Ollie Hopnoodle's Haven Of Bliss

Ollie Hopnoodle's Haven of Bliss was a 1988 film following the family from A Christmas Story on their annual vacation to Ollie Hopnoodle's Haven of Bliss, a set of cabins by a lake. Ralph, now much older, secures a summer job moving furniture along with his friends Flick and Schwartz, thereby risking missing the family vacation. Some creative use of footage from Fritz Lang's Metropolis and an eerie nightmare scene involving a robotic refrigerator provide some entertainment there. After a small subplot involving the disappearance of the family's dog, Fuzzhead (played by the director's pet dog), the family sets off on an epic journey involving bees, windmills, seedy gas stations, and the inevitable life lessons. Well worth watching if you enjoyed A Christmas Story although, Ralph being older, there's less of a sense of childlike wonder. Another sequel to A Christmas Story was My Summer Story, which follows a younger Ralphie despite having been made at a later date.
