Set in a small Finnish village near the North pole, a group of men discover what they think is the real Santa Clause. Unbeknownst to them, he is an ancient, evil spirit punishing naughty children. Rare Exports is a dark and clever horror tale with a minimalistic plot, decent performances, and a thrilling atmosphere. Lacking common horror movie tropes, this independent feature shines because of its witty plot and its great use of music to highlight the more thrilling scenes.Overall 7/10 Full review on movie-discourse.blogspot.de

I just saw "Rare Exports" on Netflix. It is listed on Netflix under the movie title "Rare Exports- A Christmas Tale". This is one was of the darkest Santa Claus tales I have ever seen. It's definitely not good for small kids, unless you wish to scar them for the rest of their life. However if they are a teen, or Walking Dead Fan, I'm sure they will love the movie. Even though the opening is in English, the movie is in English subtitles. The movie flows and is quite suspenseful. Now if you love a horror Christmas Classic, you will not be disappointed. I might put a "bear trap" in my fireplace after seeing this one and suggest you do the same. "Rare Exports" gets 4 out of 5 stars from me.

This movie was thoroughly disturbing. I can withstand the storyline to a point, right up until they show one of "Santa's Elves." They are naked old men, and I MEAN FULL DONG NAKED. Don't watch this "Santa" movie with your kids, this is not a children's movie. Maybe in Finland it's normal for kids to see full grown men naked... Everything up to that was OK, no amazing special effects, just one CG moment when you see "Santa" in a huge frozen block of ice. He doesn't even get unfrozen to interact with the plot at all. Sorry about the spoilers, I tried to reveal as little as possible, unlike the people who thought it was sensible to make a Santa movie with dozens of naked men in it. There's another classification for those kinds of movies: Gay Porn.
