Quite true.  Very bad.  Now, for 15 big points...
Who is the actress who played the little girl in this bit
of Christmas trash?

And for 20 points, the Good Guys used pistols in this picture that
[in real life] shoot hunks of air.  It's kind of like a smoke-ring
shooter.  Pull the trigger and the air gets to the other side of the
room in about ten seconds.  I played with one of these back in college.
Anyone know where I can get me one of these?

A prepubescent PIA ZADORA, the paradigm of acting ability, charm
oon screen, and uh...good looks. I liked her better without the
hormones-unless I've got her confused with someone else. Maybe
it was *really* Cindy Lauper or Pam Dauber......

I never saw the movie, but I know that Pia Zadora (sp?) was either the
little girl, or one of the elfs or martians (If thats what your looking for).
