Again featuring Clint Howard and Neith Hunter, but in different roles.Coscr/coprod by B-horror fave Brian Yuzna (SNDN4)this addition to the tired series is about a young boy who is left mute following a traumatic experience. His mother decides to buy him a special toy to see if it will help him recover. Little does the young chappie know, he is about to get a serious dose of schlock therapy.
Her search leads her to a small toy store run by an old man named Joe Petto (Mickey Rooney) and his doltish, physically abused son Pino. But once she gets the toy home it seems to be possessed and have homicidal tendencies (CHILD'S PLAY, anyone?) So who is the fiend behind this madness? Your durn tootin' folks! IT'S RUMPELSTILTSKIN!!
Mildly watchable, with laughable FX. It's quite funny to see Mickey Rooney go gonzo. Especially in the movies final ten minutes. There is also a grisly, amusing scene in which an amorous couple is killed by possessed toys and some OK gore scenes in the movie's latter third. You can't argue that this entry killed the series. This series was dead from the word go.

I would buy it solely for the killer toys. This movie has it's moments, but it is mostly dry and devoid of any actual horror. The twist ending is stupid but SOMEHOW makes sense. I would wait until they got this out on DVD along with the other three or four they're still missing.

2.0 out of 5 stars Better than part 3 and 4 but stick with the first, December 31, 2004

A Kid's Review

This review is from: Silent Night Deadly Night 5 [VHS] (VHS Tape)

Silent Night,Deadly Night is owes more to Child's Play and Demonic Toys than a sequel to SN,DN part 1,2,and 3 but this one is better than part 3 and 4 but Mickey Rooney was wasted for the role as Joe Petto a drunk toymaker who abuses his oddball son Pino at least director Martin Kitrosser could have found someone better and the acting is horrendous and Screaming Mad George's special effects looked cheap but this offers more laughs than scares and the dark sense of humor fits in right.The SN,DN series is mediocre and if only they were made better after part 1 the series would have been decent but the reason this one is better than part 3 and 4 is because you could laugh and make fun of and instead part 3 and 4 are slow-paced and dull.Rent but stick with part 1
