Nope, a fine film, but not exactly "Classic Christmas fare" (as I indicated about this flick in the first post)
I believe that Big RR's clue is a tongue-in-cheek reference to a sarcastic comment made by another poster about this movie in a different thread...(based on the movie's title, and a line from the movie's title song)
There's not actually anything "racist" about this film...
Looks like I won't have to use the give-away clue quote I was going to use from another Christmas movie:
We're all in this together. This is a full-blown, four-alarm holiday emergency here. We're gonna press on and we're gonna have the hap-hap-happiest Christmas since Bing Crosby tap danced with Danny-fucking-Kaye.
No, it has nothing to do with vampire hunting presidents.
The worst thing that ever happened to me was on Christmas. Oh, God. It was so horrible. It was Christmas Eve. I was 9 years old. Me and Mom were decorating the tree, waiting for Dad to come home from work. A couple hours went by. Dad wasn't home. So Mom called the office. No answer. Christmas Day came and went, and still nothing. So the police began a search. Four or five days went by. Neither one of us could eat or sleep. Everything was falling apart. It was snowing outside. The house was freezing, so I went to try to light up the fire. That's when I noticed the smell. The firemen came and broke through the chimney top. And me and Mom were expecting them to pull out a dead cat or a bird. And instead they pulled out my father. He was dressed in a Santa Claus suit. He'd been climbing down the chimney... his arms loaded with presents. He was gonna surprise us. He slipped and broke his neck. He died instantly. And that's how I found out there was no Santa Claus.
Death is Nature's way of telling you to slow down.
I know it now but I’m disqualified. Interesting side note the sequel spent a lot of time mocking the man who would update become our president. There also has been talk of a new sequel.
Two thoughts I had when recently viewing the movie:
The effects hold up pretty well
This movie was considered to be for children l?!
Okay... There's all kinds of things wrong with what you just said.
I never saw the movie itself, but I saw a clip from it -- this very scene, in fact -- in an online article about the "XX Strangest Christmas Movies of All Time".
And yes, "Die Hard" and "Home Alone" were also among the list. -"BB"-
Yes, I suppose I could agree with you ... but then we'd both be wrong, wouldn't we?
