His post read: "Help me storm the gates of Rotten Tomatoes. All of you who love 'Saving Christmas'--go rate it at Rotten Tomatoes right now and send the message to all the critics that WE decide what movies we want our families to see. If 2,000 of you (out of almost 2 million on this page) take a minute to rate 'Saving Christmas', it will give the film a huge boost and more will see it as a result! Thank you for all your help and support in putting the joy of Christ back in Christmas!". The following day, Cameron took to Facebook again to claim that the film's rating had rose to 94% thanks to his plea to fans and supporters. However, the call to manipulate votes angered some film fans who took to Rotten Tomatoes to leave negative reviews (Saving Christmas's current rating is 0%). Cameron later blamed the negative reaction on "haters, pagans and atheists" and also claimed there was "an atheist conspiracy" to ruin the film that was allegedly hatched on Reddit.
