I'm sure Alex did this at one point

This movie is all kinds of fucked up! A nice addition to The Besties!

Should I Watch Bad Santa on Netflix before I watch this Bestie?

@Arrested_Developer: There are definitely plot spoilers in this.

Love this movie, one of the great dark comedies. Also, Terry Zwigoff's (Ghost World) last great directing effort.

I love this movie so much. Definitely one of my favorite Christmas movies.

I saw this movie with my super conservative grandparents and it was the most awkward night of my life. My Mom and I were laughing our asses off though.

mbkishon Dec. 21, 2011 at 7:18 p.m.

My dad and I hold this as the best Christmas movie ever made. Only thing better is Badder Santa.

Excellent episode

Fucking adore this movie, and one of the few roles were Tony Cox makes use of his ''angry black dwarf'' archetype to great effect, thanks to the solid antagonist chemistry with Billy Bob.

I remember feeling so goddamn bad for The Kid as well... I think I even teared up a lil when I first watched this, as Billy Bob is rushing to the door with the toy.

Fuck it. Besties.

Great film. Also Lauren Graham is smoking in this movie.

crithonon Dec. 21, 2011 at 11:11 p.m.

well, to be honest, this is the most I've seen of Bad Santa. And as honest as Rorey's support for the film is, I still have no desire to see it. It's not my cup of tea and really prefer to see something with better production value

spilledmilkfactoryon Dec. 21, 2011 at 11:19 p.m.

I never really found this movie entertaining

A worthy addition, I must say.

I hated this film, it doesn't deserve to be a bestie at all. The only funny part of this film is Bernie Mac and the little guy arguing and calling each other names ... and when he keeps demanding 'half' and does stupid accents.

Other than that, poor film.

dam, i was tottaly sold on this n then it got spoiled.

Eyzon Dec. 22, 2011 at 2:55 a.m.

I still haven't to this day seen this movie. But I actually always wanted to...dunno why...itjust totally slips off my mind for the rest of year :/
