Is ‘Silent Night’ on HBO Max or Netflix? How To Watch the Keira Knightley Movie

Who says horror movies are only for Halloween? Silent Night, a new horror-comedy from filmmaker Camille Griffin, is bringing a little spookiness to the holiday season this year.

Not to be confused with the other movie called Silent Night that came out this year—which is easier said than done, because that’s very confusing—this 2021 Silent Night stars Keira Knightley, Matthew Goode, Roman Griffin Davis, Annabelle Wallis, Lily-Rose Depp, Sope Dirisu, Kirby Howell-Baptiste, Lucy Punch and Rufus Jones. The story follows an extended family who gathers for Christmas at a country estate—only to discover that the apocalypse is coming the very next day. Maybe the producers should change the name of this Silent Night to Silent Knight, given that this is the one with Keira Knightley in it? Get it? See what I did there? Nevermind.

Anyway, Silent Night is set to release both in theaters and streaming on AMC+, which is sure to confuse audiences further, because what the heck is AMC+? Never fear, because Decider is here to help. Read on to find out where to watch Silent Night, and how to stream Silent Night on AMC+
