Silent Night, Deadly Night reboot slated for 2022

Merry Chirstmas to someone, I guess, as Orwo Studios and Black Hanger Studios (Jeepers Creepers: Reborn) have announced today that they've acquired the remake rights to the seminal slasher film Silent Night, Deadly Night. The original film's producers Scott Schneid and Dennis Whitehead of Wonderwheel Entertainment will join them.

Here's the official synopsis for the original:

Declared as the most controversial film of the 80s – Silent Night, Deadly Night tells the story of a child who is traumatized after seeing his parents killed by a man dressed as Santa Claus. Years later, he dons a Santa suit himself and gets bloody revenge on the naughty list.

So, obviously no official start or release date as of yet, save for sometime in 2022 – but we'll definitely keep you updated when more information comes in.

Now I don't have much fondness for the series (save that "Garbage day!" clip from one of the sequels), but what do you guys think? Looking forward to a remake, or do you think it's a sacred cow to be left alone? Either way, sound off below!
