Butt Ugly. But Funny.
Alex Winter (of Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure) stars as Ricky Corgan, an arrogant former child star who becomes the celebrity spokesman for toxic fertilizer Zygrot-24. But when Ricky is taken prisoner by demented sideshow impresario Elijah C. Skuggs (Randy Quaid) he is transformed into a hideous mutant freak to join the likes of The Bearded Lady (Mr. T), Sockhead (Bobcat Goldthwait), a human worm, a giant nose, and their fearless leader, Ortiz The Dog Boy (an unaccredited - and unforgettable - performance by Keanu Reeves). Can a hack actor-turned-genetic nightmare now survive an evil conspiracy of corporate sleazebags, desperate milkmen, Rastafarian eyeballs, canned cheese and most horrifying of all, Brooke Shields? It's time to get Freaked!
Morgan Fairchild, Megan Ward and William Sadler co-star in this mind-blowing cult comedy co-directed by Alex Winter and Tom Stern, with music by Henry Rollins, Parliament Funkadelic, Blind Idiot God and Butthole Surfers, and featuring some of the most eye-popping special effects in film freak history!

Freaked Review - 4.75 out of 5 (7/5/2005)
Poor Alex Winter never had a chance in Hollywood.
The fact that you are probably right now thinking to yourself "Who the hell is Alex Winter?" proves my point. The "other" star of the iconic Bill & Ted movies, Alex followed his heart and creative desire when picking projects after his smash success, starting his own show on MTV (The Idiot Box) with fellow writers and friends Tim Burns and Tom Stern instead of following his friend and co-star Keanu Reeves to superstardom.
