We were tortured with being forced to watch this film each and every December in elementary school, grades 1 thru 6. The movie does have a strong, valuable message that is important for children to learn, but overall the movie comes across as very depressing. All this movie did for me was make me want to go home to my family where I felt safe. I will never forget this film because of how sad and depressing it was, and how it scared the crap out of me and my classmates.

I would not force viewing this upon any child, because it comes across in such a dark and depressing manner that no child will learn the lessons that are taught in it. If you want to scare your children to death each holiday season, then this is the film for you.
