I remember the bum giving me nightmares when I was little

Bill Paxton awesomeness with a little Ironsidamania thrown in to boot! This film is great fun and Paxton's character's slide down society's ladder is great (I especially love his reaction to his mother's funeral fiasco). Great stuff, brought to you by, if I remember correctly, Mel Brooks!

The little film that couldn't. It tries hard to be an odd black comedy but ultimately just ends up being odd and not in a good way. Fans of The Cable Guy might be interested
