Bubba Ho-tep tells the "true" story of what really became of Elvis Presley. We find Elvis as an elderly resident in an East Texas rest home, who switched identities with an Elvis impersonator years before his "death," then missed his chance to switch back. He must team up with JFK and fight an ancient Egyptian mummy for the souls of their fellow residents.
Editor's Verdict
"The movie 'Bubba Ho-tep' is entirely focused on Elvis, JFK, and an Egyptian mummy fighting in a rest home. There is no indication that the setting, plot, themes, iconography, or resolution have any connection to the Christmas season."
