Writer/Director David Castigolone brings us the campy holiday SOV classic " An Ex Hooker's Christmas Carol. Known for his horror classics and frequent collaborations with WAVE productions takes up another genre.
Milly played with delightful up by Laura Giglio shines here. It's beginning to look look like Christmas and Milly gets arrested. For her probation she becomes a guardian angel for a mentally challenged man named Keith (Timothy Hawk). It's Christmas time and miracles do happen and magical snowmen grants her wishes and she jumps from one scenario to another.
Now her own life has changed and things are terribly wrong. Her wishes are granted but everything has a price and now Milly needs to go back to the way things were. Be careful for what you wish for.
This movie while sometimes campy and doesn't take it self to seriously, really has Laura Giglio showing her acting. She is emotionally charged in this and is a real treat to watch. From being a tough as nails hooked to a warm hearted soul.
Her performance and David's direction takes this a step above many other movies along this genre.
Every scene Laura has she give it all and you really feel her pain. Can Keith and the snowman make everything better. A Christmas miracle is needed!
David Castigolone plays multiple roles and is hilarious. This movie works well cause it has fun witty writing and scenarios. The actors all take there parts seriously and really hit home runs with there performances. This was s SOV at it best and still holds up
23 years later as a classic. Catchy Christmas tunes and the Jingle all the way by the cast at end was fun! Maybe even Keith will get his at the end with a Lil help from Lisa D Hawk!
