Rare Exports (2010)

Director: Jalmari Helander

Synopsis:
In the mountains of Finland a corporation digs up the real Santa Claus. Soon children of the village start to disappear. Some locals capture Santa and attempt to blackmail the corporation in buying him back before Santa's elves free him.

My Take:
A very interesting take on the lore of Santa Claus. It's a movie that doesn't take itself too seriously and the because of this the humor works.

Rating: So Good
