Famous Movies That Have Been Banned All Over the World

Silent Night, Deadly Night

This 1980 slasher movie was intended to be just like the other popular slasher films that are connected to holidays. However, all the other slasher films are more connected to holidays that aren't Christmas. Parents in Brooklyn, Chicago, and Milwaukee all protested this film, which ended up getting the movie much more attention than its traditional marketing route got. So, in the end, the movie was boycotted, which is practically just an unofficial ban.
