Trivia
One of several holiday-themed horror films that followed the success of Halloween (1978) in 1980. The notable difference here is the murderer's face is revealed early on; he isn't masked until the finale of the movie.
Quotes
Richard Sullivan:
I'm a man of God, not a man of violence!
Goofs
At one point a psychiatrist says that the killer is "mutilating" the breasts of his victims, however, when the bodies of the murder victims are found there are no injuries to their chests at all.
Crazy Credits
During the closing credits crawl the speed of the crawl visibly speeds up after the cast but then slows again toward the end for the soundtrack credits.
