Is the movie Silent Night, Deadly Night available on Netflix, Disney+, Prime or Apple TV+?

Here at Stream Tracker, I keep tabs on where cult horrors show up so you don't have to dig through the snowdrifts. Silent Night, Deadly Night (1984) flips the usual yuletide cheer on its head: after a killer in a Santa suit murders Billy Chapman’s parents and a sadistic nun torments him in an orphanage, adult Billy’s appointment as a mall Santa becomes the spark that sends his buried trauma into a violent spiral. Not an award-winning picture, it’s earned notoriety and cult status for its sleigh-bell iconography and grim take on Christmas. In this article I’ll check whether you can stream it on Netflix, Disney+, Prime Video or AppleTV+ and explain the best current options to watch.

Synopsis

As a child, Billy witnesses a man dressed as Santa Claus murder his parents, then survives the harsh cruelty of a sadistic nun in the orphanage. Years later, pressed into duty as a last-minute department-store Santa, the adult Billy finds those buried traumas resurfacing—and he slowly unravels, pushed to a dangerous breaking point.
