If you hear “David Harbour plays Santa in a movie called Violent Night,” you might think “slasher movie” or “some kind of edgelord adventure like Mel Gibson’s Fatman.” Those seem like obvious choices, but really, director Tommy Wirkola (of Hansel & Gretel: Witch Hunters) seems to have somehow found an even more obvious choice—one so obvious that we feel like fools for not guessing it in the first place. See, Violent Night isn’t a slasher movie or a “what if Santa was bad words” movie. It’s a freakin’ Die Hard. Set at Christmas. Starring Santa Claus. How have there not been 80 of these movies already?
