Christmas Vacation
We got a full-blown, four-alarm holiday emergency here. The ultimate Christmas comedy, complete with countless catastrophes, 1989’s “National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation” proves once again no family can surmount explosive setbacks and bond quite like the Griswolds.
Clark, Ellen, Audrey and Rusty return along with Catherine and Eddie Johnson in part three of the vacation film series, and it wouldn’t be a Griswold Christmas without a pseudo kidnapping, SWAT team appearance, and the ignition of a Santa-and-sleigh replica—oh, and being the cause of a city-wide power outage. Get ready to have the HAP, HAP, HAPPIEST Christmas since Bing Crosby tap danced—we’ll let you finish everyone’s favorite line from the film. Pay homage.
