Silent Night

I don't know how its been given a Horror and a Comedy status.

It's dark, sad, and not in the least funny or scary.

Don't watch on Christmas day as it may upset you.

"Silent Night" is an interesting film. It took me thirty minutes into the film to figure out what is going on. The plot is interesting, but I did see the ending coming. It nice to see so many big name actors and actresses.

I'm not really sure this film knows what it wants to be. If you want to watch a good film about adults and children facing the end check out 'These Final Hours'. If you want to watch a black comedy about the end of the world try Dr Strangelove. There is a lot of talent on screen but much of the script is nonsense and the characters are both sympathetic and unlikeable - but not in a good way. Roman Griffin Davis was pretty good, but the script was obviously distorted to feature everything he says and does. Nothing felt natural and most of the character's motivations remain a mystery. By the end you don't care how it ends.

Wow, that was not at all what I was expecting. It's not comedy, it's not horror, it is the very darkest of British black comedy, which means not much comedy at all. However, go into it without those previous preconceptions, and you've got to say, it's a pretty good film.

Don't rely on it for Christmas cheer, but for enthralling watching, good acting and a mostly unexpected layout, you'll get more than you bargained for.

Happy Christmas everyone, well perhaps not everyone.......

This movie should not have been advertised as a horror comedy. It is far from it. This movie was very good in my opinion, definitely worth a watch. This was a whole rollercoaster of a movie. Definitely does not deserve all the negative reviews just because it wasn't what everyone expected.
