The film opens with an unknown man drawing and organizing diagrams to the song Silent Night. He picks up his parka coat and unlike most folk who wear parka coats, rather than hanging about train stations and primary schools he decides to trap some bankers in said ATM.
A fun romp of a film with a strange ending this is far above the Prom Night slasher flicks that are 2 a penny these days.

While attending a Christmas party, David (Brian Geraghty) offers to drive his co-worker, Emily (Alice Eve), home. Reluctantly, he allows his friend Corey (Josh Peck) to accompany them. On the car ride, Corey forces David to pull up at a local ATM, wanting to get money for pizza. Corey and David enter the ATM to withdraw money, and shortly after, Emily joins them. When the three are about to leave, they turn to see a hooded figure lurking outside. While Corey suggests they return to the car, Emily and David are reluctant, believing the figure to be a robber. Although they are scared, they realize, though later proven wrong by David, that the figure cannot get in without an ATM card. The hooded figure murders a local man walking his dog, prompting the three to call the police, only to realize they had left their cellphones in the car. While the three are panicking inside, the hooded figure cuts off the heater in the ATM booth, effectively making it colder. David decides to reason with the hooded figure, and attempts to give him 500 dollars, valuable earrings, and a watch in return for their safety. While giving the money to the hooded figure, he runs back to the car, attempting to grab Emily's phone to alert the police. He is chased to the car, gets the phone and realizes the wires have been cut preventing the car from being driven. The hooded figure then attacks him by smashing out the passenger's side window. He escapes the car and is chased back to the ATM booth, unharmed, but drops the cellphone along the way. Emily uses her lipstick to write "HELP" on the ATM booth's window. The hooded man takes the phone, the valuables and the wallet from the dead man.
