PhilaMOCA presents a holiday double-header featuring the HOME ALONE meets 80s slasher Christmas classic DIAL CODE SANTA CLAUS preceded by the American Genre Film Archives' one-hour found footage compilation AGFA'S SPECIAL CHRISTMAS SPECIAL! Doors open early at 6:30 for this one with the SPECIAL starting at 7:00 and the feature starting at 8:00.
AGFA’S SPECIAL CHRISTMAS SPECIAL is a brand new, feature-length mixtape culled from the tinsel-strewn video vaults of the American Genre Film Archive (AGFA). Beaming with deranged holiday cheer, this compilation wouldn’t feel out of place on a broadcast from the TV station in VIDEODROME.
Made a year before HOME ALONE, DIAL CODE SANTA CLAUS (aka 3615 CODE PERE NOEL aka DEADLY GAMES) has almost the same plot -- only way more stylized and bloodier.
Thomas is a typical 1980s kid: he loves Rambo, computers, role-playing games and his dog. While mom's away at the office on Xmas Eve, Thomas and his grandfather are left home alone -- perfect timing for a disgruntled, perverted, bloodthirsty Santa Claus to raid the home down the chimney. But Hell hath no fury like a mulleted ten-year-old with an arsenal of toys!
“Beautifully shot and crazed enough to keep you on your toes, this is a film that would have a bigger cult following if more viewers actually had the chance to see it.” -- Nathaniel Thompson, Mondo Digital
