    Starring Judy Greer, Pete Holmes, Elizabeth Tabish and Lauren Graham, the holiday film will open in theaters on Nov. 8.

    "It centers on the Herdmans -- absolutely the worst kids in the history of the world," a synopsis said.

    "They're taking over their local church pageant -- and they just might unwittingly teach a shocked community the true meaning of Christmas."
