Earlier this week, I suggested a nice, horrific Christmas movies for all of you who prefer something less sickeningly sweet and more sickening for your holiday viewing pleasure. Today I have another one, a 2010 dark comedy/suspense film from Finland entitled Rare Exports: A Christmas Tale. This film is all about the creep factor, but doesn’t take itself too seriously – a kind of zombie flick meets A Christmas Story, but in the frigid Scandinavian north and with a seriously creepy evil Santa. And like many foreign film exports from countries that many North American non-film buffs don’t pay any attention to, it’s done well, with style and attention to detail. No lowest-common-denomenator bro laughs here. Ok, maybe a couple, but they’re good. So enjoy the hunt for Evil Santa below with Rare Exports: A Christmas Tale… (rent it HERE).
