ABOUT THE FILMS: PROBLEM CHILD, 1990, Dir. Dennis Dugan, 81 Mins, Universal, USA John Ritter, Amy Yasbeck and Jack Warden star in this hilarious comedy with an offbeat sense of humor. Good-natured Ben Healy (Ritter) and his social-climbing wife Flo (Yasbeck) adopt seven-year-old Junior (Michael Oliver) to help brighten their lives. But Junior soon turns an ordinary camping trip, an innocent birthday party and even a little league baseball game into full-scale comic nightmares. Thinking all his new son needs is some loving attention, Ben puts up with Junior’s mishaps—but only to a point. Just as he’s ready to take drastic action, Ben realizes that beneath the little monster lurks an angel craving affection in this satire on the trials of modern-day family life. FORMAT: 35mm PROBLEM CHILD 2, 1991, Dir. Brian Levant, 91 Mins, Universal, USA John Ritter, Michael Oliver, Amy Yasbeck and Jack Warden return in this hysterical comedy with an offbeat sense of humor. Junior (Oliver) and his dad, Ben Healy (Ritter), relocate to a town with an over abundant supply of single women. Junior resorts to his naughty tricks to survive and protect his dad from the clutches of the town’s kid-hating millionairess (Laraine Newman). On the way, Junior manages to create havoc at a carnival and sabotage an ill-fated wedding with the help of the town’s other pint-size terror, Trixie (Ivyann Schwan). The unlikely pair plot to bring their unsuspecting parents together in this subversive satire on the trial of modern-day family life. FORMAT: 35mm
