Whether you get knee deep in the Christmas spirit, or have a bit of Scrooge, or the Grinch, or Ed's x-mas sweater of Oscar the Grouch saying "Bah Humbug!" in you, there is something seasonally splendid to satiate your ear holes in Reel Poppycock's episode on the 2003 film "Bad Santa."
Directed by Terry Zwigoff, and starring Billy Bob Thornton, Tony Cox, Lauren Graham, John Ritter, and Bernie Mac, this ain't your mammy and pappy's Christmas flick.
KC, as the most technically inclined member of the Poppycock crew, provides plenty of insight into the intricacies of the heist related hijinks of the movie. While Ed ponders the age old question of: "is Billy Bob actually sexy?"
Plenty of Poppycocks get plopped upon this picture, but does Trevor too terribly try to defend this tawdry and timely Christmas classic?
You'll just have to listen to find out, enjoy!
