Overview

Sam the snowman tells us the story of a young red-nosed reindeer who, after being ousted from the reindeer games because of his glowing nose, teams up with Hermey, an elf who wants to be a dentist, and Yukon Cornelius, the prospector. They run into the Abominable Snowman and find a whole island of misfit toys. Rudolph vows to see if he can get Santa to help the toys, and he goes back to the North Pole on Christmas Eve.

Viewing Notes

More nostalgia than anything but still nice stop motion work. This being the earliest stopmo R/B film it’s interesting to see several of them in a short period as the production got better.

This story pisses me off the most due to prevalent sexist attitudes and how those that are different are ostracized. Even Santa is a dick.
