Infinite Santa 8000 [Blu-ray]
(Duane Bruce, Michael Neel, Tara Henry, et al / Blu-ray / NR / (2013) 2024 / Synapse Films)

Overview: It is the year 8000. The old world is gone. Not much remains, except for the mutants, scum, and robo-people. Humanity has been wiped out and everyone must kill to survive... even Santa! When his beloved Martha is kidnapped by the evil Dr. Shackleton, Santa and his robotic reindeer head out into the post-apocalyptic wasteland to rescue her.

Bloody carnage ensues as Santa fights his way through hordes of mutant creatures including bat-sharks, kill-bots and even a giant Easter bunny to save Martha and carry on the Christmas spirit.

Originally conceived as a multi-part web series, INFINITE SANTA 8000 has been re-imagined here in an all-new feature length Director’s Cut adding new scenes, re-animated and retouched shots, and recut to match the original script!

See the film the way it was always intended. Featuring a blasting heavy metal score, tons of blood and guts and exciting sci-fi action! You’ve never seen a Christmas movie like this one!

Blu-ray Verdict: Wow! Simply put, Infinite Santa 8000 is not your overly-typical, red-suited, ho-ho-ho jolly holiday hero, especially when you reimagine him as a grittier Mad Max/Terminator-esque robotic character, and one given to dressing up as St. Nick, whilst existing within a post-apocalyptic world!

That all said, this super stylish, well-animated feature film takes us into a world first explored in a 13-episode web series. Expanding on that universe, it pushes boundaries and takes Santa to hell and back, all while kicking butt and taking names!

Creators Greg Ansin and Michael Neel have a keen eye (and ear) for talent, and their efforts should be applauded. The film’s badassery is amplified by a thundering metal soundtrack composed by Anthony Resta, Todd Cuff, and Josh Cuadra. The soundtrack not only stands strong on its own but also sets the tone and enhances the film’s pacing.

Simply put, Infinite Santa 8000 starts with Santa going extreme in the robot battle and doesn’t let the foot off that form of visual weirdness gas pedal once thereafter!

The animation overseen by co-creators Greg Ansin and Michael Neel fits the mood and comic intensity to absolute perfection and so if you’re having a holiday party this year, Infinite Santa 8000 needs to be on your big screen TV, of this you can take as fact, my friends!
