Outside of being populated with unlikable characters and unfunny humour, this is an obnoxious Christmas comedy that tries to teach the absurd moral that the best way to spend Christmas is to give in to people pressing you for their own personal gain, and doing absolutely nothing different.
Nora Krank: You forgot the white chocolate.
Luther Krank: They didn't have any.
Nora Krank: Did you talk to Rex?
Luther Krank: Who's Rex?
Nora Krank: The butcher.
Luther Krank: ...as odd as it sounds, I didn't think to ask the butcher where the chocolate was.
Trivia: When Frosty has just been smashed up and we see his head, the light in his eye goes out a bit like the terminators at the end of "Terminator 3" (2003).
