Anecdotes
The basis of the film's script was originally meant for the third Silent Night, Deadly Night film, but ended up being used here after the makers of that film turned the original script down.

Gaffes
The numbers on Lonnie's house are backwards, which normally would indicate flipped footage, but that's clearly not the case as it appears this way in multiple shots of the house. For whatever reason, the production crew put the numbers on the house backwards on purpose.

Autres versions
The 1996 UK video version (titled "Bugs") was cut by 8 secs by the BBFC. A shot of a man hanging by his nipples was removed.

Initiation Silent Night, Deadly Night 4: Should just have been called Initiation

Silent Night, Dead Night 4 (Otherwise known as both Initiation and Bugs) is a weird one because it's another Horror franchise that ditches the original material and goes in a new direction altogether.

The first 3 movies were about the psychotic "Naughty" Caldwell brothers, this is oddly about a coven of witches and their bug themed birthing rituals and.....yeah, it gets a bit weird.

Starring industry legend Clint Howard and Phantasm alumni Reggie Bannister this isn't as bad as you'd imagine but it's a really weird choice to veer off so dramatically.

Okay fine it can work, Halloween 3 for example is my favorite of the franchise and has nothing to do with Michael Myers.

This is passable, but weird. Also not one for those with weak stomachs, some of it is really quite grosse.

A bizzare choice of content, but it could have been worse.

The Good:

Reggie Bannister, Clint Howard and Allyce Beasley are all great

Creature effects are great

The Bad:

Just plain weird

Simply not a Silent Night, Deadly Night movie

Things I Learnt From This Movie:
