John Russo’s 1996 Horror Movie ‘Santa Claws’ Now Available on Blu-ray from Terror Vision
Our friends over at Terror Vision have just put their latest release up for grabs, giving the John A. Russo-directed 1996 Christmas horror movie Santa Claws its Blu-ray debut.
“From the co-creator of the horror classic Night of the Living Dead comes a seasonal tale of terror, madness, and murder that will chill you to the bone.
“Sexy B-Movie Scream Queen Raven Quinn won’t be having the happiest of holidays this year. Her marriage is falling apart, and Wayne – a quiet next-door neighbor – has developed a macabre obsession for her. As Wayne’s delusional fantasies grow more dangerous and bizarre, he transforms into the most frightening serial killer ever to stalk the streets on a cold winter’s night…Santa Claws! Mercilessly butchering anyone who stands between him and the object of his psychotic desire, the red-suited maniac tracks Raven down to the set of her latest erotic horror movie. Here the grim madness of reality collides head-on with cinematic fantasy in a blood-frenzy of psychopathic mayhem, leading up to a shocking confrontation between Raven and this unstoppable monster that will have you shivering with fear.
“Terror Vision is proud to present, for the first time on Blu-ray, a new 4K scan of the original 16mm camera negative to this oddball Christmas extravaganza.

When best friends Glen (Stephen Dorff) and Terry (Louis Tripp) stumble across a mysterious crystalline rock in Glen’s backyard, they quickly dig up the newly sodden lawn searching for more precious stones. Instead, they unearth The Gate — an underground chamber of terrifying demonic evil. The teenagers soon understand what evil they’ve released as they are overcome with an assortment of horrific experiences. With fiendish followers invading suburbia, it’s now up to the kids to discover the secret that can lock The Gate forever . . . if it’s not too late.
If you’ve never seen The Gate, it’s now streaming on Prime Video and Tubi.
