(1981) Lucy McGrath, Paul Farrell, Lee Hatherly, Paul Jenden. On Christmas Eve, a little girl awakens thinking she hears Santa Claus (Father Christmas) entering the house. What she finds is a weird monster who pleads for her to help defeat an evil witch who has stolen the voices of all his monster friends because they sang Christmas songs better than the witch. She ends up in a strange world filled with creatures of all kinds, and soon finds herself in the evil witch’s cave. Keep in mind, this is not a horror film; it’s a very good children’s fantasy, which kids will love to see at Christmas. Delightful in its own way. This would be rated G for sure. 50 min. Nice color, 16mm.
