Silent Night, Deadly Night is a 1984 slasher film directed by Charles E. Sellier Jr. and starring Robert Brian Wilson.
A man in a Santa Claus suit goes to a convenience store and robs the it at gun point. He kills the clerk and runs out of the store. Later that night, the Chapman family are on their way home and see the same man in the Santa suit pulled over at the side of the road. When they ask him if he needs help, he pulls out a gun. Billy's dad puts the car in reverse and tries to get away, but the man shoots him. Billy gets out of the car and hides. When he sees the killer try to rape his mother, he looks away. The mother resists and he slits her throat. When Billy looks up, the killer is gone. It is now 1984. Billy is now 18 years old and Sister Margaret is trying to help him get a job at Ira's Toy Store. Billy gets scared when he sees the store Santa. The next day, Billy is asked to play Santa Claus because one of his fellow employees was injured, this stirs up old memories, soon after the slashing begins.

I love this movie. The best Christmas slasher by far, the kills are imaginative and bloody just what you'd expect. Another thing that has made this movie such a fan fave is the fact that all the mommies around the country threw a right little hissy fit over it and got it banned in several cities, which of course only got more people to see it in the end.
