• 0:33
  Speaker 3: Yay!

  Speaker 1: And this one I actually bought something. Normally I'll just
• 0:38
  Speaker 1: be like, This looks terrible. I don't want to own it.
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: Let's just take a picture of it. But this one
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: I saw and we were coming up on the holidays
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: and I was like, well, I might as well get
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: Silent Night Bloody Night. Oh. Which is different than the

• 1:01
  Speaker 1: I can't tell.
• 1:02
  Speaker 2: Or a rifle of some sort?
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: This is just a pretty ghetto DVD anyway. I like
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: the grease pencil that somebody wrote some random crap on here.
• 1:11
  Speaker 2: Well, my first thought was that, oh, somebody signed that.
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: And then I was like, no, it's just, Lord knows
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: where that's from. But even the pictures on the back,
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: this was my favorite selling this kind of crap back
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: in the day. Even the pictures on the back are
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: bad quality images. Like you couldn't even be bothered to
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: scam them by putting a decent image on it, even
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: though the actual movie is going to be garbage. But no, no,
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: even that looks like it's, really bad quality so but
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: i did watch the trailer this doesn't look terrible by
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: the trailer i've heard it's not bad yeah it actually
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: is and that comes from a guy who will watch
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: anything i also was like this probably isn't even christmas
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: related they just stole this title there is a christmas
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: tree in the background of one of the shots i'm
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: like and the voiceover that's throughout it continually as twas
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: the night before christmas and all so they're obviously in
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: the promotion banking on christmas themed i don't know how
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: much christmassy action goes on once you're in there but.
• 2:09
  Speaker 3: What's our plot summary so according.
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: To this then i have to be able to read
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: it here you.
• 2:16
  Speaker 4: Can just physically according to this silent night bloody night
• 2:20
  Speaker 4: is a frightening and suspenseful film that has good performances.
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: I like when they pat themselves on the back on
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: the box.
• 2:26
  Speaker 2: Does it say butt or that?
• 2:29
  Speaker 3: That has good.
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: You can't prove it has.
• 2:34
  Speaker 3: Good performances. Not great.
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: Mediocre performances.
• 2:38
  Speaker 4: Unique scripting. And some truly terrifying scenes.
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: Not all. A lot of other mediocre garbage. But some
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: terrifying scenes.
• 2:49
  Speaker 4: An escaped lunatic, of course, terrorizes the people of a
• 2:53
  Speaker 4: small New England town, especially those in an old mansion
• 2:56
  Speaker 4: that once housed a mental institution. Bodies and blood everywhere
• 3:00
  Speaker 4: and no help in sight. Do not watch this movie alone,
• 3:03
  Speaker 4: in all counts.
• 3:05
  Speaker 3: That's amazing. 1972.
• 3:07
  Speaker 2: Wow, so this was.
• 3:08
  Speaker 4: Like 12 years earlier than Silent Night, Bloody Night.
• 3:13
  Speaker 2: Apparently there is a Silent Night, Bloody Night 2.
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: I'm sure. Oh, my.
• 3:19
  Speaker 2: And there's at least a three because I see a
• 3:21
  Speaker 2: silent night, bloody night. The homecoming.
• 3:25
  Speaker 3: Again.
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: Come on home for Christmas where there will be murder.
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: So normally this is like a real threat. This one's
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: actually like, hey, if you want us to watch this
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: next holiday, join the Meltdown Horror Club and you can
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: put this on the list. Maybe we don't even have
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: to wait for Christmas. Who knows?
• 3:42
  Speaker 3: It has good performances.
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: Some good.
• 3:46
  Speaker 2: The fact I have never once read a DVD or
• 3:50
  Speaker 2: VHS summary that said.
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: There's good performances in this.
• 3:54
  Speaker 2: We swear to God.
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: I promise this is a movie.
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: Silent Night, Bloody Night, The Homecoming is a 2013 British
• 4:04
  Speaker 2: slasher film and remake of the 1972 American film Silent Night,
• 4:08
  Speaker 2: Bloody Night.
• 4:09
  Speaker 3: Wow.
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: Does it have a carotene in it?
• 4:12
  Speaker 2: Carradine.
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: Don't waste my time if there's not some sort of
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: Carradine hanging around like Mr. John right here.
• 4:19
  Speaker 2: No, but it's got a Dickens if that helps any.
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: This one's Patrick O'Neill and John Carradine and these weird
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: women on the cover. Yeah. Wearing pink outfits for some reason.
