Summary

A lonely toy factory worker, traumatized since childhood by witnessing his mother's intimate encounter with a man dressed as Santa Claus, becomes obsessed with Christmas and the idea of judging who is naughty or nice. As the holiday approaches, his fragile psyche unravels and he dons a Santa suit himself, setting out to reward the good and punish the wicked in his New Jersey neighborhood.
