Violent Night
From the producers of Nobody and John Wick comes a bare-knuckle, coal-dark holiday action-comedy that says you should always bet on red. When a team of mercenaries breaks into a wealthy family compound taking everyone inside hostage, they are not prepared for a surprise combatant: Santa Claus. David Harbour (Stranger Things) stars as St. Nick, delivering some serious season's beatings to save the family and the spirit of Christmas.
Best new Xmas movie @LonghornAPD
I had zero expectations this was gonna be so good. Not the director of John wick or Deadpool or Nobody but basically that team of folks made this movie. It’s a little weird at first as it kicks off because you’re not sure what kinda movie this is gonna be but give it a little. What starts off as a Bad Santa riff turns into a violent and somehow heart warming tribute to all those great flicks that that feel like Xmas to me: Die Hard, Die Hard II, Home Alone, Bad Santa, Christmas Vacation and any Shane Black movie in the last 15 years. David Harbour IS Santa and he brings charm, menace and Christmas magic to what should be a cheesy ridiculous slug fest with creative kills ala John Wick and snappy quips you’d hear from John McClane or Wade Wilson. It’s an interesting balance that somehow works. It’s a keeper and I truly enjoyed this Christmas miracle of a flick. Definitely a watch and for certain a buy. I’ll add this to the movies our family watches every Xmas.

No review but why is this movie not available to purchase? It’s only available to rent.
Why is iTunes not letting me purchase this movie(only rent?) @Inman legacies
I can only pay to rent it for $6. No option to purchase. It’s been out a long time.
Hilarious! @htguy
Having grown up on holiday movies like Home Alone and Die Hard (I and II), I think this pays homage to these movies in a clever way. This is quite violent but also very funny, it gave me many laughs. It’s not as excessive as Pineapple Express but along the same lines. Very cool to see Beverly D’Angelo as a very ruthless matriarch as a contrast to Christmas Vacation. With the right combination expectations I think quite a lot of people can enjoy this.
Perfect @I eat books
A Movie that captures the spirit of Christmas in true Amerikill style. I’m a ho ho ho fo money!
