when you make a film with a killer kid premise and there be two effective way to approach it while you can either make it as realistic a possible and create believable character and situation and or you can make it as fun a possible by play it for laugh ( something which the maker of silent night and deadly night do and for example and on an equally controversial subject represent a killer santa ) . the people who make bloody birthday and however and do neither of those thing while they simply rely on the shock value of the image of a kid with a gun ( or a knife and or a noose and or an arrow ) in his or her hand . the result be both offensive and stupid . the whole film look like a bad idea that be rush through production ( and then keep from release for several year ) . it redeem a tiny bit by good performance from the kid and but it very sloppily make . ( half ) .
