So I bought the first two of these movies on DVD today at Best Buy, on special.

Pretty controversial, I've never seen them but I've heard a lot. I know the first one was banned in New York for some time, and there was a huge controversy over it.

Haven't watched either of them yet. Has anyone seen these flicks?
 
THINGS I LEARNED FROM THIS MOVIE

Catatonic grandparents are only biding their time, waiting for a chance to traumatize the children when you aren't looking.
Santa prefers the stopping power of a .45 ACP.
Having loud premarital sex in a building full of nuns (that are armed with leather belts) is not advised.
A forty pound child can knock a grown man to the ground with one punch.
Women shouldn't trust men who want to give them a "present" in dark storerooms.
The sound of cardboard boxes falling over is louder than the screams of a woman being raped.
Toy stores stock longbows with sixty pound draws, something able to shoot an arrow entirely through a human body.
Children don't know the right way to hang up a phone.

Sounds like a real winner.
 
From the back of the DVD case...

Community leaders tried to suppress them. The PTA fought to ban them. Now one of the most controversial slasher films of all time - and it's sicko sequel - are back like never before, presented uncut, uncensored, and together for the first time ever!

SILENT NIGHT, DEADLY NIGHT is the heartwarming story of little Billy Chapman who was traumatized by his parents Christmas Eve rape and murder, then brutalized by sadistic orphanage nuns. But when a grown-up Billy is forced to dress as jolly St. Nick, he goes on a yuletide rampage to punish the naughty! Santa Claus is coming to town, and this time he's got an axe! Robert Wilson and Linnea Quigley star in this jaw-dropping horror hit that a nation of angry mothers still can't stop!

Man. I'm hyped.
 
Geez, someone must have spent his whole lunch break writing that up.

I saw the original on cable television years ago, not much to say about it, not really my taste.. If you go for that sort of thing Malky, hope you enjoy it.

Still, you paid for these movies?
