"Silent Night, Deadly Night" Getting the Remake Treatment

Variety is reporting that another remake is in the works and this time it's the 1984 Christmas themed horror flick Silent Night, Deadly Night that is getting the remake treatment. The film is titled Silent Night and it's being said that it's not a direct remake, but a "loose remake."

Anchor Bay has picked up North American distribution rights to the film and the plan is to release the film this coming holiday season. Malcolm McDowell is set to star and Steven C. Miller will direct.

The story will follow "a local police department's search for the killer Santa Claus terrorizing a remote Midwestern town on Christmas Eve. McDowell will play Sheriff Cooper, a small-town hero ready for some big-time action."

Check out the trailer for the original film below:
