“It’s the week before Christmas when young and adventurous Pietari uncovers the truth about Santa Claus. Legend has it that the jolly old man is more of a foe than a friend. A group of American scientists is also looking to uncover some facts in Pietari’s quiet rural town in northern Finland. It turns out that the most well-kept Christmas secret ever lies 500 meters below ground. This dark secret and Pietari unleash an unforeseen chain of events, after which Christmas will never, ever be the same again.

The long-awaited follow-up (actually a prequel) to the two award-winning online hit shorts [“Rare Exports Inc.” (2003) and “Rare Exports Inc. – Safety Instructions” (2005)], which have more than 1 million downloads on YouTube by up-and-coming talent commercial and music video director, Jalmari Helander, telling the story of how Santa Clauses are hunted down and domesticated to prepare them for export all around the world!”

The Roadkill Carpet is a product by Oooms Design:

“Do you know the feeling that you do not want to take a look at something, but you still do? The Roadkill carpet is a continues struggle between attraction and repulsion. It’s a warm, soft, cuddly carpet that attracts you to take a nap on it. But at the same time its a repulsive image of a car-flattened, bloody fox.”

Editing the Dead is an interactive re-cut of the original 1968 classic Night of the Living Dead that lets you make all the crucial decisions to move the story along. On Youtube, of course:

“The zombie apocalypse will bring a shortage of food. In order to survive people will have to eat things they are unfamiliar with. Fun fact: Pandas are delicious, but dolphins are more filling.”