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: Matching-ish semi-cord.
• 4:37
  Speaker 2: Oh, and apparently it's got Mary Warnhoff in it.
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: I thought I saw her for like a second in there.
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: I was like, that looks like.
• 4:43
  Speaker 2: Did you watch the movie?
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: No, I just watched the trailer. And I was like that,
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: but she's not in it for much. So I was like,
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: that kind of looks like her.
• 4:51
  Speaker 2: Guess who it was produced by, among other people.
• 4:54
  Speaker 3: Harvey Weinstein.
• 4:55
  Speaker 2: Lloyd Kaufman.
• 4:57
  Speaker 3: Oh, okay.
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: That explains a lot.
• 4:59
  Speaker 2: Hey, say what you will about Lloyd Kaufman. He actually
• 5:02
  Speaker 2: wants to make good movies.
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: He likes making movies. Yeah. Some good performances.
• 5:09
  Speaker 3: Some unique scripting.
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: Sean Gunn gives a good performance.
• 5:15
  Speaker 2: So what is a unique scripting?
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: Unique scripting.
• 5:18
  Speaker 2: Do they write it in the snow? I mean.
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: Maybe they do that weird left-handed thing where you have
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: to turn your hand real weird. So you don't smear it.
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: And I feel like everybody who does that feels like
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: it's very unique. So. Left-handed screenwriter.
• 5:33
  Speaker 2: Oh, this is exciting.
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: They should put that on the bottom.
• 5:37
  Speaker 2: The film was never registered with the United States Copyright
• 5:40
  Speaker 2: Office and thus fell into the public domain.
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: That's why you can buy crappy copies like this one
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: right here that I paid almost nothing for.
• 5:48
  Speaker 2: I might actually have a copy of that in one
• 5:50
  Speaker 2: of those 50 horror movies box sets.
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: The sad thing is I might already have one.
• 5:54
  Speaker 2: You probably have two or three.
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: Probably. When we started doing this a million years ago,
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: I bought one that was a $ 50 50 movies in
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: one big-ass box. And then there was another, like, 8
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: or 12 or something. There were, like, two different ones
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: of those that I got that we've done a couple
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: off of. But there's still a good majority of them
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: we haven't touched. So we've got our work cut out
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: for us.
• 6:17
  Speaker 2: Every time the die pulls something up that's an older movie,
• 6:20
  Speaker 2: I run straight to those sets.
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: No luck.
• 6:23
  Speaker 3: Is it on here?
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: Is it on here? All right, back to 2B it is.
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: So if, yeah, if you want us to start working
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: our way through the rest of those weird DVD sets
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: we bought a million years ago, then yeah, join the
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: club and put those weird movies on the list. And
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: in the meantime, you can hear us say amazing things
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: like this. I've got my hot cocoa. We've covered some
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: people and their hot beverage issues. So I'm getting into
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: the mood. We've got our special Christmas cookies and our
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: hot cocoa and we're ready to roll.
• 6:56
  Speaker 2: And some are more frightening than others. Some of them
• 6:59
  Speaker 2: are just gross. Like, they're just really grotesque.
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: He doesn't shy away from that.
• 7:03
  Speaker 2: They're really well done. And the best part is... All right.
• 7:08
  Speaker 4: And it's like this kind of Lovecraftian entity who has
• 7:12
  Speaker 4: a task that he has chosen this guy to do.
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: It exists in its own universe of Christmas music. Uh-huh. Yes.
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: I mean, what Christmas movie have you watched that doesn't
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: play the same 12 songs over and over and over
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: that you've heard?
• 7:29
  Speaker 2: That first song, I was like, I thought I had
• 7:33
  Speaker 2: heard every Christmas song. That's what I'm saying. Apparently I
• 7:36
  Speaker 2: was wrong. And as the movie kept going, I was like,
• 7:38
  Speaker 2: where did they find all these songs I've never heard?
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: Christmas fever.
• 7:43
  Speaker 2: And then I get to the end of the movie
• 7:44
  Speaker 2: and I read the credits and I find out.
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: And, yeah, now we're going to have a snowman trying
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: to cut us up with a chainsaw.
• 7:51
  Speaker 2: We could work out a Patreon incentive where if somebody
• 7:55
  Speaker 2: bids enough money, we could hunt a human on this show.
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: I think it's legal if Patreon sponsors it.
