The holidays are upon us, but instead of rushing out to see the latest heartwarming garbage Hollywood is trying to shove down your throat, come see a true Christmas classic: Foleyvision's SANTA vs. SATAN! This Saturday, Dec. 16, at 7 and 9:45 p.m. at the original downtown Alamo Drafthouse!
This gem of a film comes from Mexico, circa 1959, and is in full color with a lavish budget that was not wasted on its script, a hallucinatory trip through the holiday's seldom-seen inner workings. For instance, did you know..
-Santa lives in an electronic castle in space? -Santa uses robot reindeer to make his trip to Earth on Christmas Eve? -Santa is engaged in an age-old feud with the Prince of Darkness? -Demons get tummy aches from eating ice cream?
It turns out there's a lot we didn't know about Santa! But thanks to Foleyvision's LIVE music, LIVE sound effects, and LIVE voice dubbing, all performed right in the theater, learning about Christmas is as hilarious as it is educational!
This is one of the most beloved films in the Foleyvision repertoire, in no small part due to the amazing performances of Chad Nichols as Lupita, the cutest little poor girl ever filmed; the extraordinary Yasmine Kittles, who will be flying in from L.A. just for this show; and Peter Stopschinski's musical score that references a lot of music that doesn't belong in a Christmas movie!
Don't miss Foleyvision's SANTA vs. SATAN this Saturday, Dec. 16, at 7 and 9:45 p.m. at the original downtown Alamo Drafthouse! It's a Ho Ho Hell of a good time!
