Default Any Obscure Action Movies Set at Christmas?

By Obscure I don't mean the likes of Cobra or Rocky IV.

I was thinking is there any Direct to Video action movies set at Christmas like Pepin/Merhis Riot, or any 60s/70s Italian Polizia or Giallos set at Christmas like Argento's Deep Red?

After Black Christmas in the 70s being so popular you would think someone in Italy may have tried to copy its setting.

I just fancy watching a christmas based action movie and don't really want to watch Lethal Weapon or Die Hard again at the moment.

You could try ‘Game Over’ aka Dial Code Santa Claus.

That's also very good. Quite violent in places. It's more set around New Years Eve than actual Christmas

Yeah, it's about a gathering for new year at a country house.

I'll be watching Bloody New Year and New Year's Evil then too. Neither of which i've seen before.
