05/09/2021 I'm only gonna give "Psycho Santa" (dumb title btw) a full 1 star because it is slightly better than that piece of trash known as "Satan Claus" (also stupid title btw). The rest is hot garbage from start to finish. This movie along with Satan Claus cost me 20+ dollars. I feel very ripped off. Like really. 20 dollars for this crap? Yeah, I overpaid. I overpaid big time. The movie had a decent premise I won't deny that, but the way this movie was executed just ruined everything. Almost everything in this movie takes way too long, the camera work is horrid, there is no atmosphere, tension, nor suspense, the direction was piss poor, it tried to be somewhat of an anthology film, but it failed miserably to the point it's hard to follow the story that they're trying to tell here. I got no enjoyment out of this. It's boring, poorly executed, not scary, funny, or cool, it suffers really bad storytelling, there is a serious lack in some good gore to the point not even the blood is existent, horrible acting, do I really have to say anything more? This movie is an abomination and if you can actually enjoy this then you must have maximum patience by at least 1,000. 1/10. That's all I have to say. Bye. See more 12/24/2020 This movie is about a couple driving to a Christmas party and the husband or boyfriend starts scaring his wife or girlfriend by telling her about the murders that happened at the hands of Chris. Chris was sent to a mental hospital for having the mind of a 3-year-old, he escapes and comes home severely burned. His parents keep him in a room hypnotized and in a comatose state so he won't kill anyone. Two robbers plan a robbery but accidentally let him out and end up getting killed. Chris then kills a man dressed as Santa, steals his costume, and goes on a killing spree. Pretty interesting plot for a movie, right? Well, yes. But the movie is the polar opposite of interesting. The movie jumps from character to character to character, the pacing is absolutely awful as scenes tend to drag on forever. You never see the weapon embedded into the victim, instead, you see him raise the weapon, fade to black, and blood on the victim's body. The makeup effects for the killer's burned face are terrible, the soundtrack is absolutely ear piercing, and the acting is very bland! Not one good thing came out of this! See more 12/21/2012 There are plenty of movies that had a much smaller budget and still looked better than this. The movie is slow, dull, and badly edited. Some scenes (such as the shower scenes or the girl crawling on the floor) were way too long and completely pointless. The killer isn't original or scary, and the kills themselves are nothing worthwhile. The film felt like something a group of friends made with a home camera. See more 12/11/2011 Just when I thought there couldn't be a worse Christmas-themed horror film (other than Satan Claus)...Psycho Santa is an "anthology," with little to no dialog, professional women...and I don't mean actors, padded out scenes that should normally last less than a minute going on for at least 10 and it was obviously filmed in the summer. Nothing jolly here. See more 12/09/2010 '25 DAYS OF HELLIDAY HORROR' #8: PSYCHO SANTA (2003) The plot for 'Psycho Santa' was just all over the place! It opens with a pathetic looking evil Santa Clause stalking some girl in a field with broken down cars and tractors. They stretch out this stalking for about five whole minutes! Santa doesn't even kill her in the opening! How lame. Then the movie just makes some kind of terrible attempt at an anthology or in better terms, the combining of several stories into one. So it begins with some guy and his girlfriend driving to their friends house for the holidays. The guy tells the story of 'Psycho Santa' a hideously deformed, burned, retard that was locked away by his blind mother and his fearful father, or something like that. Anyways, he escapes, kills a guy in a Santa suit, takes the suit, goes and kills a few other people, some bimbos in a cabin, and then tries to kill a brother and sister who are lost in the woods after their car broke down...since that was the most logical thing to do ya know...wander off into the woods instead of staying on the main road and seeking help. There were many pointless, gratuitous scenes of nudity and girls in the shower. They could have briefly shown the shower scenes and stuff, but kept cutting back to Psycho Santa, and show him sharpening his machete or eating flesh, or something cool. I guess the T&A sort of saved this crap-fest in a way, but it still just seemed irrelevant and pointless. Overall: Yep, Psycho Santa was pretty awful. It was so low budget that it almost didn't even feel like a movie at times. B-Movies and Indie films are always great to watch, but this just did not cut it. The acting was terrible It seriously was just effortless and just sucked. It did have its good moments, but it took waaaaay to long to get to them. The sadest part was how lame the deaths were! It was amazing how cheesy some of them really were! Seriously, what was with the woman crawling across the floor to plug in the phone cord?? That death was so lame that it should have just been cut out of the movie. It wasn't even remotely bloody either! There were a few scenes that had some fake, 'halloween store' blood, but that was about it. It lacked any real story, overall ranking it pretty low on the scale of Christmas horror. The only really cool scene in the whole movie is toward the end when it reveals Psycho Santa's hideous, grotesque, burned face! His machete was pretty cool also. See more Read all reviews
