Silent Night (2021) | comment |
Silent Night is a 2021 British Christmas-themed apocalyptic Black Comedy written and directed by Camille Griffin and starring Keira Knightley, Matthew Goode, Roman Griffin Davis, Lucy Punch, Kirby Howell-Baptiste, Annabelle Wallis, Rufus Jones, Lily-Rose Depp and Sope Dirisu.Nell (Knightley) and Simon (Goode) are hosting a Christmas dinner party at their posh country estate for a group of family and friends. Their "perfect" soirée is dampened, however, by the prospect of the rapidly-approaching, climate change-induced toxic storm that is spreading across the Earth. As the friends eat, drink, and party, they also face the moral dilemma of how to handle their inevitable impending deaths.Not to be confused with Silent Night (2012), a loose remake of Silent Night, Deadly Night or the 2023 action film. | |

Apocalypse Anarchy: Downplayed, the most that happens is two characters robbing a supermarket for some sticky toffee pudding offscreen and some very blunt conservations. | |

Cosy Catastrophe: Deconstructed. The catastrophe presented is very cosy, complete with Christmas presents, nice food and sweets, sticky toffee puddings, and charades. However, Art rebels and rages against the cosiness. | |

Art, an eight-year-old boy, is left alone in a world where potentially the vast majority of the population, with the possible exception of "the poor and homeless people", are dead. | |

Deliver Us from Evil | |
Silent Night (2021) / int_a9ba5cdc | comment |
Deliver Us from Evil: Discussed. Sophie is the only adult member of the family to have changed her mind about taking the pill, because she's pregnant and it would mean "killing" her baby. At the end, she does eventually (albeit very reluctantly) agree to take the pill, because James says he'll only kill himself if she does, too. And then the ending heavily implies they could have survived anyway. | |

Sadistic Choice: The film opens with Simon releasing the family’s flock of chickens because Nell’s mother believes it is kinder to let them be killed off by predators than die in the approaching storm. Two sets of parents face the decision to give their children suicide pills in order to spare them a drawn-out, painful death. Another character discovers she's pregnant and her baby will die no matter what she chooses. | |

Both Sides Have a Point: Art and Sophia are against giving up and committing suicide because it’s possible the governments/scientists could have got something wrong and the apocalypse is actually survivable, the others argue that they have no way to know if it is survivable and if they don’t commit suicide before it arrives they could all suffer agonising deaths while trying and failing to survive. | |

Ascended Fridge Horror | |
Silent Night (2021) / int_cc8b2fd | comment |
Ascended Fridge Horror: The characters constantly discuss how afraid they are of leaving their children alive alone. At the end of the movie, this is what happens to Art. Art insists that nobody knows if the fog will turn out to be that deadly. It's heavily implied that it makes you appear dead and then spares you, judging from Art's reaction. Simon and Nell discuss that "only poor and homeless people" are the only ones not to be given a Cyanide Pill. Which would mean these are the only people around who could possibly "care" for Art under any circumstances, if they even survived. | |

Died in Ignorance: Exaggerated in the closing minutes. Every single major character commits suicide before the poisonous gas rolls over and kills them excruciatingly. If they had only waited, they would've learned that it doesn't, and survived. | |
