New York City’s annual SantaCon. Many residents consider it the worst day of the year. Who among us hasn’t been going about their life on a brisk December morning only to realize, with slowly encroaching dread, that there are an unusually high number of Santas about? And in the blink of an eye you’re fighting for your life.

The lives of the plastered, the merry, and the not-so-bright converge for an evening of harrowing holiday hell in this scathing new comedy, which parodies the infamous yearly event.
