Details Movie Rated: R; Genre: Comedy; With: Lloyd Bridges and Josh Charles; Distributor: Paramount Home Video

In Meeting Daddy, a smart, sophisticated city guy (Charles) visits his girlfriend's family for the first time and finds himself surrounded by oh-so-colorful eccentrics. Surprised? These Holy Rolling, Confederate flag-waving cranks are worse than clichéd; they're downright unpleasant. And that's before a siege of stomach flu leads to group projectile vomiting. The late Mr. Bridges, as crustily caricatured Daddy, could hardly have capped his career with a more ignoble credit. D+
