El Camino Christmas

TIM ALLEN: The undisputed king of Christmas movies (5 plus a Disney+ tvshow!) brings us one of his darkest and cynical looks at the holiday season with EL CAMINO CHRISTMAS. Eric (Luke Grimes) has come to El Camino, NV in search of the father he never knew. As soon as he rolls into town, however, a series of misunderstandings gets him in hot water with corrupt cop Hooker (Vincent D’Onofrio) and lands him a vicious beating and a night in a cell. After being sprung by good-hearted but dim Deputy Billy (Dax Shepard), Eric gets caught by Hooker skipping town, leading them to a hostage situation inside the local liquor mart. Trapped inside with them are single mom Kate (Michelle Mylett) with her young son Seth (Ashton Essex Bright), store owner Vincente (Emilio Rivera) and local town drunk Larry (Allen) who knows more than he’s letting on about Eric father. With Deputy Billy and Sherrif Fuller (Kurtwood Smith) outside attempting to keep the body count at a minimum, and a local TV anchor (Jessica Alba) looking to get the big scoop, things are spiralling out of control quickly. But will the spirit of the season be enough to bring everyone together for the holidays? Answer: NO, a couple people are killed! We watched David E. Talbert’s EL CAMINO CHRISTMAS, on this episode of NoelThing Movies.
