So | Married An Axe Murderer % & % (Tri-Star) Rated Mature (playing
at a Cineplex Odeon theatre near you)

ILL WAS in the Mafia, Sherrie was a klepto and Pam

So, why did he marry an axe
murderer? The clues were all
there. Three men mysteriously
disappeared on their honeymoon
— Ralph the plumber, a lounge
singer from Atlantic City and a
Russian martial arts expert.

_ And Harriott (Nancy Travis), his
betrothed from the butcher shop,
calls out Ralph’ in her sleep
and has an Atlantic. City oosier
decorating her wall alongside a
display of martial arts weapons,

But it was love at first sight when
Charlie met Harriott at the counter
of an international meat delicacies
shop (bits and bobs of animals you
really don’t want to know anything
about). :

customers — he offered to help
with the briskets and the rump
roasts. Ah, ask not for whom the
wedding bells toll...)

__ This thick slab of comedy,
marbled with suspense, hits the
bull’s eye with a very funny cast.

Myers plays a dual role as his
own father — Stuart, a haggis-lov-

Think I'm Sexy” with a thick Scot-

Mom (Brenda Fricker) is a lusty
lass with a powerful pucker for
Tony (Anthony Lapaglia), Charlie's

friend and not-so-undercover cop.

Claire (Noni Hazelhurst) is nine
months pregnant with the baby of
her friends, Sandy and Michael.
Since Sandy couldn't conceive,
they had adopted two refugee
children, but now she wants a
“new one,” not a grown child.

So Claire offered to be a sur-
rogate by having sex with Michael
(what are friends for?) and now
they’re all in her home on Perse-
verance Lane waiting for the birth.

Unfortunately, while Claire is
waiting to give birth, the audience
is waiting for the picture and
sound to clear up on this poorly
transferred video,
