Like the best BBC shows we are back for a Christmas special.
We talk some new releases with Avatar: The Way of Water and Violent Night before getting into our main event Christmas Evil (1980) otherwise known as You Better Watch Out, written and directed by Lewis Jackson and starring Brandon Maggart. The plot involves a very man who has suffered a childhood trauma whose obsession with Santa Clause leads him to go on a rampage, judging who has been naughty or who has been nice.
It's another one to add to our depressing Christmas movies list, and John Water's favourite Christmas movie too!
