If you go into a movie like this expecting award-worthy writing, you'll be disappointed. But if you go into it expecting a true slasher film, which is what it is, you won't be disappointed. It's hilarious, gory, and a glorious edition to holiday traditions, if you're a horror lover. The fact that Dee Wallace is in it is such a bonus. Of course it's not perfect, but it's not supposed to be. Bring a sense of humor to horror films. Horror lovers must watch this.
