This week on The Cover the boys unwrap the holiday fever dream known as Violent Night. Yes this is the one where Santa stops delivering toys long enough to deliver hands. We get into everything from the surprisingly sweet heart of the story to the deliciously chaotic Home Alone sequence that would put any insurance agent into early retirement.
