      Patrick Cavanaugh The Wolfman Cometh Completely devoid of any of the charm of the first two entries, as well as nearly devoid of narrative connections, making for an overall abysmal experience. Rated: 1/5 Sep 20, 2023 Full Review Tim Brayton Antagony & Ecstasy Very much at the level of quality you'd predict and anticipate for a direct-to-video slasher sequel from 1989. Rated: 4/10 Dec 27, 2012 Full Review Jeffrey M. Anderson Combustible Celluloid Eventually the dumb characters and miniscule plot catch up and surpass anything that might have had auteur interest, but I'm still curious as to how and why Hellman made this.

      Beau L A boring, drawn out, and pointless sequel. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 12/18/23 Full Review Ian this movie doesn't have anything in it that's necessarily terrible. it's honestly just boring. there is a whole lotta nothing happening for like 40-45 minutes. the main character being blind and having psychic powers is completely unnecessary and adds nothing to the story. this movie has pretty much 0 christmas feel. everyone moves like snails. the acting isn't awful but it's nothing to write home about, not even Bill Moseley was great in this movie. again though, this wasn't offensive or anything and it wasn't terrible, it's a decent horror movie that is poorly paced and has a weak story. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 12/07/23 Full Review purity x soooooo boring.... every character was forgettable and im shocked that this wasnt a straight-to-vhs and nothing else. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 06/03/23 Full Review christopher c. m The first one was flawed but good. The second has 40 minutes just recapping the first movie, which thankfully isn't as much in this one. But the fun of the second movie when it's not stock-footage was the over the top performance from Eric Freeman who plays Ricky. Here Ricky is just a silent Michael Myers, Jason Voorhees killer, which isn't as fun. Plus, when people have no sight, they say "ow" when the doctor test their eyes because the eyes don't work. That was a mistake the director left in the movie. Even though the ditch 90% of the stock-footage, it's still has issues. Not just with Ricky but the pacing, the story and characters. Better than the second one, but still a meh installment. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Joe F This is the worst and bad part of "Silent Night, Deadly Night" franchise. Don't watch this, just not kill your time. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 09/01/22 Full Review Audience Member I feel as if I tried harder to watch this than they did to make it.
