Plot – Spoilers:
Part 4 in the Silent Night Deadly Night series has no connection to the earlier films barring a scene from SNDN-3 playing out on a television screen.
By the end of it, you won’t be alone if you wonder what the fuck it was all about and what was the point. I suppose it’s some kind of creature-feature, and therefore appropriately begins by introducing us to a guy wearing a turtleneck and leather-jacket combo. It also has Neith Hunter, if you dig her, and some homely witches.
This sequel is its own entity, with the only connection being that it takes place at Christmas time (much like with Halloween III, if you’re dead set on hating it, of course you’ll hate it, but it deserves to be given a chance for what it is). An occult conspiracy, horrific bugs, bending reality… for me this movie brings to mind Burroughs, Polanski, and Argento. It’s very strange and I absolutely love it.
This is one of the best movies in the series, it’s a Yuzna classic. It would’ve been perfect but they really did Ricky wrong here..
