VIOLENCE/GORE 3 - A man freezes a husband and wife while their young daughter watches and pleads for him to stop.
 A snow globe glows and whirrs and two men are swept through the air, they crash onto the ground (this happens in a couple of scenes), one hits the other with a snow shovel, and they struggle and wrestle to reach a coat.
 A man slips and falls off a roof in a few scenes (the suit he is wearing is shown flat on the ground and the man disappears).
 A man swings on a rope and kicks another man knocking him down, the two men yell at each other, one pokes the other with a plastic candy cane, and one climbs on the roof of a stage display house and crashes through the roof.
 A girl kicks a man in the shin for making his wife cry. A man holds another man on the ground while yelling at him. A man becomes angry with a girl and yells at her.

 A man blows ice into gears and other mechanical and electronic equipment causing them to break down. A coffee machine breaks down and sprays coffee beans all around. Toy machines spurt out stuffed teddy bears.
 The ice that covers three people breaks away and they are all OK. Two men disappear in a flash of sparkling light.
 A man blows glittering dust into a man and a woman's face, and they fall back onto a sofa and fall sound asleep.
