Reception
Cleaver Patterson, writing for 'Starburst Magazine' wrote: "It's quite charming, with its story of a hapless father doing his best to bring up his unruly offspring single-handedly after his wife has died. The characters however appear stereotypically irksome an overprotective parent, feisty young daughter, know-it-all older brother, as well as bumbling baddies and buffoonish representatives of the law whilst the storyline offers little opportunity other than to involve everyone in endless misunderstanding-induced chases. The animation though by no means as bad as the recent Scottish abomination 'Sir Billi' is not much above the standard you'd expect from a made-for-television film, which A Monster Christmas was originally intended as."
