When I was a kid, my mom took me to see a movie called "The Christmas Tree". It was about a rich man whose son is dying from radiation poisoning. He goes through all sorts of stuff to make his son's last months happy, including stealing some wolves from the local zoo for pets.
On Christmas morning, he finds the kid under the tree and thinks he's trying to sneak a peek at his presents, but the kid has actually died waiting for Santa.
I was only 7 or 8 at the time and was horrified beyond belief. Worst Christmas movie ever!
