Silent Night, Deadly Night III: Better Watch Out!
When your nightmare ends, the real terror begins!
Directed by Monte Hellman
Produced by Quiet Films Inc.
A slasher horror sequel that pits a resurrected killer Santa against a psychic blind woman, trading narrative coherence for graphic kills and paranoid pursuit.
Ricky Caldwell, the notorious 'Killer Santa Claus', awakens from a six-year coma after being kept alive on life-support by a slightly crazed doctor experimenting with ESP and other special abilities. Ricky targets a young, clairvoyant blind woman, named Laura, whom is traveling with her brother Chris, and his girlfriend Jerri to their grandmother's house for Christmas Eve, and Ricky decides to go after her, leaving a trail of dead bodies in his wake.
