    Storyline

    Edit

    Did you know

    Edit
    • Trivia
      Billy Bob Thornton has said that he was genuinely intoxicated during some of filming. In the escalator fall scene, he actually passed out after drinking 3 glasses of red wine for breakfast followed by vodkas, cranberry juice, and a few Bud Lights.
    • Goofs
      When Marcus turns off the surveillance cameras, he uses one button to turn off the TVs. If he just turned off the TVs, then the cameras would still be recording (but the images wouldn't be displayed in the security room).
    • Quotes

      Marcus: You're an emotional fucking cripple. Your soul is dog shit. Every single fucking thing about you is ugly.

    • Crazy credits
      There is a special thanks to Leonardo DiCaprio
    • Alternate versions
      The 99-minute 'Badder Santa' was assembled by the studio without any input from the director. The 88-minute 'Director's Cut' was assembled and approved by Zwigoff.

    Bad Santa (2003)
    An extreme end to christmas comedy genre. It's so vulgar it makes you puke. It's so dark and makes you laugh to things you never wants to laugh but you'll still laugh anyway.

    It's innovative cinematic style that embeds Tarantino, Ritchie and many darkly comic film makers makes this a unique gem of a film.

    Characters are amazing. Style and film making is exceptional. Still it's a cinematic experience. And a fresh one at that.

    Overall - 3.5/5
