Slick sequel - The Nights Before Christmas review by AER
This exceedingly silly horror sequel sees Simon Phillips, Sayla De Goede and director Paul Tanter return to make sure our Christmasses are bloody. The plotting and script is super dozy, and some of the supporting actors are a bit lame. However, Simon Phillips as Killer Santa delivers another demented tour-de-force in his signature role. It looks the business with slick cinematography, beautiful snowy locations, and cool SFX, however it's all a bit same old same old, not to mention predictable. This sequel is a moderate improvement on the first one, but on the whole it's still a bad, bad, bad movie.

Entertaining, fun thriller with 'grand guignal' horror - The Nights Before Christmas review by PV
I really enjoyed this. It's a thriller-cum-horror with OTT and crasy Santa and Mrs Claus. Real panto stuff!
Clearly influenced by 'Silence of the Lambs' in parts, this film never gets boring - it keeps up the pace and craziness throughout.
