Like a bad 80s slapstick comedy
No idea why I ended up watching this, I saw it online and clicked play as it had a high rating.
Basically a guy starts a new job at this shopping mall ( we never really see the Mall and at first I thought he was at a small convenience shop )
It's Xmas Eve they tell you this at the start and there is a seedy Santa and a big boobed trashy blonde elf to keep up the Xmas spirit.
We have some flashback sequences of all the stores workers interviews, This sets up everyone's one dimensional stereotype, nice !!!
From there they discover a dead body and bag of money and they all argue/fight over what to do and who is the killer.
This a low budget film, possibly a homage to bad 80s films or just a bad film, who knows ???
It's pure corny slapstick with over exaggerated facial expressions and hammy dialogue.
It is shot and lighted well etc, and kind of passes all the basic filmmaking rules.
No soundtrack/music which was strange!!!
At times I was expecting to hear some Tom and Jerry cartoon type sounds or music, but nope.
I gave it a 4/10 being generous as it reminded me of 80s slapstick comedies and a few times I chuckled.
If your a bit bored and nothing else to watch and you like slapstick then try it. If not then I'd avoid it.
An average corny 4/10.

First Rate Christmas Comedy Horror with a Delightfully Wicked Cast
Stupendously splendid tale about moron employees at a hardware store fighting for a bag of money and their lives on Christmas Eve. Gloriously told through the eyes of the newly hired Dave, this is a superbly wonderful romp through horror comedy tropes chock full of holiday cheer and a bit of blood.
A pair of dimwit bank robbers stash their stolen loot in a hardware store and it gets discovered by an even more dimwitted staff. They all want the money, but someone keeps plucking them off, one by one. Who is the killer and who will get the money? It doesn't really matter because this cast is uproariously funny and packs some major talent (see also Amber Jean as Santa's Elf for even more talent).
I died laughing about 19 times watching this movie (Otto also dies about 19 times, which is another story). This is a horror comedy for the ages and will now been added to my annual Christmas Movie Extravaganza Weekend for this holiday and beyond.
8/10 (+1 for the gut-busting outtake reel on the DVD) = 9/10 stars total

A Good n' Funny Good Time
So we watched this tonight and enjoyed it. First things-- we didn't see a movie rating on this anywhere but it is definitely an R rated film. If you have kids this probably isn't the movie you want to be taking them to see because it's not a cartoon and it's definitely full of adult stuff (drugs/nudity) and DEFINITELY adult language (I won't go into details but I feel like this movie could be on par with a Quentin Tarantino movie in terms of numbers of bombs dropped). This movie is not for the easily offended types, and not for those without a good sense of humor. Or the faint of heart because there are some scary parts.
Now with all that said, we thought this was a really good movie. I for one laughed my behind off. We liked the jokes and we liked the story line, which follows the poor new kid at the store on his first day, which happens to be Christmas Eve. All the characters were different and funny and definitely do some screwed up stuff. But hey, there's karma for that. (Hint: A lot of them die!)
Overall we thought this was a fun enjoyable movie with some good scare moments (though it is more of a comedy) and definitely some good laughs. As I mentioned it is not going to be for everyone but if you are just seeking a funny good time then you will enjoy.
