An unhappy housewife gets a lift from the return of her imaginary childhood friend, Drop Dead Fred.
An invisible, manic childhood companion erupts into a quiet suburban life to shake a repressed housewife out of her domestic doldrums. Rik Mayall brings a chaotic, unhinged energy to this surreal fever dream that blurs the line between psychological coping mechanism and pure slapstick joy.
