    Saw this. Dear god I need to see this.


    It is Santa meets Nobody. Family is held hostage. Santa comes to the rescue and kicks ass. Amazing!

    I saw this trailer, twice, yesterday because I needed more. I cannot wait for this. It's going to be a lot of fun. David Harbour and John Leguizamo going at it on Christmas Eve in a bloody free for all? YOU BETCHA!

    I saw this pop into my feed yesterday. Was very curious about when this was going to pop up here. Looks like a soon to be classic. Campy idea waiting on an entertaining execution.

    Santa takes the opportunity to be a badass and let off some steam. Looks neat.

    Yes, it looks like a fun watch. Possibly with some good good action and laughs.

    Saw the trailer and was worried it was going to be a horror film.

    Instead it looks like Die Hard except it's Kris Kringle going John McClaine on the mercs.

    Looks like it'll be a fun film for sure.

    This got more of a Santa Meets Rambo type of vibe.

    knowing only the name, David Harbor, and seeing a poster, I walked into this thinking it was gonna be yet another Santa Claus horror slasher (which I’m a junkie for)

    Did not expect the Die Hard but even more explicitly as a Christmas movie.

    It’s streaming on Peacock. Not terrible... glad I didn’t pay for a theatrical showing.

    Almost shot for shot remakes of Die Hard with a touch of Die Hard 2.
    But I gotta say that when Santa gets a sledge hammer it’s great when he goes full John Wick.

    Of course the little girl got her shot at Home Alone... which is another Die Hard remake...
