   Recently I've purchased some films involving horror at Christmas, the ones I have so far are Christmas Evil, Silent Night Deadly Night, and Silent Night Deadly Night 2. Before watching these I kind of wanted to build up more of a collection. So does anyone know of any others, I'm also aware of Silent Night Bloody Night and Black Christmas.

Kronos- x-mas is never really mentioned, but there are subtle things like x-mas trees in the background.  plotwise it's an hour and half long twightlight zone episode. it's also sub-titled, which some people don't like.  On the plus it's well directed, looks good and the acting is good.  I think timeline wise in the movie it starts during the x-mas season and ends around new years.

Jack Frost- i've watched this every x-mas since it came out.  there's a review on the website.

and last of all

Gremlins- go with the original stay away from the second.

what was the movie or tv show with the maniac dressed as santa who was trying to kill this woman in her house by getting in?

That was an episode of "Tales From The Crypt" called "And All Through the House." I only know this because I caught the episode on AMC and the next day I saw it on a DVD in the Walmart cheap-bin.

Gremlins had a Christmassy theme.

As I recall, that episode of Tales from the Crypt was a remake of one of the segments from the TftC movie.

I've heard about some movie called "Elves." never seen it, but it looks rather stinky.
