THE BEST CHRISTMAS MOVIES EVER – 3 DAY CHRISTMAS (2012)

 

Martin Taylor (George Newbern) realises he has totally lost touch with his family, he has no clue who his teenage daughter, Lu, (Taylor Spreitler) is or who her friends are, he has no idea why his son, Adam (Aidan Potter) only communicates with him via an electronic sign outside his bedroom door, or why his youngest child Jessie (Francesca Capaldi) only watches faith TV.

His whacky survivalist brother Sam, (Kevin Crowley) convinces him that the family needs to reconnect, so Martin surprises his wife Jackie (Megyn Price) and his kids with a little experiment, he locks them in their own home with no power, no heat, no running water, and absolutely no contact with the world outside!

The sudden holiday staycation isn't what the Taylors had in mind for the weekend, but they have to team up to prove they can survive Dad's wacky mission.

The multi-talented Writer and director, Corbin Bernsen, also appears in an enjoyable cameo as a cameraman.

So, the doctor said

“I’ll give you some cream to put on that”
