The only Christmas movie you need to see this year/ever

Things I learned from this trailer:  

  1. The national pass-time of Finland involves psychologically scarring the children of other nations.  
  2. Not all live action Christmas movies are lame.  

Rare Exports premieres in San Francisco tomorrow (Dec 17th) at the Landmark Opera Plaza on Van Ness (tickets here).  If you didn't watch the trailer, it's a Finnish film about an evil murderous Santa and some dudes who try to capture him, presumably for profit.  The film is actually based on a pair of short films from 2003, with a similar premise and starring many of the same Finnish actors.  The short films, Rare Exports Inc and Rare Exports Inc: The Official Safety Instructions are definitely worth a quick watch.
