Warning: Spoilers
Have you been naughty? what about nice? Killer Santa is back again, and on the loose. First off, Koodos to the director of this wonderful hidden gem. A commando 10 year old kid gets left home alone with his grandpa. Mom goes out while a creepy french santa serial killer decides to try to sneak in. He gets hired as a mall santa and bashes a little girl in the face. AND kills a dog with a cake knife! (not kidding). Besides that, this movie is fantastic on so many levels. This kid is some kind of computer whiz and has a powerglove with a built in black and white moitor that resembles a payphone. He gets his revenge alright on this sick santa. The house has secret trap doors that go into closets, over ropebridges, and exits out of a fridge inside of the garage. Tracking devices, radars, and a rigged PA system in the house. Overall it was a fun little romp, highly recommend it if you enjoy horror or 80s action fantasy. its goofy, colorful, and one of the newest additions into my off beat Christmas movie list. 8 stars!!
