Scrooged is a 1988 American comedy film, a modernization of Charles Dickens' 'A Christmas Carol'. Frank Cross (Bill Murray), who has made the meteoric rise from the depths of the mailroom to TV network president, is mean, nasty, uncaring, unforgiving and has a sadistic sense of humour - perfect qualities for a modern-day Scrooge. Before the night is over, he'll be visited by a maniacal New York cab driver from the past, a present-day fairy who's into pratfalls and, finally a ghoulish, seven-foot headless messenger from the future.
