This movie was so-so. It had it's moments, but wasn't the greatest.

... View MoreBEWARE OF FALSE REVIEWS & REVIEWERS. SOME REVIEWERS HAVE ONLY ONE REVIEW TO THEIR NAME. NOW WHEN ITS A POSITIVE REVIEW THAT TELLS ME THEY WERE INVOLVED WITH THE FILM. IF ITS A NEGATIVE REVIEW THEN THEY MIGHT HAVE A GRUDGE AGAINST THE FILM . NOW I HAVE REVIEWED OVER 200 HOLIDAY FILMS. I HAVE NO AGENDA. I AM HONEST! Well I have a feeling that this film was never intended to part of the "Silent Night Deadly Night" series of films. I think LIVE HOME ENTERTAINMENT bought the home video rights and released this film under the "Silent Night" franchise name. Now this film has many elements lifted from "Pinocchio". The twist and turns however in this little film make it really fun to watch however PLEASE KEEP THIS FILM AWAY FROM SMALL CHILDREN. This is RATED R and has graphic violence. In this film a little boy witnessing his dad being murdered under a Christmas tree by a toy. The event has turned him into a mute. So he has never told his mom what really happened. The film is weird and creepy. I usually do not like horror films that have a Christmas setting. I only watched this because it was Halloween time. I am glad I watched it. I will watch again but not at Christmas time.
... View MoreWhen I was a kid, I was obsessed with this series. Obviously, I liked the original the best, but I had to have them all. How did we go from a psychotic kid in a Santa Claus suit to a witch cult, and now toys that kill you? (The irony is that Mickey Rooney stars in this film, yet when the original was released, he was one of the many people to bash it. Either he's a big hypocrite, or he was in desperate need of money when he filmed this)Derek Quinn receives a present late one night that says 'Don't Open Til Christmas' While opening it, his stepfather finds him and sends him back to bed, so he can open it himself. It's a red Santa ball that soon begins to attack and kill him. Derek witnesses this and can't talk because of the shock. Weeks later, the Toymaker sends him more devilish gifts that come alive. Who is doing this, and for what purpose? If you like horror themed Christmas movie, you might like SILENT NIGHT DEADLY NIGHT 5: THE TOYMAKER!!!
... View MoreThey were really cracking out these independent low-budget films straight to video, but just like the last entry "Initiation" the filth instalment "The Toy Maker" (which had Brain Yunza involved again, but this time only producing) took on a different spin (while still being hysterically deranged) and would probably go down as my favourite of the four sequels. This enterprise actually had some similar shades to "Halloween III; Season of the Witch" and at times it strangely had me thinking of "Child's Play 2" namely that of its opening credits, nonetheless the gimmicky story is surprisingly inspired if ridiculously convoluted and mean-spirited. It's a jolly odd one, as the delightful Neith Hunter returns with her headstrong character Kim in nothing more than a minor role and also it has actor Mickey Rooney (who was heavily opposed to the original when it got a whirlwind of scathing attention) finding himself apart of the notorious franchise. It's funny how things do work out, but he's ideally great in the part. The rest of the performances are fairly delivered by Jane Higginson, William Thorne, Van Quattro and Brian Bremer is downright creepy as Pino. Clint Howard shows up again in a tiny, if thankless part. Cult make-up / special FX maestro Screaming Mad George provides the ample special effects and again he does a tremendous job crafting out the details, where he storms up some nasty pieces of work when the toys go berserk. Director / writer Martin Kitrosser (who would be best known by horror fans for penning "Friday the 13th Part 3, 4 and 5") piles on the outrageous jolts and unforeseeable story twists, but it can fall a bit on the stodgy side even with its polished look.
... View MoreA young boy sees his father killed by a toy that was anonymously delivered to his house. After that, he is too traumatized to speak, and his mother must deal with both him and the loss of her husband. Meanwhile, a toy maker named Joe Peto builds some suspicious-looking toys, and a mysterious man creeps around both the toy store and the boy's house...but who is responsible for the killer toys? despite being a part five in a weak (With the exception of part four and this one) and dead end series, SNDN5 is a very good horror film that is lifted by a interesting premise and innovative special effects. the acting isn't too bad but rather unimaginative and the script is flat. Other than that, this film is almost perfect. After all, Brian Yuzna produced it. You know it's going to be a winner!!!!!!! 7/10.
