Fuelled by sex, booze, drugs and hip hop, Bart, Ladj and Thai get kicked out of a Paris nightclub on Christmas Eve. The three friends meet up with two young ladies, Eve and Yasmine, who invite them to Eve's parents' countryside home. Later, a drunken dinner discussion of sex and evil leads to a recounting of a bawdy tale of a peasant possessed by Sheitan, Persian for Satan. (texto oficial de la distribuidora)

No es precisamente una película navideña convencional para un público selecto. El esquema de terror clásico a lo de Texas Chain Saw, pero concebido como una comedia extravagante de bajo presupuesto. La alteración y el disgusto están presentes en menor medida que en películas de terror similares, la película no puede tomarse demasiado en serio. Pero el retraso de los palurdos atrae, y Vincent Cassel disfruta interpretando al simpático personaje excéntrico y lo hace muy bien.

I quite like this kind of films (and I mostly don’t care that they aren’t original), but this one just didn’t work. The yokels are great, but there’s something wrong when the most likeable character in a film is a psychopathic madman. Really, it’s hard to imagine a worse choice for the heroes, and before Vincent Cassel showed up, I was seriously considering turning the film off. On top of that, it’s quite boring for most of the time and the final carnage is not even that interesting. Besides the characters, what drove me mad was the music score, it’s the kind of stuff that makes me run away when I hear it under normal circumstances. Definitely a disappointment and one of the worst redneck movies I’ve ever seen.
