Souped Up Santa

Souped Up Santa

2024 · 4 min · Comedy

“Everything you ever cared (or didn’t care) about Christmas is thrown into a blender and flailed at the wall in this angry five minute display of holiday doom and gloom. SOUPED UP SANTA stars Dante Fiallo in his usual state, this time as a backwards pavement pounding Santa, whose patience is tested one last time by a chippy little fella named Owl Jolson (played by Henry Camacho in a wonderful cartoon style)” - Roger Ebert, from beyond the grave
