You know exactly what you're getting in
National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation: another goofball, slapstick comedy of chaos and catastrophe with Clark Griswold (Chevy Chase) and family. This time, there's no traveling involved: Clark and Ellen (Beverly D'Angelo) prepare for a nice Christmas with the kids (played by none other than Juliette Lewis and
Roseanne star Johnny Galecki), when their home is invaded by backwoods cousin Eddie (Randy Quaid) and his brood, along with assorted other crazy and/or stuffy relatives. Complications, of course, are inevitable. The film is preceded by
National Lampoon's Vacation (1983) and
National Lampoon's European Vacation (1985) and followed by
National Lampoon's Vegas Vacation (1997). Directed by Jeremiah Chechik, who went on to do
Benny & Joon and the Sharon Stone remake of
Diabolique.
