Santa slays the townsfolk of Hell and all hell breaks loose.
Back in the day, I marked out hard for Bill Goldberg. It was at the height of the "Monday Night Wars." My friends and I would switch back and forth between Raw and Nitro. But, when Goldberg was on, there was no channel flipping. Most matches went like this: Bell rings. Spear. Jackhammer. 1-2-3 Pin. We didn't care; we loved the guy. So, how fuckilious™ and fucktastic™ is it that I got to watch a personal hero of mine, play a killer Santa and fuck some motherfuckers up. If you don't know who Goldberg is, or what the Monday Night Wars are, you never experienced Real Wrestling Entertainment.
Santa's…
Many here on LB gave this film two stars under the excuse that humor is subjective, but in my opinion, this is a movie that delivers on the promise and lives up to expectations of what you would expect from a B-level shlock flick that turned Santa into a murderous, satanic angel who seeks only to inflict pain and slay anyone who crosses his path.
Goldberg seems to be having a blast, and watching these people die in this town is thrilling and fun. Speaking of fun, there is an incredible amount of funny one-liners in this film, especially at the end. No one involved is a thespian, but everyone understood the task and delivered big time.
All in all,…
First rewatch. I love how he sanitizes the stripper pole before using it as a murder weapon. He may be a Killer Santa but he's not trying to catch herpes.
If you want to watch Bill Goldberg punt a dog into a ceiling fan on Christmas, then boy do I have the movie for you!
So, apparently, Santa isn’t a jolly old guy who gives presents to good little boys and girls. He’s actually a ripped demon daddy who lost a bet to an angel and is forced to give out presents...until the bet is over.
WHO. KNEW.
I love the idea and the opening scene is just the BEST. Honestly, I’m giving this an extra half star just for that scene because I could watch it all day, every day. But, then I was a little bummed to find it was the only part Fran Drescher was in because I unashamedly love her and was excited to see this because of her. Still, she’s great in the bit she’s in.
The rest of the…
Santa Daddy!
Still got a couple of Xmas movies to knock out. This one is cute. Yeah, it could be cuter, but it’s got a couple of brilliant moments and the opening scene is amazing. I really wish Fran Drescher was in the whole movie, but I take what I can get.
Bill Goldberg is great as muscle Santa daddy and this should have had at least a half dozen sequels by now.
We're trapped in a closet on Christmas with Santa trying to murder us. How fucked up is that? 😄😅
Hey, that's not Santa. That's Goldberg, the man who destroyed Bret 'The Hitman's' wrestling career in a few seconds. Ho ho 🫣 😄 " Goldberg Goldberg Goldberg 🤯🧐 Why Can't They Play His WWE Entrance Music in This Movie? 😜
A December to remember 🎄 🎄
My man, this movie is freaking great. Haha, ho ho. I mean, Santa is kind of a punk in this movie. This movie is telling that Santa is the son of Satan 😱, so Christmas is literally a slaying day for him to kill all people on Christmas, like Michael Myers on an October type…
Oh my God you guys... it's that movie that they were making in Ernest Saves Christmas! One can only hope that Goldberg went on to be the real Santa Claus after filming wrapped up.
You can’t top that opening! Sweet baby jesus.
I was so hoping this wouldn’t shit the bed half way through and you know what, it kept its momentum.
Loads of chaotic fun, like a demented, “R” rated Disney Channel Original. Even the credits were fun.
The soundtrack was GREAT. Some of those one liners had me DYING, but there are also some really clever moments in it that made my soul happy.
A new yearly watch for sure!
Santa’s Slay is one insane flick. It’s a slasher film where Santa enjoys killing folks on his naughty list in imaginative and gruesome ways, with a legendary professional wrestler cast as the big man himself, Bill Goldberg. It’s not the fact that Santa is a creative, brutal killer that makes the movie unique, it’s that director David Steiman’s film feels like the hard R version of a Hulk Hogan movie. Think Santa with Muscles but with holiday themed MDKs and strippers. It’s got plenty of C list celebrities who are way past their prime, a lead “actor” who’s 100% out over his skis, and a script with an over-reliance on bad puns and groan inducing jokes.
I liked it!
How…
"I've been good" *Santa proceeds to hit her with a table leg*
Slight spoiler: Bill Goldberg hits Lee Donowitz with a spear through a deli counter. No sign of a jackhammer, though I am afraid to say. Poor form.
I have always avoided this. As a Bret Hart fan, it has always bothered me that this dumbass ended the career of one of the greatest wrestlers of all time with an ill-timed kick. This year, I decided to set my feelings aside and give it a chance. If anyone could make an entirely unwatchable Christmas horror film, it would be Bill Goldberg! Surprisingly, that wasn’t the case here. It pains me to admit it, but the movie was quite good.…
