A new red band trailer for A Very Harold & Kumar 3D Christmas has debuted online, and rest assured, this trailer does not waste time getting down to business. Often, red band trailers are almost identical to their all-audiences counterparts, but with a dollop of profanity added. That's not the case for this preview of the third stoner adventure starring John Cho and Kal Penn as the title characters.
The trailer starts with Santa Claus taking a hit from a candycane bong, then proceeds through an orgiastic collage of absurdity that includes a babby happily getting high off no less than two illicit substances, nudity, spurting blood, over-the-top 3D shots, beer pong, lost grills, bad language, a claymation phallus, Jesus on the phone to God, and Neil Patrick Harris in a heaven of mammaries and sexual favors. If any one of those things sounds like your cup of tea, watch the red band A Very Harold & Kumar Christmas trailer right about now.
The trailer, which is distinctly Not Safe for Work, is here courtesy of IGN, so a big thanks in that direction.
Jon Hurwitz and Hayden Schlossberg, who created the series with Harold & Kumar Go to White Castle in 2004 and directed the sequel Harold & Kumar Escape from Guantanamo Bay, once again wrote the screenplay. They're busy directing American Reunion for Universal, though, so Todd Strauss-Schulson joins the unlikely franchise as director this time around.
Cho and Penn are holding it down yet again, while Neil Patrick Harris is once again playing an alternate-reality version of himself. Other players in this holiday-themed adventure include Paula Garces, Thomas Lennon, Danny Trejo, Patton Oswalt, Melissa Ordway, Elias Koteas, Eddie Kaye Thomas, David Krumholtz, and Jake M. Johnson.
A Very Harold & Kumar 3D Christmas is just around the corner, hitting theaters on November 4th.
