About Bad Santa

In this dark comedy, the crotchety Willie T. Stokes (Billy Bob Thornton) and his partner (Tony Cox) reunite once a year for a holiday con. Posing as a mall Santa and his elf, they rip off shopping outlets on Christmas Eve.

This year, however, Willie is falling apart. He's depressed and alcoholic, and his erratic behavior draws the suspicion of mall security (Bernie Mac). But when befriending a small boy brings out his kinder side, Willie begins to wonder if there is still some hope for him.

Willie (Billy Bob Thornton) teams up once again with his angry little sidekick, Marcus, to knock off a Chicago charity on Christmas Eve.

If you search for movies on Amazon, you will sometimes see a Director's Cut or Unrated Cut for these films.

“An unrated film is simply that — a version of the movie that has not been submitted for a rating,” said Kate Bedingfield, chief spokeswoman for the Motion Picture Association of America.

A director's cut is an edited version of a film that is supposed to represent the director's own approved edit in contrast to the theatrical release.
