Now, the bet has expired, and 1000 years of good cheer will be replaced by Christmas fear. This Christmas will be a violent night of chaos, with Santa bashing his way through town. Local boy Nicholas (Douglas Smith), his girlfriend Mac (Emilie de Ravin), and his crazy Grandfather (Robert Culp) are the only ones who know the truth about Santa, and can save their town and the world.