• 8:01
  Speaker 2: I mean, I'm not saying we have to kill them.
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: I'm always fascinated with Donnie and Marie.
• 8:08
  Speaker 4: The entire first half hour of this movie is child abuse.
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah.
• 8:13
  Speaker 3: I was like, I hate this movie.
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: The best movie about a killer robot mall Santa that
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: I've ever seen.
• 8:21
  Speaker 3: I worked for one day at FAO Shorts when I
• 8:24
  Speaker 3: was in New York.
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: And it was horrible. It's like I'm not coming back.
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: You're the smarty pun. Because I did it for you.
• 8:32
  Speaker 2: Yeah, same here. You worked with the rich people's toys.
• 8:37
  Speaker 3: Oh, yeah. And the parents were horrible.
• 8:39
  Speaker 2: Oh, I can only imagine.
• 8:41
  Speaker 3: And I was like.
• 8:43
  Speaker 3: But it was fun. I got to go like behind
• 8:45
  Speaker 3: the scenes at FAO Shores.
• 8:46
  Speaker 2: Did you at least get to play on that giant piano?
• 8:49
  Speaker 1: Yes. I was assuming you danced on the piano.
• 8:50
  Speaker 3: Hell yes, I did. They brought us all over during
• 8:53
  Speaker 3: the training and everybody got to do it.
• 8:55
  Speaker 2: They're like, for Christ's sake, just get it out of
• 8:56
  Speaker 2: your system.
• 8:57
  Speaker 3: And it was awesome.
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: You'll be over here all day if we don't let you.
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: So just go ahead.
• 9:01
  Speaker 3: So I stayed long enough to do that. And then
• 9:03
  Speaker 3: I was like, nope.
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: All right. So we're all toy people.
• 9:05
  Speaker 2: Yeah. That is not an enthusiastic performance at all.
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: No.
• 9:11
  Speaker 3: Well, now I kind of want to see it.
• 9:13
  Speaker 2: You say that. I don't want to see it, too,
• 9:16
  Speaker 2: until I watched it.
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: I don't think you're prepared.
• 9:18
  Speaker 3: Okay.
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: It just kept coming together. And I'm like, I agree
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: it's not totally doing anything different.
• 9:25
  Speaker 2: I don't say that as a complaint.
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: As it went on, I was like, that's the best
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: part about it. It's finding this very specific thing that
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: we all already love. And then shoving these characters in,
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: and in a different way than you would even expect
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: most of the time. Yeah. And just execution is perfect
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: on every episode. I'd get to the end of one,
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: I'd be like, damn, that was so solid.
• 9:47
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: And it delivered on everything it needed to, and the
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: performances are all great, and everything... And.
• 9:54
  Speaker 2: That's okay that they put it in here in this movie,
• 9:57
  Speaker 2: but it also shows to me that they can only
• 9:59
  Speaker 2: afford one Santa suit because they have at least three
• 10:03
  Speaker 2: different Santa Clauses? Clauses? Three Santas wearing the same suit.
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: We're not going to buy more than one suit alright?
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: We're going to get blood all over it by the
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: end anyway so we only can afford one. Touch the
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: door before you open it to see if Christmas is
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: on the other side, kids. Another public service announcement.
• 10:28
  Speaker 4: Because he's only talking to this creature through a glory hole.
• 10:32
  Speaker 4: Because whenever he tries to actually look at him, he
• 10:35
  Speaker 4: gets physically kind of knocked.
• 10:38
  Speaker 3: Out because it's this powerful being or whatever. So he's
• 10:40
  Speaker 3: communicating with him through this glory hole.
• 10:44
  Speaker 2: Which means that she... is used to him just creepily
• 10:49
  Speaker 2: standing over it.
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: This is what I'm saying.
• 10:51
  Speaker 2: I don't like this scene either.
• 10:53
  Speaker 1: The entire, like it was just so random. I was
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: just like, what was that and why was it so weird?
• 10:58
  Speaker 2: See, that's where we need a shot of the cops
• 10:59
  Speaker 2: getting on the radio and being like, yeah, look, we
• 11:01
  Speaker 2: know this killer's out here, but we got something we
• 11:02
  Speaker 2: gotta tell.
• 11:04
  Speaker 1: We're bringing another guy in. Don't worry about this murdering guy.
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: We got a whole other issue to deal with here.
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: So like, this was just a pile.
• 11:11
  Speaker 3: It was just random.
