	Media	Author	Review
		Roger Ebert rogerebert.com	"This is a superior horror film, a spot-on parody of movies about dead beings brought back to life (…) Rating: ★★★½ (out of 4)"
		Philip French The Guardian	"There have been some frightening cinematic Santas (...) But nothing can touch the one in this darkly humorous Finnish horror flick"
		Kim Newman Empire	"May be too strange for normal people, but weird kids will love it (…) Rating: ★★★★ (out of 5)"
		Jay Weissberg Variety	"The sheer fun of classic kids’ adventure movies is perfectly captured and slightly lampooned in the deliciously winning 'Rare Exports: A Christmas Tale'."
		The Hollywood Reporter	"[A] fiendishly entertaining Christmas yarn rooted in Northern European legend and lore"
