Plot Summary
In this riotous British satire, a conniving Catholic priest convinces a dying tycoon into writing the church into his will by having him add the following proviso: the tycoon's children will only inherit the fortune if one of them can produce an heir within one year after his death. If they fail, all the money will go to the Church. The priest is well aware that the magnate's son is gay and that his daughter is a lesbian. After the ailing fellow signs the will, the priest allows him to die. The two siblings soon find themselves pursued by two aspiring real estate agents who want some of that money for themselves and agree to let the middle-aged siblings adopt them. A voluptuous seductress also has her eye on the family fortune and she tries to sway the brother into giving her a go.

Customer Reviews
too much sun
not worth the $0.99 rental fee.
One of the worst films ever made
First off, it's just a bad movie. It tries for satire but it's really just offensive. Second, what makes the flick even more infuriating is that there are some talented people in front of the camera (including Robert Downey Jr. during what one can easily guess was at the height of his substance abuse problems) all of which come out looking very, very foolish. It tries way too hard, but comes up with only horrific stereotypes and even worse attempts at jokes. You've been warned.
