Storyline

After ditching her Tinder date on Christmas Eve, record store owner Tori finds herself stuck with her employee Robbie for the night. But the night is still young. When the co-workers visit some friends in the neighbourhood, bent on binge-drinking and having fun, instead, they cross paths with Robo-Santa: an animatronic, military-grade killing machine. And as the malfunctioning unit embarks on a rampant killing spree in the town's snow-covered streets, Tori and Robbie must face a bloody battle against the odds and the electronic, axe-wielding Father Christmas. Now, a murderous Santa is on the loose, and everyone is on his naughty list. Who can stop the cold, brutal killer? — Nick Riganas
