David Harbour (best known for "Stranger Things" and HELLBOY, 2019) is absolutely all-in for this far-from-glamorous portrait of jolly ol' Saint Nick. and Wirkola delivers the first shocking moment as Santa's barf keys us into the type of twisted tale we are about to experience. The booze numbs Santa's disgust as he heads off on his sleigh. greedy, self-centered kids who only want more video games. We first meet an inebriated Santa ("I'm on a break") at a local pub, where he explains to a mall Santa why he has become so disenchanted with the job. However, it's the season for charity and director Tommy Wirkola (HANSEL & GRETEL: WITCH HUNTERS, 2013 - sequel in the works) and co-writers Pat Casey and John Miller (the screenwriters behind the "Sonic the Hedgehog" films) have gifted us an extremely violent and often very funny Christmas present, replete with a sledgehammer-slinging Santa Claus. HO-HO-HO! Who is ready for the best ever Santa slasher movie? Admittedly, it's a narrow sub-genre and anyone that knows me or reads my reviews, knows full well that this is not the type of movie I typically recommend.
