Bad Tidings Starring Lee Mack
Discussion
Watched this yesterday.
If you were considering watching it, save yourself the 80 or so minutes it lasts, and don't bother.
I like both Lee Mack and Chris McCausland, but this low budget Home Alone parody didn't do either of them any favours. None of the other actors stood out particularly either, including the "baddies" who didn't seem very bad. What little action there was, seemed to be shot in very low light/the dark so you could hardly see what was going on.
Reviews on IMDB average at 5.7/10, but significant numbers rate it as a 9 or 10, and perhaps even more rate it as a 1 or 2.
I'd give it a 4 at best, but clearly there are people out there that do like it.

Watched it yesterday. Went in with very low expectations, especially as the advert didn't look particularly great. It wasn't as bad as I was expecting but was pretty poor.
Aside from the usual dimes during the summer whilst pretending it's Christmas, Lee Mack's character claimed to have lived there for many years dispite all the new build houses looking about 18months old at best.
