If you want to get in the Holiday spirit....avoid this movie at all costs! Thought this was a "Santa" movie I saw as a child. I had really fond memories of a movie my Mom took me to see....have yet to discover which film it was. THIS was NOT it! No one could possibly have fond memories of this one. Boooooo-rrrrrinnnng!!!!
