Day 22 - Scrooged (1988)

Scrooged, starring Doctor Peter Venkman, might be the best retelling of the classic Dickens tale.

The makers of this film took everything great about the story, tossed it into the randomizer, and what popped out was genius.

From Buster Poindexter as a dirty, foul-tempered Ghost of Christmas Past, to Carol Kane as a ball-busting (literally) Ghost of Christmas Present, and finally a truly terrifying Ghost of Christmas Future, this movie has it all.

We also have to remember the black female Bob Cratchet and her mute Tiny Tim, and Marion Ravenwood as Venkman’s lost love.

I can’t express just how much I love this movie.

If you haven’t seen it, or you don’t like it, you are a naughty child, and you deserve naught but coal for Christmas!
