Naptime Nightmares #056 - So I Married an Axe Murderer (1993)


Woman! Woe-man! Whoaaaaaa man! It's a weird 90s romantic comedy as a palette cleanser before Olivia's last episode on the adoption and foster industry! This uniquely off-beat film starring Mike Myers, Nancy Travis, and Amanda Plummer (with some truly...
