It's possible - cultures often influenced each other. It seems there's almost no way to compare characteristics, since the Biblical account is of a foreign god and lacks details. I wasn't able to find a non-biblical mention of him, so it's likely his worshippers called him by a different name in their own writings, if those writings survived at all.

Christmas not being Jesus' birthday checks out. (Winter solstice - many pagan holidays - easier to get the converts to celebrate a new holiday in place of the old one)
The date of Easter is still tied to Passover as in the Bible, so it's likely more or less accurate. But the name was definitely taken from Ishtar's spring celebration around the same time (Spring equinox - again, many pagan holidays). An orgy wouldn't be surprising for a fertility goddess.
I can't find anything about child sacrifice to Horus, though. Either/any one of them. Unless sauce is provided, I assume the speaker threw that in for the shock value. (which hurts the message)

Looks like someone wearing a mask and accidentally shifted the nose to the side. That might cause the other distortions. Weird.
