What it's about

Young Pietari lives with his reindeer-herding father in arctic Finland. On the eve of Christmas, a nearby excavation makes a frightening discovery and an evil Santa Claus is unleashed…

The take

Not your typical Christmas movie by a long shot, but my favorite. A young boy lives with his reindeer herder father in northern Finland. An archaeological expedition unearths the *real* Santa Claus...you know, the one that likes to abduct little kids. Sometimes funny, sometimes scary, sometimes heartwarming, always dark, this tale of a boy, his father, and their friends will forever change your perception of that jolly old elf.
