear his menacing laugh as he utters those infamous words while layi... read more

Not as good as the original ... and that one kinda stunk, too!
Though Part 2 isn't much more dignified than its predecessor, at the very least its isolated pleasures have a culminating effect. Full Review
