DIAL CODE SANTA CLAUS

Part of Midnight Movies and Holiday Classics.

Thomas is a typical 1980s kid. He loves computers, role-playing games and his dog. While mom is away at the office on Christmas Eve, Thomas and his grandfather are left home alone — perfect timing for a disgruntled, perverted, bloodthirsty Santa Claus to raid the home down the chimney. But Hell hath no fury like a mulleted 10-year-old with an arsenal of toys! Released a year before HOME ALONE, the French-made DIAL CODE SANTA CLAUS has almost the same plot — only filled with more style, bloodshed and Rambo references. 

Previously only available via VHS bootlegs, DIAL CODE SANTA CLAUS (aka 3615 CODE PÈRE NOËL and DEADLY GAMES) is your new favorite holiday slayride.

“Plays like a blend of classic Amblin and a grindhouse nightmare." —Jacob Hall, SlashFilm
