should become a cult-classic!

Okay, the movie does get a little out-of-hand in the latter part, primarily due to poor over-acting by other-than the primary characters.

But Jennifer Tilly's self-obsessed artist character, on a quest to make penis-molds of every conquest, is hysterical-- a true classic!

I agree with someone else's earlier comment, this movie has been ripped off by some major Hollywood productions-- and yes they were better-made, but I saw this movie on a demo-video before it was even released, and the raw idea for a reality-tv show of an actual family (a la The Osbourne's) started here, with this movie-- a true classic original.

If you're a fan of Jennifer Tilly, this is definitely a "must-see." Hopefully I can re-watch this movie at some point, and add some of the classic quotes to this IMDB listing.

Jennifer Tilly deserved an award for this.

I could listen to Jennifer Tilly's voice until the Sun became a red giant. I don't know if this movie has become a Midnight Movie cult classic anywhere, but it deserves to be for her solo song/dance. I rarely laugh outloud viewing a video alone. I did on frequent occasions for this flick. Jeff Tambor's silent takes..so classic. Robby Benson was repulsively vile as the rep of mindless media intrusion. I'd not heard anything about the movie and just picked it up at the library because of J.T. Now I'd recommend it to anyone who wants a quick elevator out of the dumps.

The worst

Unforgettably bad from the first frame to the last. Utterly uncinematic, wholly uninspired dialogue, and no discernable plot development. Both David Arquette and Jeffrey Tambor seem to have been labotomized. And Jennifer Tilly, try though she might, sinks under the weight of her severely underdeveloped character. For a film that attempts to satirize the superficiality of media culture, this mess comes off more shallow and empty than any reality show currently plaguing the airwaves. Though it clocks in at about 100 minutes, this excruciatingly boring film drags on for what seems like an eternity. Run, don't walk, from this dreck.

Clever and Prescient

This movie is sarcastic yet good-hearted. It sticks it to the bad reality TV guys and has the nice guys come out alright in the end. Jeffrey Tambor is brilliant as the father. Rita Taggart as the mom. The children are well played as well. Leslie Sachs deserves special mention for a sensitive and endearing turn. Made in 1993 this movie is more relevant now than it was then. Then it was a (unheeded) warning and now it's a rueful look at the moronic new millennium.

Hysterical! So much better than Edtv - and made five years prior.

This movie was dark, quirky and sexy. Way better than The Truman Show or EDtv. And judging by the date in the credits - it was made several years before either of the other movies. Looks like the "big guys" ripped this little flick off.
