Featured review
A truly original comedy in the vein of "Spanking the Monkey"
One of the best little films I've seen in a long time. Don't let the box art on the video fool you, this is NO family film! It's a highly original combination of romantic comedy, gross-out humor with a little bit of heart. Josh Charles (from Sports Night) is an "angry young man" writer who goes to meet his girlfriend's family in Savannah, Ga. The girlfriend is played by Alexandra Wentworth who I've never seen before but she' s funny and sexy and believable, I'd sure go to Savannah for her! Lloyd Bridges is funny/threatening as Wentworth's father, apparently this was his last film (I thought he died after "Mafia" can someone clear this up).
His performance is truly outstanding in this movie. But, in addition to the performances, this director shows flashes of a really whacked-out imagination -- there's a scene with a talking severed toe, a vomiting scene that I can hardly describe and some dialogue that'll really take you by surprise.
