Trailer Park Boys: Countdown to Liquor Day is an upcoming Template:Fy Canadian comedy/crime film based on the hit television series Trailer Park Boys. The film was directed and co-written by Mike Clattenburg, the show's creator and director, who also directed the first film Trailer Park Boys: The Movie. Countdown to Liquor Day will conclude the Trailer Park Boys franchise, and is not a direct sequel to the first film, but more of a continuation of "Say Goodnight to the Bad Guys", the final Trailer Park Boys television special that ended the series. The film follows Ricky, Julian and Bubbles, this time as they are released from prison and return to their hometown in Sunnyvale Trailer Park. Countdown to Liquor Day will be released in Canada on September 25, 2009.

Plot

Ricky, Julian and Bubbles are about to get out of jail, and this time, Julian vows to go straight, even open a legit business. Soon the boys will all be rich. At least that's what they've told the parole board.

But when they arrive back at the park, they find it's not the same old Sunnyvale, and it's not the same old Jim Lahey, Trailer Park Supervisor. Lahey's a new man, hasn't had a drink for two years (bullshit). And he has plans—big plans—for Sunnyvale. But unfortunately for Lahey, Julian stands in his way. With his big plans for Sunnyvale going down the toilet, his relationship with Randy broken down, and having the Boys back in the park is all way too much pressure for him to bear. For Jim Lahey, the countdown to liquor day is on.

Meanwhile, Julian's having problems of his own and the Boys are forced to resort to doing what they know best—breaking the law. Lahey's descent into the liquor coupled with the Boys descent into crime puts them all on a collision course to mayhem and destruction. [1]

Production

Trailer Park Boys: Countdown to Liquor Day is the second film to be based on the cult television series Trailer Park Boys, following the first film, Trailer Park Boys: The Movie. The film was directed by Mike Clattenburg, the creator and director of the series and director of the first film.

Countdown to Liquor Day is not a direct sequel to the first film, but a conclusion to "Say Goodnight to the Bad Guys", the final television special that concluded the series. [2] [3] Much like the first film, Countdown to Liquor Day sees the cast from the television series reprise their respective roles.
