BAD SANTA (2003)
TERRY ZWIGOFF
Plot
Willie T Stokes just isn't a nice man, but then he doesn't really need to be because he's an embittered, amoral safe cracker masquerading as a department store Santa, so lovability would probably be a handicap. When Willy and his midget partner settle in for another big festive score, they find themselves having to deal with a keen eyed store detective and a cute kid who thinks he's the real deal, not a problem you would think, but is Willie in danger of finding himself a conscience?. Crude, lewd and misanthropic, Bad Santa is a whiff of fetid but refreshing air as the sickly sweet, wallet stripping Christmas season approaches.
