Hey,

A bitter hit man on a job at Christmas in New York City realizes his life sucks and that he wants to get out of the business. Things don’t go according to plan. Long before hit men became the subjects of crime films and rattling off one-liners and existential gibberish, “Blast of Silence” took the story to its logical conclusion at the same time landing a hard right on the jaw of Christmas movies.

Shot on location in New York City, in black and white, this is a brutal look at humanity that has no time for redemption. Using a cast of unknowns that remained unknown (with the exception of Lionel Stander, the narrator) works in its favor.

Written, directed and starring Allen Baron with Molly McCarthy, Larry Tucker, and Peter Clume, among others. Cinematography by Merrill Brody (who also produced) and music by Meyer Kupferman.
