Santa Claus vs The Devil (1959)

At this point you’ve probably heard Andy Williams say it 500 times…it’s the most wonderful time of the year and in the spirit of Christmas Camp we’ve gone into some deep cut low budget yuletide filmmaking that isn’t without some imagination alongside some tediousness. Maybe it felt so dragging because we’re moving so fast in our technological world, man. Maybe René Cardona’s 1959 film “SANTA CLAUS or SANTA CLAUS VS THE DEVIL” starring José Elías Moreno and José Luis Aguirre is a gift from Mexico to the world in the name of goodness and good cheer and we all need to take our time and soak it in and admire the patience required of peace on Earth and good will towards men. Santa Claus, from his space cloud town antagonizes a demon called Pitch. With the help of enslaved children as well as his live-in lovers, Merlyn and Mr. Blacksmith, Santa attempts get Christmas handled before the demon corrupts all the children. Pitch does corrupt three kids but you completely understand them and are on their side. Santa should truly be shot in the streets like a health insurance CEO for all the child enslavement he’s doing in this movie. It doesn’t matter that he has super computers with big luscious lips on them. Lips that can do lots of things. Here’s the movie, it’s easy to find: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qXI1x63SnoY
