In the smog-choked dystopian Los Angeles of 2019, blade runner Rick Deckard is called out of retirement to terminate a quartet of replicants who have escaped to Earth seeking their creator for a way to extend their short life spans.
Editor's Verdict
"Blade Runner is widely considered a 'culturally adjacent' Christmas film due to the strong and symbolically significant presence of the holiday within its environment, even though the core narrative of rogue androids is not inherently Christmassy. The neon-drenched, wet setting heavily features Christmas signage and lights, which contribute significantly to the film's mood and thematic exploration of artificial life and humanity, aligning with the 'iconography' and 'setting' criteria at a moderate level."
