Most undeservingly overhyped movie of all time??

Load of rubbish!!

Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.

There are moments that feel comical, some horrific, and some downright inspiring but the tonal shifts hardly matter as the end results come to a film that's perfect for this time.

Following her boyfriends' attempted infidelity, a woman joining her friends at a holiday getaway at a remote mountain lodge find themselves being stalked by an escaped deranged serial killer dressed as Santa Claus and forces them to band together to escape from the killer.Frankly, this one wasn't all that great of a Santa-slasher. One of the main problems with this one stems from the film's exceptionally low-budget look and feel which runs rampant throughout here and doesn't give this a chance at times. The cheap, cramped locations and just home-made look really give this one the overwhelming sense of a low-budget affair which is much grander than the type of story is supposed to tell which just makes the whole thing look worse than it really should. The technical aspects here, from the camera work to the editing and the sets, really screams low-budget quality and is done to the point of being detrimental more than it really is. That facet carries over into the special effects for the kills, which is a shame as there's quite a large body-count and simply throwing red-colored liquid along the walls and only showing the aftereffect of what he did with the body rather than seeing it play out on-screen. Cutting to black whenever it's supposedly going for a kill only to come back seeing what he actually did really screams a cheap, low-budget affair and hinders this one considerably. Likewise, the film also manages to feature that same utterly dreadful pacing that plagues so many British horror films of the recent millennium as this one drags on forever without any kind of enthusiasm in what's happening featuring characters so laid-back that they rarely seem interested in anything going on around them which tends to drop the energy level to a barely- breathing crawl here which ends up hurting the film overall as much as these other issues. The last flaw here is the decidedly weak and completely pathetic killer which doesn't really strike any ounce of fear looking simply like a homeless man wearing a cheap Santa jacket, offers up no real reasoning for the obsession with Santa or the holiday and comes off like a total joke in how easily he's dealt with in the end that this one really suffers for such a lousy job with the main villain. While these here hold it back, there's a few solid moments present when it counts. Even though it's most hurt by the effects used to create them, the fact that this has a decent- sized body count offed in a wide variety of manners is a nice point for it as this one does manage some rather intriguing ideas here with such a lot of deaths to feature. That manages to include the fact that there are a couple of highly- enjoyable stalking scenes here to generate that amount of kills, from the opening home invasion which results in the murder of the family before his eventual arrest, the escape from the sanitarium that includes some decent antics against the staff to get out and the scenes of him lurking in the surrounding woods makes for some decent enough stalking scenes. Things pick up nicely in the finale when he targets them in the lodge which has some better-than-expected confrontations and has solid enough action to keep it interesting in the big showdown using the atmospheric mountain lodge setting to fine effect throughout here in letting the action develop nicely. These issues here really help this one, although the flaws here really outweigh these.Rated R: Graphic Language, Violence, Brief Nudity and drug use.

Movies can't get much worse than this. Well, except maybe "Scrapbook". I only signed on here today to counter the good review that was posted on IMDb. That review was obviously written by someone related to the makers of "Christmas Slay". I don't know which thrift store this Santa got his red suit from, but my money's on Goodwill. Lots of those around here. Maybe they have them in Europe, too.I must say, though, that this drawing on the box of a demented Santa looks good. Impressive, even. It had me fooled. If only the producers went through the trouble to make their Santa half as believable, this film would've been worth it. All in all, bad direction, bad sets, bad acting, bad script, bad everything. Save your money and, instead, watch your two dogs playing in the front yard. That's infinitely more entertaining than this nonsense.

Besides the horrible camera work and lack of character development in the story the movie is not completely awful. It is a movie with horrible death scenes. I would be embarrassed to be in a movie like this. No thought was given by the director,if its cold outside don't have the actors complaining about it and walk around outside in underwear. Santa throws the ax sideways and it kills the boy as though he threw it straight down. Its snowing outside then moments later its not. Then we find a blonde's head in the toilet with no other traces of blood anywhere else. The crazy guy dances like a girl does his job poorly. Some fat guy lets Santa kill him. Thats right he lets him take his life without even trying to stop him, I play the wii fit games more enthusiastically than what that guy fights for his life. The doctor who sounds like a pervert is weird as hell. I still don't get it. The display of events is confusing at times and its hard to understand what is trying to be conveyed through the story. The day before Christmas 23! on Security Cameras. unless a day past in those cut scenes.One of the main characters friends is way older than the others and just makes it a joke.

Plot a group of girlfriend's travel to a cabin on the Christmas holiday but unaware of a Santa Claus killer.Yet this is another introduction into the killer Santa movies but this is by far the worse of them all. The storyline for starters really sucked it literally felt like that there was script written for this movie, like at all it really random people traveling out into the woods and being slaughtered. The camera work really sucked as well, it literally looked like it was filmed for someone's YouTube or something. I'm not really going to waste anymore time by explaining the acting or the death scenes because that all really sucked too. The movie is just a complete waste of time nobody so should really waste their time with it because god knows i wish i could turn back the clock.
