Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
This 2025 remake arrives 41 years after the original 1984 film that sparked protests and was pulled from theatres—proving killer Santas will never not be controversial.
Ruby Modine is Matthew Modine's daughter, making this a weirdly full-circle horror family affair since her dad faced his own masked killer in Stranger Things.
