Christmas Bloody Christmas

I really did go into this film wanting to love it. However, I found it quite tedious. Too much dialogue, I was at the point when I was thinking 'stop talking' Could I keep going on and last the distance.

I know it is important to lay down the foundation of a story/plot, but at what point do you just get on with business.

I am not a big fan of horror Christmas movies. There has only been a select few that can even be called really good.

Unfortunately Christmas Bloody Christmas is not one of them.

It is a shame, because I was really liking the idea of the plot, it just fell way short in delivery.

Others might love it, and good on them for making a film.

Christmas Bloody Christmas (2022) is a movie that I recently watched on Shudder. The storyline follows a department store robotic Santa Clause that gets recalled shortly after they arrive in stores. One store decides to keep theirs through the holiday and quickly discover why they were recalled...

This movie is written and directed by Joe Begos (Bliss) and stars Riley Dandy (That's Amore), Sam Delich (Spiderhead), Jonah Ray (Victor Crowley), Jeff Daniel Phillips (3 from Hell) and Dora Madison (Bliss).

This reminded me of a cross between Silent Night Deadly Night and The Terminator. The ax scenes and kills in this are absolutely tremendous. There's some great gore, blood splatter and special effects throughout the movie. The soundtrack is also excellent. The acting and dialogue is solid, even if there are some forehand slapping opinions. The cinematography and use of lighting and colors is also very good. I did feel like they dragged out the ending a bit.

Overall, this is a unique addition to the holiday horror genre that's an absolute must see. I would score this a 6.5-7/10 and recommend seeing it once.

A first time rewatch since this movie originally came out The dialogue is mind numbingly boring We as a audience spend approximately the first 30 minutes listening to a very boring couple getting to know each other and the language made me blush (I don't blush easily) I heard a lot of people comparing the writing to a Rob Zombie movie I don't necessarily agree with that and yes I know some people who can't talk without cussing I personally have been accused of being able to out cuss a sailor back in my day But this just feels forced and unnecessary Background noise to me I just wish if they were going to spend so much time with our two lead characters That they would have spent more time on character building But once the action starts it's a pretty cool movie "Terminator Santa" rocks in my opinion.

If you are expecting what the trailer shows - a cheezy, blood, guts and gore movie about a military Santa running around killing people. Then, you'll like the movie. It's not pretending to be anything other than what it is.

I thought it was fun and campy, and of course a bit cliche, but that's what I was looking for.

It's the best Xmas movie I've seen in years!

If you're looking for some deeply intellectual entertainment - this is not for you.

RECOMMENDATION: grab a few beers, put the kiddies to bed, and enjoy some senseless Terminator style violence = just with more blood, and a worse story line!

What a deeply unpleasant bunch of people inhabit this town. Pretty much every single character can't complete a single sentence without punctuating it with the f-bomb several times a syllable. Their interaction with each of their companions gives the word 'shallow' new depths of meaning. And when the Robot Santa begins his reign of axe-fuelled mayhem, you find yourself hoping that every one of the cast are gathered in one room so the slaughter will be quick and thorough, and we can present Robot Santa with a well-earned cup of tea and a medal for rescuing us from such a vacuous bunch of idiots.
