Scrooged - Official® Trailer [HD]

Release Date: November 23, 1988

High-spirited high jinks on Christmas Eve put Frank Cross (Bill Murray) in a ghostly time warp in this hilarious take-off of Charles Dickens' "A Christmas Carol." Cross, who has made the meteoric rise from the depths of the mailroom to TV network president, is mean, nasty, uncaring, unforgiving and has a sadistic sense of humor - perfect qualities for a modern-day Scrooge.
Before the night is over, he'll be visited by a maniacal New York cab driver from the past, a present-day fairy who's into pratfalls and, finally, a ghoulish, seven-foot-headless messenger from the future.

1:01 And suddenly you're trying to watch the trailer while envisions the opening car chase from The Goonies.

The 3 spirits of Christmas will change Bill Murray’s ways.

This one’s a funniest and strange Christmas movie.

[anonymousposter]

[gailtomlinson]

This film is fantastic I do wish they'd put it on free so people that can't afford to pay can watch it too never mind I'll watch the trailers instead what a shame

[Naminskia]

That’s the theme music from The Goonies (1985).

[soldatheero]

i have very vague memories of this movie as it was one of the first i had ever seen when i was a little kid and it always gave me weird vibes and made me think wtf?

[michelerich]

ohhh. like "Screwed". just got it

[mesicek]

0:24 is that the guy from Police Academy 2?

I get the message of a christmas carol is simply to be nice to people, but sadly it can have a reverse meaning, why work hard if your evil for doing it, why work at all as if you work to make money to survive you are evil and will get visited by ghosts, notably those that are not either live on the street or are borderline, i never understand why they pick the specific person to haunt though as there are alot of people equal to scrooge character.

The acting in this film is atrocious. Bill Murray is extremely disappointing unfortunately. There is a reason this is not in the top picks for Christmas films. Do not waste your time or money renting this film!
