Plot: Phoebe Cates stars in this bizarre comedy that wants to be the kind of stylish comic fable the likes of Tim Burton's Beetlejuice and Pee-wee's Big Adventure but ends up looking like a shabby burlesque about schizophrenia. Cates is Elizabeth, who has recently separated from her philandering husband Charles (Tim Matheson) and moved back home with her harridan mother Polly (Marsha Mason). Back in her old little-girl haunts, she regresses into childhood and recalls her imaginary childhood friend Drop Dead Fred (Rik Mayall), a nasty, ill-tempered sociopath. As a child, Elizabeth created mayhem with her imaginary pal, but Polly locked him up tight in a jack-in-the-box. But now, Elizabeth mistakenly liberates him from the jack-in-the-box, and the newly freed Drop Dead Fred proceeds to wreak more havoc than the Id Monster from Forbidden Planet -- taking vengeance upon all the people who have made Elizabeth miserable -- and then some. ~ Paul Brenner, All Movie Guide

I've seen the movie before and wanted to have it in my collection, but I didn't know that it was a Region 2 movie, and I didn't understand what that was! When I got ready to return it and order the correct DVD I was told I couldn't return it or get a refund, you could imagine my fustration. They said I have to either purchase a Region 2 DVD player or I'm stuck. When I called around to locate one, no one carries them, but they're on Amazon, well they only play international movies so there's no need for me to purchase one. So people, please read carefully what you're about to buy on Amazon from these different sellers, I love Amazon, they're great, but everything isn't alway what it seems! Everyone's not aware about Region 2 DvD players and that they only play international movies!!!
