Eggnog

About This Movie

Eggnog is a quirky little film that blends comedy with a touch of crime and mystery. Directed by Travis Neal, it dives into the absurdity of a detective’s life during the holiday season. Charles Murphy, played with a certain weariness, is on the brink of leaving town when he gets wrapped up in this bizarre case involving a drowning in eggnog. The pacing is surprisingly brisk, considering the odd premise, and the dialogue has that snappy feel that keeps it entertaining. The practical effects around the eggnog mishap are amusingly over-the-top. It’s got that charmingly low-budget vibe that you'll either love or hate, but it definitely stands out for its unique concept and offbeat humor.
