SINT

Guess what, I just read that the Dutch commission for commercials (Reclame Code Commissie) is going to research (in Dutch) complaints about the following ad for a horror movie:


Some background for those of you readers that don't know anything about Sinterklaas: it's a yearly event for children, roughly analogous to Santa (there are some minor differences; for example, there is lots of tasty traditional food such as pepernoten, various forms of chocolate and other candy, as well as other speculaas products). He appears on a white horse, with a large staff.

All this sillyness about a damn horror movie reminds me of that good ol' Futurama episode: A Tale of Two Santas. I'm not much of a movie guy, but perhaps this movie will be interesting :-). Meanwhile, go watch the trailer (again, in Dutch) here (or on the page of the news article). It's really hilarious.
