  Santa Claus: Looks like Grandpa got ran over by a reindeer.  "He's making a list... pray you're not on it." Well Santa's Slay is exactly what you would expect from a killer Santa movie featuring Bill Goldberg. I actually had a pretty good time watching it, even as it got a little tiresome near the end. The producers and director where smart though and knew that they shouldn't overstay their welcome and stopped after about 70 minutes. Anymore and I would have disliked it much more.  Obviously this isn't high class filmmaking at work. It's a fucking killer Santa demon, so it's going to be stupid. If you don't like stupid, B-movie horror then don't watch it. I love reading reviews from people who watched this movie and then complained about it being stupid. Read the synopsis. They weren't hiding it; that is the appeal.  So the good Santa we have seen for the last 1000 years is a result of a bet he made with an angel. Now Santa's time is up and he is ready to get back to what he is really about... killing. The cast actually isn't that bad, with some decent character actors, a cameo from James Caan and the beautiful Emilie de Ravin, who I think I might just be in love with. Bill Goldberg makes for a pretty good, humorous and huge Santa.  Not a bad movie to start the Christmas season off with. Normally I'll watch something like Miracle on 34th Street to get started, but a movie with a killer Santa just seemed a little more interesting.

  Bought this film for 4$ at a used DVD store. I had heard about this film and how funny and terrify it was. Santa's Slay is a terrific above average Comedy Horror film with plenty of laughs and awesome kills. This is one of the best B horror films I have ever seen. The thing that surprised me the most was that Brett Ratner produced this film, and considering he butchered the third X men film and directing those awful Rush Hour films, he does manage to produce something good here. Santa's Slay is high on laughs, and to compliment the high amount of laughs, there is a high body count. If Halloween is traditional Halloween viewing, then Santa's Slay is traditional viewing for the Christmas Holidays. A terrific Comedy-horror film.

  Didn't expect much from this movie, but it turned out to be somewhat enjoyable, as Bill Goldberg was a riot. It definitely has a sick twist to the story of Christmas, but taken with a sense of humor and you will be alright. Those who have rated it low, I believe you were expecting a little to much. I would say its worth the 4 stars and a night of enjoyment.

  Starring Bill Goldberg. That says it all. That tells you how utterly shitty this film is and the pain it is to watch it. Goldberg's a killer Santa. I'm not even going to go even deeper into it beyond that fact. This guy was a failure as a wrestler, so you know an Oscar… More
  Starring Bill Goldberg. That says it all. That tells you how utterly shitty this film is and the pain it is to watch it. Goldberg's a killer Santa. I'm not even going to go even deeper into it beyond that fact. This guy was a failure as a wrestler, so you know an Oscar isn't in his future. This film is 78 minutes long (thank god) and you have to wonder which Arab prince threw money away on such a piece of garbage. It was nice to see The Nanny getting her head burned off, but why James Caan, why? Yes, this is the kind of movie that you scrape off your shoe after stepping on it in the front lawn. It belongs in a poopy bag at the park to be thrown away shortly after falling out of a dogs ass.

  It is funny someone from my friends said "what if Santa lost a bet in heaven and is an evil in real" I had to LOL. Finally a Movie represting Santa`s real face, He's making a list... pray you're not on it. It is over all more funny than creepy.

  A highly enjoyable slasher that knows exactly how to have fun. It manages to give us a different Christmas myth without pissing over tradition. You can tell how much you'll enjoy this after the first scene as Goldberg does away with the film's biggest stars. The FX are perfectly acceptable and the kills are funny and entertaining. It does the most with it's twists on Christmas traditions, and doesn't outstay it's welcome. An absolute Christmas treat.

  I found Santa's Slay in the budget priced DVD-bin, right where it should be. It's an entertaining movie with a few good laughs and it's cheap. What more can you possibly want? Don't expect too much from the leading role though, you'll get irritated with him sooner than you'll laugh with him. All the fun you get from this film, is from the scenes with Goldberg. It's almost as if this movie was made for him. He's quite believable as the Clause from Hell and does a good job. All the deaths are quite hilarious and his one liners are quite funny too. Keep an eye out for some guest appearances (James Caan, Fran Drescher,...) and you'll get even more laughs out of this flick. It can't even begin to stand up to other various holiday movies like Miracle On 34th Street, Santa Clause, Home Alone or even Die Hard, to name something completely different, but if you don't know what to watch, and you're in for a good time, take this one off your shelve and leave the rest. Goldberg will 'scare the Dickens out of 'ya', as he so vigorously puts it :-)

  Inland Empire was so bad it mad me give this shit heap half a star more.

  Santa is really a demon who loses a bet to a game of curl to Michael the angel, and has to do community service as a jolly gift giver. But his time is up, and now he kills people. Pretty ridiculous, but somewhat fun. In the first scene he kills a bunch of known actors who all play a quick cameo. Sadly, another film that tries to turn wrestlers into actors.

  Great opening sequence with Santa crashing a dinner party. Then it becomes silly with a few good kills. Bill Goldberg makes a good traditional Germanic-style Santa-demon. A boy and his girlfriend try to stop the evil-Claus with a lame solution. I liked when Santa crashed his sleigh… More
  Great opening sequence with Santa crashing a dinner party. Then it becomes silly with a few good kills. Bill Goldberg makes a good traditional Germanic-style Santa-demon.

  I was expecting a dumb-but-fun black comedy. What I got was a dumb black comedy that was trying hard to be fun, and sometimes succeeded, but often fell short of the mark. Bill Goldberg was hilarious as the film's titular villain, as were Chris Kattan and Fran Drescher as two members of a dysfunctional family that got butchered in the first scene, but a lot of the acting from the supporting cast felt a little too stagy. I would've preferred acting that was either natural, or painfully over-the-top (like the performances from the three aforementioned actors). That would've suited the tone of the movie better. Still, there are a lot of clever ideas in this movie. In particular, the flashback scene, done in the style of stop-motion holiday TV specials, was a nice touch. And I though the music was ingenious: The composer put deliciously eerie spins on classic carols, and I found a particular sample used quite amusing (a melody from <i>Fiddler on the Roof</i> plays during a scene where a group of Hasidic Jews encounter the evil Santa Claus). And there are quotable one-liners aplenty, only one of which made me cringe instead of laugh. And what would a black comedy be without morbid slapstick? Sure, there might not be <i>enough</i> morbid slapstick within the 1hr 20min ratio, but what <i>was</i> there was pretty damn funny. Disgusting if you think about exactly what's going on, yes, but funny in its presentation. In the end, however, I wanted more and less of what this movie delivered. Less staginess, more camp. But as a first-time effort by its director, and as a cheap rent, it could've been a lot worse.

  ''Santa's Slay'' needs to be considered more of a black humor comedy then a horror movie. I didn't find this movie very funny, just some chuckles, and there was not gore at all. If you watch it, don't expect a good/decent movie, actually don't expect much at all. Just watch it for some action moments, not the story.

  So bad it&#039;s funny with creative kills. Tongue in cheek horror comedy that knows what it is and doesn&#039;t try to be any more than that. Opening sequence has better actors than you would think would be in this.

• Stephen M

  
  Its hard to tell if the director was trying to make a scary movie and failed miserably, or if he was trying to make a comedy and did a pretty good job. It was funny, though.

  This has officially replaced "A Christmas Story" as my favorite Christmas movie. A superbad B-Movie.
