Hallmark Review: 'The Santa Stakeout'
In a Denver police station resides two detectives with polar opposite personalities. Rookie Tanya Morris (Tamera Mowry-Housley) loves Christmas and is a stickler for organization. Veteran detective Ryan Anderson (Paul Campbell) is indifferent to the holiday and couldn't care less about tidiness. Despite their differences, a surprise case throws them together. A string of art galleries have been burglarized and the detectives quickly surmise their prime suspect to be Francis Miller (Joe Pantoliano). He's an ex-felon with a history of theft who was working as a Santa at the parties preceding each robbery. But with no evidence for a search warrant, Ryan suggests that a stakeout be set up against Miller.

Short Film Reviews: From 1 Minute to 10 Minutes
The Tattooist: A torturous tattoo parlor is the first destination on this 10-stop review train. The Tattooist barely reaches the 1-minute mark, so it doesn't waste time getting to the sinister secret that the tattooist (played by Yanhu Wong) is hiding behind his neon sign and flower wallpaper. Even if you're not a horror fanatic, you'll probably guess what it is before you even start the movie. What The Tattooist lacks in originality, it makes up for with its style. For a short film helmed by a first-time director and made on an estimated $10,000, The Tattooist packs quite the visual punch.
