The 4K UHD Blu-ray of 'Violent Night' offers a significant upgrade over the Blu-ray with a native 3840 x 2160p resolution, HDR10 without Dolby Vision, and a rich, stable color palette featuring deep blacks, sharp fine details, and robust primary colors—making it a visually impressive but incremental improvement.

Audio: 88

With a rich Dolby Atmos upgrade, 'Violent Night' delivers an immersive, ultra-crisp, and ultra-detailed audio experience characterized by clean dialogue, deep bass, and well-balanced musical scores, surpassing the previous 7.1 DTS-HD Master Audio mix with heightened spatial engagement and dynamic fidelity.

Extra: 61

The UHD release of 'Violent Night' offers a compact yet engaging set of extras including fun commentary with the film's creative team, minimal yet insightful behind-the-scenes featurettes, and nearly 20 minutes of deleted scenes, though some feel the content skews towards promotional fluff rather than substantive material.

Movie: 69

Violent Night's 4K UHD release refreshes a wild holiday action film with improved 2160p/HDR visuals and Dolby Atmos audio, delivering sharp details and balanced darkness, while David Harbour's brutal yet charming Santa adds hilariously gory twists to an otherwise traditional family hostage plot.
