This is a slasher movie I found recently thanks to Youtube. It was pretty rare for a while but was recently released on Blu Ray and Dvd, I think. Anyway, it's about a serial killer going around London around Christmastime, murdering anyone he/she comes across who is dressed in a Santa outfit. meanwhile, detectives and the daughter of one of the slain Santas tries to find the killer and stop them before they strike again. I loved it.

Very. Far from being the BEST Christmas slasher around but I enjoyed it both times I saw it.

I haven't seen this one either. Is this worth seeing?

Can't you see it? The effects of cinema violence on society?

DEFINITELY worth seeing though its not one of the best of the 80s.

I'm really surprised that I'm the only one here who has seen it.

You're not. :P
I gave it a watch recently and I was mostly disappointed. I liked that it was in London and that instead of a killer dressed AS Santa, they were targeting those who were. There were a couple of good deaths too.

I watched this in December. I own it in the Mill Creek 50 pack set. It's not great, but has its moments. You can tell quite a bit of footage wasn't filmed when director/star Edmund Purdom left the project. The film had to be rewritten around his existing footage.

The stripper girl whatever played by Kelly Baker was also in SLAUGHTER HIGH.

Edmund just ditched? Lol. I had no idea. That's probably covered in the documentary on the DVD I got. Before, I just had this in a cheap 100 film set.

I really don't know why I keep watching it since it's such a mess but it's an...addictive mess? (wary) Lol@Caroline Munro's random scene. She should've been the lead imo.

I always forget that a few of the kills in this are actually quite good.

Good song, though.

I tend to binge watch Christmas related movies in December. This is among them.
