Anchor Bay Films has released the first official trailer for its re-imagining of Charles E. Sellier Jr.’s beloved holiday classic Silent Night, Deadly Night, in selected theaters Nov. 30 and on DVD and Blu-ray Dec. 4. While it doesn’t look nearly as disturbing as the 1984 original, the Steven C. Miller-directed slasher appears to have enough creative kills to keep our Christmas spirits up.

Silent Night, Deadly Night follows a murderous Santa as he slays residents of a small Midwestern town during its annual Christmas day celebration. The film stars Jaime King (Mother’s Day), Malcolm McDowell (Silent Hill: Revelations), Donal Logue (Shark Night), Ellen Wong (Scott Pilgrim), Lisa Marie (Lords of Salem) and Brendan Fehr (“Roswell”).
