    I saw this the first time last year and I absolutley LOVE IT!! It’s campy but well acted, including a cameo or two that I won’t spoil. It’s balanced the spirit of xmas with a fun and goofy look at what if. Goldberg brings his over the top style to Santa which is hilarious….HO HO HO’s LMAO!!!! If you haven’t seen this you’re missing out, especially for Emille de Ravin.

    If you want to see one of the worst christmas horror and worst movies ever, then this is your movie. This is the only reason to watch this is to see how bad a movie can be. MERRY CHRISTMAS!

    A great cheesy comedy about Santa Claus actually being evil and unleashing death on whoever he visits. This more like a “Zucker Abrams Zucker” type of comedy. Those going into the movie expecting horror will be VERY disappointed, as you can see looking at the bad reviews here.

    A great horror-comedy with witty oneliners and Goldberg tearing shit up. Kicked off with a killer opening that rivals Ghost Ship, Santa’s Slay isn’t by any means a perfect movie but it’s great christmas fun, full of blasphemy and hilarious christmas themed slaughter.

    This has to be one of my favorite movies yet. Not because it is good, not even because it makes sense. The reason I like this movie is because WCW superstar Bill Goldberg spears a man through a glass counter while dressed as santa clause…I rest my case, however I will keep my rating unbiased by my love for that scene in the movie. This movie is not scary at all but is pretty freaking funny.

    You know I don’t even think this movie is supposed to be good. It’s just there. If it’s on TV during Christmas then you know I’m going to put it on. Unless Black Christmas is on original or remake I don’t care, but if that’s not on then I’ll watch Santa’s Slay.

    Exactly what I expected: “Santa’s Slay” is a stupid but highly entertaining xmas-horror-flick, of course not as great as “Silent Night, Deadly Night” or the two “Black Christmas” films, but still something I would watch again next year.

    It sure has its flaws. after a strong first hour, it gets quite weak and shiftless in the last third; the plot is rather lame and a few special effects look just horrible.

    Aside from that, it’s fun: Bill Goldberg as demonic Santa is just hilariously awesome! He looks just splendid, his kills are all terrific (the opening family slay incl. death by eggnog and death by chicken leg… OUTSTANDING!!) and his one-liners are mostly super-funny (I laughed my ass of when he’s in the strip club, shouting out “Ho Ho… (topless girl passes by) …HOE!”). The other actors are also pretty cool, especially Douglas Smith and Robert Culp.

    Other things that stayed in mind: the fabulous stop motion curling-scene, the ‘hell-deer’, the nutcracker-gun and of course the poor deli owner who gets killed with his ownmenorah.

    Overall, an enjoyable and amusing xmas cheesefest, perfect for the holidays!

    First five minutes: Santa punts a dog into a ceiling fan. Seriously. Not kidding. This is one of the best seasonal horror movies I’ve seen. The line “Move, bitch!” made my freaking Christmas. I will be watching this again next year.

Official Score: 1 / 5
