Scrooge was right about Christmas: in fact, it's worse than a humbug. It's a horror movie. And Santa is really serious about who's naughty and nice--so be good kids or else. This movie ought to be run on a 24 hour Christmas Day rotation with A Christmas Story, since it too deals with a small boy who gets a gun.
Santa Claus has been buried deep in the Lapland permafrost for a very long time and for a very good reason. An obnoxious American capitalist digs him up for no evident reason and in the end pays the price (I guess he was naughty). Fortunately, this film's version of Ralphie is a better shot and also knows what to do with dynamite. Also, Santa's elves are marketable, so I guess after all what really matters about Christmas is that it's a serious money maker.
I never realized until now how funny the Finns were.
