Horror fans, mark your calendars. Cineverse has officially announced that Screambox will be the exclusive streaming home for the 2025 reimagining of “Silent Night, Deadly Night.” After a successful digital run, the holiday slasher is set to deck the halls with blood on the platform starting April 28, 2026.
Directed by Mike P. Nelson (“Wrong Turn”) and starring Rohan Campbell (“Halloween Ends”) and Ruby Modine (“Happy Death Day”), this isn’t a simple shot-for-shot remake. While it stays true to the 1984 original’s premise—following Billy’s annual spree of holiday violence after witnessing his parents’ murder—this version introduces a twisted psychological layer. This time, Billy’s blood-soaked mission collides with an unexpected romance that forces him to confront the darkness within.
In addition to “Silent Night, Deadly Night,” Screambox is unleashing a killer lineup of special new programming, including the following, coming soon:
- Bloody Bites: Season 17 (Streaming April 3) – Bites-sized horror short films presented by Bloody Disgusting and Scotchworthy Productions.
