"Bad Santa 2" the crude Santa is back!  After almost 13 years, the filmmakers and the director Mark Waters boldly created a sequel to the most hated Santa of all times. "Bad Santa 2" despite oddity, braves the cinema just in time before Christmas.

"Bad Santa 2" may be a brow-riser to the audience due to its' rude humor and adult comedy, way far from the 'Santa' known to everyone.  There were offensive scenes, the booze, cursing and oozing with not-so-good adult behavior.  But despite trashy scenes, the producers promise a laugh out hard and a grand time watching the whole time. 

The flow picks up thirteen years later.  Bob Thornton as Willie, is still the old drunk man.  He lives a sloppy life, squeezes himself in a fleabag hotel.  However, despite Willie's 'malfunction', Thurman Merman, remain a fan.  Thurman, now all grown up, yet naive and still have the traces of not so smart boy; his love for sandwiches drove him to work in a local sandwich shop.  This boy, now lad, gives a rainbow of hope to the Protagonist slash, Antagonist, Willie.

The film traces Willie's reason for such a character.  Then comes Kathy Bates, Willie's mother, Sunny.  Sunny, did not live up to her name.  Her attitude towards her son make's Willy's heart shatter.  Bates plays the horrible and unforgiving mother.  If her words could kill, nobody is alive; even her shrilling voice can reach the brain cells of anyone who could hear her.

"Bad Santa 2" presents the good and bad side of Willie's character.  He was near suicide after hitting rock bottom when a package from his ex-boyfriend changed the mood.  Marcus, (Tony Cox) made a special once of a lifetime deal, $2 Million dollars, if, he forgets the past and come to him in Chicago.

Catch Willie, as Bad Santa in Theaters, November 23.
