  According to the synopsis it's Death that is impersonating this
"Hogfather", rather than someone becoming the new Grim Reaper.

That is right, sorry, lazy reading.
I don't know any films where the Grim Reaper is replaced but Sir Terry 
wrote one where he takes a holiday (Soul Music). Piers Anthony wrote a 
book where a photographer is about to commit suicide, but instead kills 
Death and must assume his office (On a Pale Horse).

"On a Pale Horse" by Piers Anthony comes to mind. (Don't bother with the 
rest of the series, tho. :-)

It's not quite the same, but the TV series "Dead Like Me" has a 
relatively similar premise.  I've only seen a few episodes, but I think 
I recall thinking it was a good show.
