i went to see this movie back in november of 1984 when it was first released. it was fun watching the mothers of the christian groups and P.T.A., across the street from the movie theater, going apeshit over this movie! it was fun, listening to the christian fundie ministers raving about, going into theaters, to slash up seats and the movie screens, to save the childern! this has to be one of the ten best christmas movies ever made; just due, to the crazy shit way the parents went apeshit over! have any of you all ever seen this christmas classic?
Oh yea. I saw it in the theater too. I couldn't resist the erge after seeing the TV trailers for it! It was and always will be a movie that crossed the line at the right time.
