Before becoming Hollywood’s go-to guys for offbeat biopics (Ed Wood, The People vs. Larry Flynt) Larry Karaszewski and Scott Alexander launched their careers with a deliciously deranged tale of the wild exploits of a red haired tyke and the full-scale comic nightmares that follow him. And their skilled touch shows, elevating a simple premise to new levels of black comedy absurdity. When obnoxious seven year old monster Junior is adopted by Ben & Flo (the lovable John Ritter and his soon to be real-life wife Amy Yasbeck), all hell breaks loose as the blue-eyed cutie terrorizes all that cross his path. No cat, campout, birthday or ball game is safe from this Satanic hellspawn. Co-starring franchise MVPs Jack Warden and Gilbert Gottfried plus Seinfeld’s Michael Richards as an escaped convict known as The Bow Tie Killer!
