Another Modern Moron Movie Review

Greed and violence awaken the warrior within the legendary Santa Clause; thus, a new tale of the jolly soul is birthed. 

Spawned to the masses on December 2, "Violent Night" weaves brutality and comedy with bizarre originality.

A very wealthy and dysfunctional family in Connecticut has their Christmas eve party disrupted by a large number of heavily armed and skilled thieves who have no qualms when it comes to murder, even if it's a young girl who still believes in Saint Nicholas.

Pat Casey and Josh Miller co-wrote this future classic and many questions are resolved on the many mysteries of Santa, especially how he's able to get through a chimney. 

Santa simple wants to deliver his presents on December 24, but when he encounters nefarious men eager to kill an entire family for $300.0 million in cash, Saint Nick cannot abandon the young girl. 

David Harbour did a great job playing the part of a hard boozing Clause, and Leah Brady, as Trudy, set the tone for combating evil when she booby trapped the attic, resulting in comedic violence. 

John Leguizamo as a baleful Scrooge engages in a bombastic fight with Santa, and the end result of their combat ends with extreme uniqueness. 

Four stars for "Violent Night."
