Silent Night, Deadly Night Part 2 abandons the grim tone of its predecessor in favor of goofy ’80s excess, and has gained cult status among bad movie fans thanks to the hilariously eyebrow-based overacting of star Eric Freeman and the infamous “Garbage Day!” YouTube clip, which has been viewed over 5 million times. Most of the movie is actually composed of clips from the first Silent Night, Deadly Night (so much so that the cast and crew of both movies are listed in the credits) as Ricky (Freeman), the little brother of original Santa Claus killer Billy Caldwell, “recalls” events from the first movie—that there is no way he could possibly remember—to a psychiatrist. Eventually we catch up to the present and Ricky’s most recent killing spree, prompted by viewing Silent Night, Deadly Night—the only movie that exists in this universe, apparently—with his girlfriend at the local multiplex. Ricky doesn’t actually don the Santa suit until the end of the film, where he confronts tough old bird Mother Superior (Jean Miller), who could have prevented this whole thing by excusing those suffering from Santa-related trauma from the orphanage Christmas party. The remaining installments in the Silent Night, Deadly Night series, all direct-to-video, don’t have killers in Santa suits but do have Clint Howard holding a giant animatronic grub in Silent Night, Deadly Night 4: Initiation and Mickey Rooney as an unhinged toy store owner in the surprisingly entertaining Silent Night, Deadly Night 5: The Toy Maker.
