Description

Silent Night 2021
1h 32m | Comedy, Horror | 3 December 2021 (USA)
Storyline:Nell, Simon, and their son Art are ready to welcome friends and family for what promises to be a perfect Christmas gathering. Perfect except for one thing: everyone is going to die.User review:I saw this at a preview screening in an almost full cinema, and probably the most telling comment I could give is that at the end of the film, as the final credits rolled, the whole cinema was eerily quiet.I think most people (myself included) were left wondering “what have I just seen?”.That is not a criticism as such, more a reflection on what is a very strange, sometimes profound, and yet an extremely compelling film.There are some strong and hugely enjoyable performances from most of the cast, and the script is clever and occasionally funny – albeit with many more than necessary profanities (particularly from the children!).The ending was inevitable, yet I found it somewhat unfulfilling. Having said that I’m not sure how else they could have wrapped it up.Certainly it is not a film for everybody, but it is a film that makes you think.
