Rohan Campbell’s Santa Suits Up For The Kill In First Trailer For SILENT NIGHT, DEADLY NIGHT Remake
The film hits theaters in December.
Originally released over forty years ago, Silent Night, Deadly Night has gone on to become a classic, a holiday slasher alongside Black Christmas for everyone who’s tired of watching It’s a Wonderful Life this year. Now, there’s a remake on the horizon, and to celebrate San Diego Comic-Con weekend, we’ve just gotten our first look at the film in a new trailer.
Billed as a “reimagining” of the cult 1984 film, which the trailer says “traumatized a generation,” the film is set to star Halloween Ends’ Rohan Campbell as the film’s cheery killer, alongside Ruby Modine, Mark Acheson, David Lawrence Brown, and David Tomlinson. The film’s synopsis is as follows:
When Billy witnesses his parents’ grisly murder on Christmas Eve at the hands of Santa, it ignites a lifelong mission to spread holiday fear. Every Christmas, he dons the jolly red suit and delivers a blood-soaked massacre to feed his twisted sense of justice. This Christmas Eve, Billy wants to know: “Have you been naughty?”
Written and directed by Mike P. Nelson, Silent Night, Deadly Night is executive produced by Steven Schneider, Anthony Masi, Sarah Eilts, Brandon Hill, Brad Miska, Erick Opeka, Yolanda Macias, Matthew Helderman, and Luke Taylor, with producers Scott Schneid, Dennis Whitehead, Jamie R. Thompson, Erik Bernard, and Jeremy Torrie. The film is being produced by Cineverse, the same company behind the Terrifier films, and it looks like this one’s going to be just as bloody as Art the Clown’s evil rampages — if not more.
