Summary

’Twas the night before Christmas and all through Nakatomi Plaza, not a creature was stirring… except John McClane’s wife played by Bonnie Bedelia. The explosives were wired to the rooftop with care, in hopes that the hostages would soon be there. McClane was bleeding and swearing like a trucker, but still had enough cheer to yell Yippie Kay Yay Mother….oh… hold on. The ultimate Christmas movie deserves the ultimate recasting, today on Buzzn The Tower we take the classic Christmas movie, Die Hard, and recast it with other actors from the 80s. I’m Mo Shapiro and joining me as always, the Ellis to my failed hostage negotiation, Max Sanders. And with that, come out to the coast, we’ll get together, have a few laughs!
