With Violent Night, Harbour will be participating in a grand cinematic tradition of killer Santas (and the even grander tradition of the puns surrounding them). However, typically those Santas are featured in horror films like the 2005 Bill Goldberg slasher-comedy Santa's Slay, the 2010 Finnish export Rare Exports: A Christmas Tale, and the widely protested 1984 cult classic Silent Night, Deadly Night. It is much more unusual to present Santa Claus as a straightforward action hero rather than a psycho killer, so this new project will have a brand-new flavor to bring to the table.
