On Christmas Eve in far north of Finland, a mysterious mining operation unearths an old secret buried 500 metres underground - the real Santa Claus. Soon after the discovery, strange events begin to occur. Animals are found butchered around the base of the hill and local children begin to mysteriously disappear. The dark truth about the Santa Claus myth is finally revealed. Far from the jolly laughing man who delivers bags of goodies with happy elves to help him, the Santa of legend is just that, merely a legend. The real Santa is a monster and his elves are equally as evil. A wildly humorous nightmare which will ensure Christmas will never be the same again.

Christmas Creeps & Chuckles

Zanna Clair on 31.10.2011

It's been almost a year since I saw this film at the cimema and I've been waiting with bated breath for it's release on disc. This comedy horror is an excellent addition to it's genre and I left the theatre with a sore face from smiling for the last 30 minutes of the movie. This is the first Finnish film I've ever seen and I was pleasantly delighted with the excellent quality in acting, effects and story. The feature length film was based on a short film that can be seen on youtube. Based in the original homeland of Santa Claus, Lapland, a local child - Pietari - notices some strange occurances surrounding the mysterious excavation site in the mountains nearby. Is the real Santa the jolly chuckling elf as seen in Hallmark cards, or is he a creature to scare children into good behaviour? There is some violence and gore, but nothing too over the top, older children may be able to brave this one. There is tongue in cheek references to every pop culture, annoying christmas
