The Naughty List of Mr. Scrooge (2024)

Ten years after graduation, a group of friends heads back to town for a reunion. They’re all going to stay at Chandler’s in the house she inherited.  The friends have taken different paths in life and want to catch up.  Tabbie brings her boyfriend, which is odd since he wasn’t invited. Who brings an uninvited guest to stay at someone else’s house? 

When weird things start happening, the group wonders if Chandler is messing with them as she used to love pulling pranks. She insists it’s not her. When the maid goes missing and they discover someone elses head in the house, they realize they are in danger.

This leads to a bunch of exposition about the death of Tabbie’s ex-boyfriend right before a performance of a Christmas Carol. So when a killer wearing an old man mask and dressed as Scrooge shows up, they figure the two are related.

This is fairly tame and it’s easy to determine the killer. There is a scene where Tabbie’s boyfriend gets upset she didn’t tell him the backstory about her exes death and the details around it. Why would she? It was traumatic and she’s only known you a few months. Most people don’t trauma dump in new relationships.

Some scenes have a super shallow depth of field 
which makes viewing it kind of nauseating
