comment
A 2005 Horror/Comedy, starring Bill Goldberg as Santa.It's Christmas once again. Family dinner, yuletide feelings, all that. But there's something different about this Christmas. Namely, Santa. Turns out all the stories about Santa are fake. Namely, Santa's not a jovial giftgiver like his tales claim. He's the spawn of Satan, who was defeated in a curling match with an Angel. As such, he was sentenced to deliver presents to the world for 1000 years as punishment.And the 1000 years are up. And Santa decides to make up for lost killing time in the quaintly named Hell's Township. It's up to a teenaged boy named Nicholas Yuleson to put a stop to this Red Christmas, and put "Saint" Nicholas down once and for all.

Actor Allusion: This movie doesn't even try to hide that Santa is played by Bill Goldberg. Hell, at one point they even play his theme song! And he sets one of his kills by using his trademark Spear. And after the credits, he looks at the camera (looking up from a Naughty/Nice list) and uses his 'Who's Next?' catchphrase.

comment
Screw the Rules, I Make Them!: The grandfather/angel challenges Santa to another curling match with the stakes being Santa becomes good forever if he loses, and the angel is sent to hell if he wins. Santa provides the curling 'circle', a portal to hell, and when the angel manages to get a curling stone very close to the hole, making his win seem likely...Santa just grabs the angel and slide/throws him into the hole, 'winning' the match by default.
