Storyline
Norma and Arthur Lewis, a suburban couple with a young child, receive a simple wooden box as a gift, which bears fatal and irrevocable consequences. A mysterious stranger delivers the message that the box promises to bestow upon its owner $1 million with the press of a button. However, pressing this button will simultaneously cause the death of another human being somewhere in the world, someone they don't know. With just 24 hours to have the box in their possession, Norma and Arthur find themselves in the cross-hairs of a startling moral dilemma and must face the true nature of their humanity. Written by Warner Bros. Pictures

Trivia
Although Stuntman Paul Marini is credited for the role of Santa, he actually was the stunt double for Sal Lizard, who was featured as Santa. When you see the views of Santa from the back, it's Marini but from the front, it's Lizard. See more »Goofs
Anachronisms: When footage is shown of the Langley Research Center we can see a fuselage of an A-320, an aircraft not built until 1989. See more »Soundtracks