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: It was just shit everywhere and like, Laying sideways. And
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: I'm like, this is not how you set up a store.
• 11:20
  Speaker 2: Well, why the hell did they have Halloween costumes out
• 11:22
  Speaker 2: in December?
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: Why was there still inflatable Easter bunnies hanging out there too?
• 11:27
  Speaker 2: As much as I love and miss those old vinyl
• 11:31
  Speaker 2: Halloween costumes.
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: I was glad to see them, but I was just like,
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: so we just montaged and it's been months, right? So
• 11:37
  Speaker 1: why is the Halloween stuff still on there?
• 11:39
  Speaker 2: Well, the whole, every time they're in the store, I'm
• 11:42
  Speaker 2: not paying attention to what's going on in the movie.
• 11:43
  Speaker 2: I'm just like, okay, are they, Are they going to
• 11:46
  Speaker 2: show us any He-Man stuff? Oh, there it is, Castle Grayskull.
• 11:49
  Speaker 2: And then I could pay attention.
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: Ira's toy store sucks.
• 11:54
  Speaker 2: How? Well, and apparently it doesn't do too well because
• 11:57
  Speaker 2: at the end of Christmas Eve, the shelves were fully stocked.
• 12:02
  Speaker 3: That's true.
• 12:04
  Speaker 1: So real world problems.
• 12:06
  Speaker 2: I figured that. It's like, at least pretend like you
• 12:08
  Speaker 2: give a damn.
• 12:09
  Speaker 1: No. And then the more you get into it, I'm like,
• 12:14
  Speaker 1: this is all so well put together. But then we
• 12:19
  Speaker 1: cut to them, and we're watching these two who are
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: doing it and are, quote unquote, bad. They're being naughty.
• 12:25
  Speaker 1: But I'm like, he just comes busting into the door. Right.
• 12:28
  Speaker 1: Did his super Santa powers let him know that they
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: were being naughty?
• 12:31
  Speaker 2: No, because he confronts the little girl, and he's like,
• 12:36
  Speaker 2: are you naughty? And she's like, no. And he's like,
• 12:38
  Speaker 2: are you sure? And she's like, nope. And he's like, okay.
• 12:43
  Speaker 1: With an axe? One swipe and decapitation? That is a
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: good shot, man.
• 12:48
  Speaker 2: Well, he was sledding downhill pretty quickly.
• 12:50
  Speaker 1: I don't know why, because there was no hill and
• 12:52
  Speaker 1: no snow.
• 12:55
  Speaker 2: I'm sorry, I'm all hopped up on these cookies.
• 12:58
  Speaker 1: Wonderful Christmas cookies encased in sugar.
• 13:01
  Speaker 4: But something about, I just could not stop laughing throughout
• 13:03
  Speaker 4: that entire scene, because it just kept going.
• 13:07
  Speaker 1: Whatever, this is the price we pay for watching ridiculous
• 13:09
  Speaker 1: Christmas movies. Screenwriting.
• 13:14
  Speaker 3: Unique scripting.
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: Hey, that's a whole different movie.
• 13:17
  Speaker 3: Good performances.
• 13:21
  Speaker 2: Can I read a quick quote from Mary Warnoff about
• 13:24
  Speaker 2: that movie?
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: I would be upset if you didn't now.
• 13:28
  Speaker 2: Silent Night, Bloody Night was terrible. We were given a
• 13:32
  Speaker 2: weird script and Ted Gershonny tried to spark it up.
• 13:36
  Speaker 2: He tried to make it an artistic statement, but it
• 13:38
  Speaker 2: didn't work. It didn't even make much sense. Most people
• 13:42
  Speaker 2: couldn't understand what was going on, which is not good,
• 13:45
  Speaker 2: particularly for a horror film.
• 13:48
  Speaker 3: But it's unique.
• 13:49
  Speaker 1: Mary's pretty awesome. Always impressed with Mary. Well, if you
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: want us to watch this proclaimed by the star of
• 13:58
  Speaker 1: the movie, terrible movie, then yeah, join the club. Go
• 14:01
  Speaker 1: to moviemeltdown.com and join the Meltdown Horror Club and you
• 14:04
  Speaker 1: can give us that movie or any number of others.

  Speaker 4: Holy infant so tender and mild We say sleep in
• 14:25
  Speaker 4: heavenly peace
• 14:36
  Speaker 3: In heavenly peace.
