VOD: “A Visit to Santa”

Just in time for the holidays, RiffTrax presents our take on A Visit to Santa, a Christmas short of unknown origin that most probably was the result of Santa’s short-lived collaboration with the producing team of Screwtape and Wormwood. Rather than being a right jolly old elf, Santa here is depicted as the Dark Prince of a vast slave empire made up entirely of children under 10 – it’s Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom with less dignified clothing. Or put another way it’s Manos: The Hands of Fate without the elephantiasis.Mike, Kevin and Bill fall on it like a Christmas goose in a brand new downloadable video!
