This gonzo Finnish horror comedy has a freewheeling spirit all of its own, both frightening and surreal. It concerns a kid who stumbles upon an arctic excavation site. Seems like they’ve turned up the ancient tomb of the real Santa Claus, who is considerably nastier than we’ve come to believe.
"Rare Exports" mixes thrills with playful weirdness, the best example of which is the "elves" that assist the resurrected Santa (hint: they’re naked and very shriveled). This is a cult classic in the making.
