Better Watch Out… Better Not Cry… Or You May DIE!
A young boy sees mommy having sex with Santa Claus (this seems to turn a lot of people crazy in these movies) and grows up Christmas-obsessed. He has his own “Naughty and Nice List” and takes Holiday cheer seriously…very seriously. If any adults are mean to Santa, they get a punishment a little worse than coal.This movie was definitely odd. It was odd because of one scene, in which the psycho Santa brings toys to kids in a hospital. It actually… warmed my heart. Yes. Christmas EVIL warmed my heart. I felt horrible for the killer, as the director intended. It’s like a Christmas Slasher version of Frankenstien, where the villain is tragic and just in his killings. Plus, both feature a town of mobbing people with torches. But there were little scene scattered about, the end scene, the toy scene, that actually… made me happy. So it manages to scare AND celebrate Christmas at the same time.
Oh boy, what am I saying? All in all it’s a weird ass film that’s pretty entertaining. 7/10. HO HO HO! MERRY Christmas!
A Bit Slow For a Slasher
A toy factory worker (Fiona Apple’s father), mentally scarred as a child upon learning Santa Claus is not real, suffers a nervous breakdown after being belittled at work, and embarks on a Yuletide killing spree.I had a copy of this movie on my desk for over a year (thanks, Vinegar Syndrome) but somehow never found the time. Finally, in December 2016, I put it in and gave it a watch. And, sadly, despite a few good scenes and the possibility of this being the first killer Santa movie, it runs a bit too slow and too long to be a really strong slasher.
On the bright side, it has Jeffrey DeMunn before he really became a horror icon through his work with Frank Darabont.
