In this episode, Jeff (@Jeff_FOTD) is joined by co-hosts James (@DrJimmyTerror) and Shawn (@TheLiberalDead) to tackle 1987's infamous kind-of-sequel Silent Night Deadly Night Part 2; aka the one with "Garbage Day."

Is the film's bizarre clipshow structure watchable, or does it make the guys want to give Director Lee Harry a fat luimp of coal? How exactly did this movie come to be? Why do people think this movie is a "classic"? How many times does Eric Freeman raise his eyebrows? Why do all men in this franchise tear womens' shirts off?

Find the answers to these questions here - along with talk of the film's production history, themes and plot points, reception, and its place in the franchise. As always, the guys give you a straight shot on whether or not it's worth your time and/or money.
