SNL was hosted by Django Unchained star Christophe Waltz. The Austrian actor in opening monologue was joined by a fake Adolf Hitler, as he made fun of Germans and their sense of humor before breaking out into an Austrian song.
Poking fun the Tarantino movie, Waltz starred in a spoof video called Djesus Uncrossed, described as the "ultimate historical revenge fantasy" featuring Jesus Christ played by Waltz. He was portrayed as a killer who "may be wearing sandals but he can still kick a**."
"No more mister nice Jesus," Waltz said while pretending to be Christ.
