Oh dear...

It's an incredibly low bar but Santa's Christmas Elf (subtitle pointless) is slightly more competently made than, say, anything at Pirates World (not possessive, just the world of more than one pirate). The story starts off cute but quickly overstays its existence, often going on with one plot thread after another much longer than necessary (looking at you, model plane).

Within, every "oriental" home has a gong, Santa needs a visa to come to the United States from the North Pole, creeps on children at a local park and gets noticed by a cop. 1970 or not, Barry Mahon's legacy is right up there with David DeCoteau.
