Silent Night Deadly Night (1984)


Released November 9th in the US.

The story : It's Christmas Eve. Little Billy is excited about Santa Claus coming later and wants to stay up to meet him.
He is traveling along with his parents and baby brother to visit his grandfather who lives in a mental institution.
When they get to talk to grandpa , he won't say a word to them. So Billy's parents go talk to the doctor and leave him with grandpa.
Grandpa surprises Billy when he begins talking to him. But grandpa scares him as well.
He tells him that Santa Claus will punish him if he has ever been a bad boy so now Billy doesn't wanna ever meet Santa.
On their way home , Billy tells his parents of how grandpa spoke to him and told him about Santa being mean. 
His parents believe him but don't think much of his story.
That's when they see a man dressed as Santa on the side of the road looking as if he has car trouble,
Billy pleads with them to not stop but they do and that's the end of that.
Some years later Billy is living in an orphanage now with his little brother.
He is good all year except when Christmas comes around.
Billy continuously gets punished for bad behavior around Christmas and can never forget about any of it.
As a young adult , one of the nuns at the orphanage finds Billy a job as a stock boy at the local toy store.
