Not Great...But Could Have Been Worse.

I fully expected this to be substantially worse than it actually is, considering it is more or less a D-grade film...and the premise is kind of weak.Don't get me wrong...it's still pretty bad.Just not AS bas as I expected it to be.The story here, revolves around a woman named Nikki, who ends up in a coma, after being attacked by Santa on Christmas Eve, in a way that made it look like she tried to commit suicide.When she wakes up from her coma- nearly a year later- no one believes her, when she tries to tell them what actually happened.That is...until he comes back to attack her and her friends, while they are held up in a remote cabin in the woods.Mediocre acting aside.The main problem it suffers from is, not only, a weak script...but also some really poor set design.I found it really hard to get over how bad the sets were.They felt so staged.Which really took away from the ambience of the film.There's also a major lull after the opening scene.As the focus shifts to lame relationship drama, prior to the horror kicking back in...which really disturbs the flow of the film.A good deal of the film attempts to establish lore that argues Santa is Satan...and that it's not logically consistent to believe in Jesus and Satan...but not Santa.Which isn't exactly good writing.It probably would have been much better if it didn't take so long to suss this all out...and just got back into the horror.Because you start to lose interest by the time Satan Santa makes their reappearance.With what ensues not being quite enough to win you back.To be frank...the only thing that saves this from being completely unwatchable...is the fact that the production quality is half decent (aforementioned issues aside).Though, I think it would have benefitted from being a short film.Instead of forcibly trying to draw it out like they did.Because it's just too slow, without enough action to justify- or make up for- the lulls.In their defense, however...they do attempt to give the drama purpose, with a twist.But you really have to force yourself to stick with it.Luckily, I went into this with extremely low expectations.That it somewhat- and somehow- exceeded.Though, certainly not by much.Because it is pretty bad.But at least it's short...because it certainly could have been worse.2 out of 10.

Santa Isn't Real is a disappointing and forgettable addition to the Christmas horror genre.

Santa Isn't Real (2023) is a film I recently watched on Tubi. The story follows a young woman who wakes up from a coma after being attacked by someone dressed as Santa on Christmas night-a tragedy that left her family dead. As she tries to move on by spending her first holiday out of the hospital with friends, it quickly becomes clear that the killer may have returned.Written and directed by Zac Locke (Float), the film stars Kaya Coleman (Beyond Black Beauty), Scarlett Sperduto (Wanted), Cissy Ly (Sad Eyes), and David Mitchum Brown (At War with Love).This is yet another low-budget film that feels every bit of its budget. The writing and acting are painfully weak, with circumstances and dialogue that come across as completely inauthentic. The storyline is overly simplistic, predictable, and capped with a twist that's easy to see coming. While the kills are passable at best, they don't elevate the film, though the "pillow princess" kill does stand out as the highlight.In conclusion, Santa Isn't Real is a disappointing and forgettable addition to the Christmas horror genre. I'd rate it a 3/10 and recommend skipping this one.
