Best for:Friends: Drunken group roast with people who love bad movies·Rewatch: Quote-along nights for cult horror devotees·Background: Chaos ambiance while doing literally anything else
Heads up:Violence: Puppet-on-human violence, mostly absurd not graphic·Sexual Content: Brief topless scene, 90s direct-to-video obligatory

Trivia

Richard Kind (Cat Ghoulie) later voiced Bing Bong in Inside Out, completing perhaps cinema's most unexpected vocal range.

Cultural
