This should be called Badass Santa The Movie!


  • After Santa gets caught by one of the thieves during the initial break in, the thief tries to take him hostage, assuming him to be an actor hired for the party. He proceeds to threaten him at gunpoint while ignoring his attempts to de-escalate the situation. Santa warns him that he should really reconsider his actions, only for the thief to dismiss him and start beating him with the butt of his gun. Santa finally gets fed up and grabs the gun mid-strike, before getting into a knock-down drag out brawl with the thief, ending with him stabbing him with an ice pick and tossing him out the window onto a rather large icicle.
  • The scene where Scrooge demands to know Santa's real name, leading Santa to list off a lot of the names across different time periods and cultures he's collected over the centuries. It's almost like a Badass Boast version of a similar scene from The Santa Clause.
  • Santa discovers a sledgehammer while hiding from the kill squad. Reminding him of Skullcrusher, the Warhammer he once wielded, Santa then proceeds to massacre his way through the squad.
  • Trudy devises several booby traps inspired by Home Alone, and even when the traps were not hidden properly, Trudy thought to include an additional trap within that trap best demonstrated by Gingerbread avoiding the nail-laced rug only to fall on a broken step and get his chin pierced on an upturned nail.
  • A villainous example is how much punishment Candy Cane is able to shrug off before Santa gets to her.
  • Krampus is about to execute Alva, Bert, and Linda on Scrooge's orders. The three immediately begin bickering over who should be shot first, hurling petty insults at each other and generally confusing Krampus. Alva then tosses the glass of alcohol she had poured earlier when he first entered into the fireplace behind him, the sudden burst of flame causing him to recoil and stumble while the trio grab fire pokers (or an ash shovel in Bert's case) and lay into him, capped off with Alva stabbing him through the neck.
  • Santa takes advantage of Scrooge finally believing in him to grab onto him and activate his chimney powers, pulling Scrooge with him and violently dismembering him.
    Scrooge: The last Christmas…
    Santa Claus: (blocks Scrooge's attack and pulls him close) Not if you still believe.
  • After Scrooge's demise, Thorp shows up and shoots Santa several times. When he's about to finish him off, Gertrude grabs Scrooge's gun and shoots him in the head.
    Thorp: I have no idea what the fuck is going on here, but it ends now!
    Gertrude: You're damn right it does… (Bang!)
  • Crossing over with heartwarming but the deleted post-credit scene where the drunk from the beginning, the one with the little girl in her crib, wakes up to find Santa waiting for him, bloodied and holding Skullcrusher. Santa tells him he has ONE chance to give his little girl the life she deserves... because he will be back next Christmas.
