Late Nite Grindhouse Presents X-MASSACRE 2019: ‘SILENT NIGHT, DEADLY NIGHT’ & ‘BLACK CHRISTMAS’ on Dec 6 & 7

We’re super happy to bring you another double feature this year at our new home, Marcus Des Peres. This time, we resurrected features we’ve shown before to give you the best anti-Christmas celebration.

 

Late Nite Grindhouse returns to punish the naughty with a double feature of Christmas horror. First in our unholy helping of terror is “Silent Night, Deadly Night’. ‘Silent Night, Deadly Night’ was released on November 9, 1984, and outgrossed ‘A Nightmare on Elm Street’ which was released on the same day. 10 days later, the film was pulled due to pressure from angry parents reacting to the poster that shows a killer Santa. ‘Silent Night, Deadly Night’ tells the tale of Billy Chapman, orphaned at five after witnessing the murder of his parents at the hands of a Santa suit-clad madman on Christmas Eve. Now eighteen and out of the brutal grip of orphanage nuns, Billy is forced to confront his greatest fear, sending him on a rampage, leaving a crimson trail in the snow behind him. If you survive the first feature, Bob Clark’s (‘A Christmas Story’) original 1974 film ‘Black Christmas’ may be the one that will make you look over your shoulder when you leave the theater. As winter break begins, a group of sorority sisters, including Jess (Olivia Hussey) and the often inebriated Barb (Margot Kidder), begin to receive anonymous, lascivious phone calls. Initially, Barb eggs the caller on but stops when he responds threateningly. Soon, Barb’s friend Claire (Lynne Griffin) goes missing from the sorority house, and a local adolescent girl is murdered, leading the girls to suspect a serial killer is on the loose. But no one realizes just how near the culprit is.
