Ladies and gentlemen, may I present the film that just might be my film for the holiday season:





Based upon a series of short films made as a joke, Rare Exports gives a whole new explanation for the story of Santa Claus. One that beats the hell out of St Nick, rips the spine out of The Santa Clause and makes The Night Santa Went Crazy look like a bedtime story.

I'm so going to see this when it premieres next Friday!

Just came back from the theatre. First of all, it was packed. I'm talking Lord of the Rings premiere or a better Harry Potter movie packed. Something that I didn't expect, considering the marketing for this movie was pretty low-key.

Not that it mattered, though. Man, that movie was something so different I can't even start to categorize. Part growing up, part Christmas story, part a skulking horror story, and a heaping of Finnish badassery served with a large side order of dark humour. I'm definitely going to add this to my DVD collection!

I saw this movie with a friend last night at the local art theater and it was awesome. There were maybe only 5 of us in the theater but I think everyone really enjoyed it. Piiparinen was definitely my favorite character.
