Editing Guidelines Please remember these guidelines when editing a film article: If a non-film article already exists with the name of the film that you are trying to create an article for, disambiguate and use (film) in the title: Film Title (film) For more information see: Wikipedia:Naming conventions (films) When writing an article about a particular film, the general format should be a concise lead section, followed by a plot summary of no more than 900 words, production details, a cast list, a reception section, and references. Create an Infobox that tells all pertinent information about the film.

I have edited several additions linking this article to the category "surrealist film". This is simply NOT a surrealist film. It is so bad and so unintentionally weird that elements of it informally may be called surreal, but it is NOT a surrealist film. Although I did in fact mention "several surreal dream sequences" in the article it must be noted that, in formal usage, "weird" does not equal "surreal." David Lynch is a surrealist filmmaker; Ed Wood was not. If Santa Claus is surrealist cinema, then so is everything that ever ran on MST3K. Sorry to be a noodge, but....
