Silent Night, Deadly Night 3: Better Watch Out! (1989)


After a good first installment and a garbage retread, we split the difference with a ho-ho-hum sequel to the SNDN franchise. Laura is a blind girl with latent clairvoyant abilities, undergoing experimental sleep studies where she shares a psychic link to a survivor from the last film. I kinda liked this one; it attempts to do something different with the series. But with so many directions it could have gone, but it settles for the road most travelled. The whole thing feels staged in slow motion and bound to put you to sleep with milk and cookies.
