    Wow

    Oh my god it's like they got together an asylum's worth of mental patients and told them they were in a christmas movie! Not heartwarming or Christmassy at all just painful and disturbing, the old fellow playing Santa Claus seemed very confused and kept fumbling over his lines, and he looked in danger of injury in some of he scenes where he's handling the animals, although he did seem a lot more relaxed, I think it should have been an animal Christmas documentary because that would have at least been something mildly interesting, as it though I don't even think a baby would be entertained by this, the backgrounds look like a toy nativity set made to look big, and I hope you like cornball country jingles about santa because there's a lot of em! Not aggravatingly bad as such just kind of sad because it's so cheap and crappy, it's maddeningly inept and brings amateur production to new heights, their voices sounded echoey, giving it a desolate and hollow feel that was quite bereft of joy, I could see it being played to elderly that couldn't get away on repeat in a cruel nursing home again and again, as it is more a vision of purgatory hell than a bringer of christmas cheer, it will leave your head in confused stupor... Happy Christmas everyone! "Santa's hangin' fruitloops, for his forest family!!"

    • Trivia
      The filmmakers decided to film Arctic scenes infront of a white background and key out the white background, despite characters having white in their costumes. Therefore Santa Claus, the reindeer, and others are partially see through throughout the Arctic scenes.
    • Goofs
      Male reindeer shed their antlers in the fall, so all of Santa's reindeer have always been female rendering the entire premise of this "movie" pointless.
