Here's a silly game. (It only works in Internet Explorer 4.0 or better)

• "Just like Michelangelo saw the angel in the stone, I can look at a guy like Kevin Costner and see a giant peach grub who can fart "The Blue Danube," -Elijah C. Skuggs

• "It's about getting Mr. T to wear a dress,"-Tom J. Stern

• "I co-wrote it (Freaked) and co-directed it and gave about 40 ounces of my own blood. I'll be collecting money from everyone in the audience later to try to pay myself back,"-Alex Winter

FREAKED is Tom and Alex's tour-de-force look at the sideshow freak traditition. It is a comedy first and foremost with many other elements mixed in such as sci-fi, horror, action, and even wrestling!

FREAKED is the story of a struggling former child actor named Ricky Coogin (played by Alex Winter) who, to the tune of $5 million, endorces a toxic brand of fertilizer called Zygrot 24. EES (Everything Except Shoes) has him and his pal, Ernie(Michael Stoyanov-Joey's friend on "Blossom") fly to Santa Spam, I mean Santa FLAN where Rick will be their South-American spokesperson. They are followed by an annoying little Troll(Alex Zuckerman) and have Morgan Fairchild as a flight attendant.

The boys land only to be greeted by a herd of protesters, but Rick takes a liking to one of them(Megan Ward) and decides to impersonate a cripple to gain her affection. They all end up at FREEKLAND, an out of the way, bottom of the barrel freak exhibit run by the hilariously demented redneck, Elijah C. Skuggs (played by Randy Quaid in his best role ever!). Little do they know Skuggs is intending to make them his next star attractions...

20th. Century Fox originally had such high expectations for the movie known as Freaked that they devised a line of toys, a comic book, and a novel adaptation of the film.
