You Better Watch Out (1980)


 

A toy factory worker, mentally scarred as a child upon learning Santa Claus is not real, suffers a nervous breakdown after being belittled at work, and embarks on a Yuletide killing spree. 

Remarkable horror thriller is more a excellently played psychodrama than an exploitation flick; the ending is a bit over-the-top, though.

Maltin***: "Gripping, well-made thriller...with Maggart excellent as the psychopathic Kris Kringle. A sleeper with cult status possibilities."
