(1984)
Director: Edmund Purdom
Writers: Alan Birkinshaw, Derek Ford
When her father is killed by a mysterious Santa-hating madman, Kate begins to suspect that someone close to her could be the serial Santa-slashing psycho.
The plot of Don't Open Till Christmas is threadbare but let's be honest, you're not watching a film about someone killing people dressed up as Santa Claus for it's deep sociopolitical undertones. There are some pretty good kills in Don't Open Till Christmas, but unfortunately when it's trying to advance the plot it gets very boring. The bizarre ending seems to come out of left-field as well. Don't Open Till Christmas is not a good film, but i suppose parts of it could be fun if you're watching with friends. 2 out of 6 beers.
