This has to be one of the most terrifying movies I have ever seen. First off, I found the movie on HBO family, and I assumed it was a light hearted family comedy, but boy was I wrong. The movie was extremely backwards, poking fun at a mentally disabled boy, calling him retarded, as well as using racial slurs and swears. In the film, a disabled man lives across the street, whom the neighborhood children are afraid of. I assumed this character would be like Boo from "To Kill a Mockingbird", but once again, I was wrong. It once again seemed very backward, by preying on the handicapped once again, as the character is later revealed to be the antagonist, and abducts, and leaves a three year-old for dead. I assumed it was a light hearted comedy considering Danny Devito was one of the main characters, but he has a serious drinking problem. This film has to be the worst movie I have ever seen, and Im surprised it is still being aired today.
