Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaWhen Sophie is flipping through the TV channels, she stops at an Sinterklaas-themed episode of the series Flodder (1993), which was based on a movie of the same name. Dick Maas created the movie, its two sequels and the series that was derived from it. Johnny Flodder was played in the first two movies by Huub Stapel, the same actor who plays Niklas in 'Sint'. Johnny Flodder in the series footage, however, is the late Coen van Vrijberghe de Coningh.
- GoofsFrom the conversation the Superintendent has with the Mayor (at the end of the film, when the amount of victims is being discussed, namely 300) it can be deducted that the Mayor, as head of Police, as well as the Superintendent were both well aware of the dangers of a rampaging Niklas and his servants on 5 December during a full moon recurring every 42 years. The Mayor highlights that Amsterdam had to learn to live with this event for centuries now. He says that one day it will stop, but not in their lifetimes. They had 42 years to prepare and yet no extra police were on duty, as most were celebrating the 5th December festivities. Also Goert Hoekstra's report was never considered as a possible solution to the Niklas problem and halfway the film the Superintendent even starts reading Goerts report as if he is aware of the Niklas problem for the very first time.

Featured review
Ho-Ho-Hodear...
In an era of the successful Grindhouse revivals, The Asylum and the increasingly crazy J-spolitations, it would appear that schlock is on the rise...but "Saint" makes us remember that not all purposefully silly B- movies can be thoroughly entertaining. When over-the-top gore, crazy characters, hilarious dialog and preposterous plots are what make these movies work, "Saint" only nails the preposterous plot, concerning a murderous, zombified St. Nic going on a killing spree through Amsterdam. Typing this out, it sounds like it should be great fun but the fact is that "Saint" is not gory or funny enough to be a successful B-movie.
