ByDIAHANNNADEAU Herald Special Madhouse is the kind of movie that makes you wish they put rum in the cola at the concession counter This is a doubly frustrating film what happens to the main characters Is frustrating and the movie itself is irntatingly bad At least the actors get to booze it up the audience is left low and dry John and Kirstie Alley are Mark and Jessica Ban a happy couple with good career prospects and a nice house in Santa Monica Their storybook life is destroyed with the arrival of Marks cousins from New Jersey Fred John an unemployed henpecked sewer leaner his crass and crabby wife and her exorcist cat Scruffy You know the movie is heading into script purgatory when the cat vomits on the way home from the airport Linda Blair would have envied that projection Well the trio are the houseguests of your nightmares and things on ly get worse when Jessicas sister Claudia Alison and her son move in after her Arab band towel head throws them out If that isnt enough the Ban accidentally set the neighbor house on fire and behold father and two bratty children move in as well You can Imagine the hilarity en suing from this situation you Oddly enough neither can the script writers The cat is buried four times a pet snake is thrown into the garbage disposal its an animal lovers nightmare These people are desperate for laughs but not desperate enough to write funny scenes MOVIES M I and Alley play likeable but wimpy characters taking about an hour and half too long to throw the guests out Both would have better spent their time on their television shows which are far superior to this mess Alison Linda of Duet fame plays a greedier Linda here Everyone is wasted in this film in eluding the cat Madhouse is just another entry into the stupid and forgettable comedy category One can see worse but that would be masochistic YELLOW CAB HALTON HILLS HOUR SERVICE SERVING HILLS AhportSonrtco DaHvary 8732527 8732931 S 8731409 Home of The Bos Country Music For
