Yule Love It
Bill Murray needs to phone the Ghostbusters after finding himself in the 1988 Charles Dickens update Scrooged. Did a lump on the head make the SNL star leave humanitarian Karen Allen (Raiders of the Lost Ark), and pursue a career as a callous network TV programmer? And can New York Doll David Johansen and flighty fairy Carol Kane beat some sense into the heartless executive before he ends up a rotting corpse like mentor John Forsythe (Dynasty)?
