Stars: Jim Carrey, Matthew Broderick, George Segal, George Baker

Director: Ben Stiller

Summary: Steve Kovack tries to slip the Cable Guy fifty dollars, in the time-honoured way, in order to get all the movie channels for free. Except this fellow only wants a friend, doesn't want any money and won't take no for an answer...

When a young urbanite calls to order cable TV for his apartment he gets much more than he bargained for, as the demented title character arrives and proceeds to insinuate his way into the beleaguered customer's life. Raised by television as a child and starved for human contact, the "cable guy" is a darkly hilarious carnation of the modern age. Carey's manic karaoke rendition of Jefferson Airplane's "Somebody to Love" is a twisted highlight.

This is Jim Carrey at his wonderfully menacing best as only he can manage and it will have you on the edge of your seat as you really root for his hapless victim as the Cable Guy (Jim Carrey) won't take no for an answer.
