Was this thing actually meant to be a comedy?

No one can take it seriously, so was it meant to be so bad?

I'm a Cinemajunkie !

I wish I knew more.

I wish some one would find the Director and interview him.

I would love to see a good documentary on the film.

Having just watched the movie, I really don't think it was meant to be a comedy. At all. Just a cheap way to make some money.

Sadly, NO. It was released as a real movie at Christmas time for kids. A friend of mine that ran a theatre back then booked it for a matinee. Kids actually walked out on this movie.

I'm guessing that your friend booked the film sight-unseen. I don't think there is a theater in the world that would show this movie after seeing the first five minutes, much less any real knowledge about it. This movie is worse than Manos; Manos was awful, but at least Manos is a complete feature. This thing wasn't really even about Santa Claus; it was about a teenage girl with weird eyebrows.

No. No way.
