From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.
Bad Santa is a movie about two con men who go on a road trip to malls dressed as Santa and his elf. Rather than spreading good cheer, the duo's motive is to rob each establishment, a strategy that becomes complicated when they encounter an 8-year-old who teaches them the true meaning of Christmas.
The movie attracted bad publicity before its release from critics who likened the movie to an "evil twin" of Miracle on 34th Street and chided Disney for allowing such a beloved figure as Santa Claus to be trashed in by its Miramax subsidiary. [1]
