Anderson, Cody Beard   This movie is AWFUL—so terrible that it spawned a sequel, an animated TV series, and a TV movie. Ben (John Ritter) works for his father, Big Ben (Jack Warden), a tough—and crooked—sporting goods dealer. Ben and his wife (Amy Yasbeck) decide to adopt a son and are conned into taking Junior (Michael Oliver) from the orphanage. They have more than they can handle with the mean, destructive demon. And then there's the bow-tie killer. Low-class humor.
