What a wasted opportunity. The town in "Christmas Town" looked like a messy studio back lot with holiday decorations probably taped up and temporary. It was apparently filmed in California in the summer, with zero attempt to achieve any sort of Yuletide atmosphere other than cutsie names like "Egg Nog Café" and all the cult members/townspeople wearing cheap Santa hats. The story idea could have gone somewhere, but bad directing, poor writing, and slapdash set design combined with lazy acting and weird characters (I swear to God, watching Roxie with her hot cocoa was pure creepy) had me fast forwarding about every 2 minutes. I could go on, but this turkey of a film doesn't deserve the effort it would take to point out all of its problems. The production team didn't try very hard, so why should I?
Avoid this movie like warm egg nog.
