Rare Exports - A Christmas Tale... Santa's Gotten All Nasty!

Here he is, Santa is all dressed up and ready to go, but not to give out presents to the kids it seems...

CHRISTMAS JUST GOT NASTY.

"It's Christmas Eve in Northern Finland and an archeological dig has just unearthed the real Santa Claus. But this particular Santa isn't the one you want coming to town - this jolly old man is more of a foe than friend.

When the local young children begin mysteriously disappearing, a young boy and his father capture the mythical being and attempt to sell Santa to the misguided leader of the multinational corporation sponsoring the dig. Santa's elves, however, will stop at nothing to free their fearless leader from captivity."

This 'darkly humerous nightmare' has all the classic traits of a great family xmas thriller... But just remember, You'd better watch out!



Rare Exports - A Christmas Tale is out on December 3rd 2010.
