It is really well done, and a nice addition to Santa Claus lore. The scene where Scrooge has Santa held captive is Edward Albee-level brilliant. It's extremely violent but in a comic-book/Grand Guignol way. There are also references to other Christmas films, like Home Alone, as well as Christmas Vacation due to the presence of Beverly D'Angelo.
