Badder Santa (Unrated Widescreen Edition)

Editorial Review:
Product Description
Hollywood favorites Billy Bob Thornton (THE ALAMO), Bernie Mac (MR. 3000), and John Ritter (TV s 8 SIMPLE RULES FOR DATING MY TEENAGE DAUGHTER) kick it up a notch in this unrated version of the outrageous comedy hit BAD SANTA. You'd better watch out -- Santa Claus Willie T. Stokes (Thornton) is coming to town and he doesn't care if you've been naughty or nice. Willie's favorite holiday tradition is to fill his sacks with loot lifted from shopping malls across the country. But this year his plot gets derailed by a wise-cracking store detective (Mac), a sexy bartender (Lauren Graham -- TV's GILMORE GIRLS), and a kid who's convinced Willie is the real Santa Claus! You're sure to believe in BADDER SANTA: THE UNRATED VERSION -- once you experience this longer, funnier, and more explicit motion picture!

Bonus Features
1. "Hilariously nasty!" -- People Magazine; "Funny as hell!" -- Washington Post
2. Deleted And Alternate Scenes
3. Behind-The-Scenes Special
4. Outtakes
5. "Badder Santa" Gag Reel

Instantly qualifying as a perennial cult favorite, Bad Santa is as nasty as it wants to be, and there's something to be said for comedy without compromise. The Coen brothers conceived the basic idea and served as executive producers, but it's director Terry Zwigoff (Crumb, Ghost World) who brings his unique affinity for losers and outcasts to the twisted tale of Willie T. Stokes (Billy Bob Thornton), a hard-drinking, chain-smoking, foul-mouthed sexaholic safe-cracker who targets a different department store every holiday season, playing Santa while he cases the joint with his dwarf elf-partner Marcus (Tony Cox). With comedic support from Bernie Mac, Lauren Graham, Cloris Leachman, and John Ritter in his final film, Thornton milks the lowbrow laughs with a slovenly lack of sentiment, warming Bad Santa's pickled heart just enough to please a chubby misfit (Brett Kelly, hilariously deadpan) who may or may not be mentally challenged. As dry as an arid martini and blacker than morning-after coffee, Bad Santa is an instant cure for yuletide schmaltz, and if you think this appropriately R-rated comedy is suitable for kids, your parenting skills are no better than Willie's. --Jeff Shannon

Bad Santa. Great Movie........2007-04-02

Lets face it, only Billy Bob Thornton could pull off a role such as this one. And what's better than the scene with the Gilmore girl screaming F me Santa! F me Santa!
YES! I Love it!

And I love this movie. If you like this movie I strongly suggest you watch School for Scoundrels.

May the force be with me.

I think I sharted in my pants.......2007-02-15

Dark, sick, Vulger, Twisted! but in a strange way it touched my heart... billy bob could only play this part this good.
a Xmas must.

Funny.......2007-01-29

I can watch Bad Santa a hundred times, well I have and enjoyed it every time. If I need a laugh Bad Santa is what I put on.
Christmas can get real busy and hectic, but this movie reminds you to laugh.

Bad to the Funny Bone.......2007-01-23

Watch this at any time and prepare to feel ill due to laughing so hard. Thornton kills Christmas but refreshes the human spirit.

Disappointing.......2007-01-12

I ordered this version after reading reviews of it and Badder Santa, thinking maybe I was getting something more than the movie I'd already seen and loved. I didn't care for this version. It is lacking a couple of scenes that I think help to tie the story together, and in apparently seeking a more "noir" theme includes scenes that are probably more than I needed to know...like the van backing over the security guy. They killed him, okay, I get it. I also didn't like the ending as much (although I won't give it away for those of you just dying to see it). I will donate this to the Friends of the Library sale and buy myself a copy of the "vanilla" version.
