Episode #302: Violent Night

Howdy listeners and welcome back to our little movie review pod. For this week’s review we continue chatting about new Christmas films with Violent Night starring David Harbour and John Leguizamo. Not a murdering Santa Claus topics include The Blair Witch Project, our 300th Episode Blu-ray winner announced, and lots of podcast problems.

Can you remember a recent year where we got some fun great Christmas movies back to back? This year it happened and Matt and Mike are really enjoying it. Let’s just come out with it, Violent Night is awesome! It is basically Die Hard and Home Alone mashed together with some Christmas Vacation throw in for good measure. Violent Night is very well violent! So much so it’s comical much like video game violence. This film is also heart felt with some real Christmas feels in it too. David Harbour does a great job as Santa murdering lots and lots of people in fun interesting ways. Our villain played by John Leguizamo also did a fantastic job of being loathed.  

Mike and Matt both agree Violent Night is a must see film especially if you are into action movies. They both award the film 4.5 out of 5 Reels.  

For next week’s review the guys head back to the theater but not to catch another Christmas movie. This is a film 13 years in the making so we have to let you know if it’s any good, Avatar: The Way of Water. Thanks for listening everyone and we will chat with you next week!
