Synopsis

Dennis is a down-on-his-luck mall Santa who’s one fuck-up away from standing in the unemployment line. After getting caught having a freaky four-way with his coworker elves— which includes his on-and-off girlfriend, Jen— his boss has had enough and finally fires him. With his ex-wife, Kelly, looking for alimony and his horny MILF landlady, Rochelle, hounding him for the rent, Dennis is running out of options. In the spirit of the holidays, Kelly throws Dennis a bone by hiring him to play Santa at her and her new husband’s Christmas party. But when a trio of ragtag thieves burglarize the house and tie up his ex, Dennis will have to prove he’s more than just a lazy prick with a big dick if he wants to save Christmas!
