Plots(1)
Sonny (Reynolds) is a freewheeling bachelor who will do anything to avoid physical pain! So when he suddenly is diagnosed with a fatal -- and painful -- disease, he guzzles down a bottle of sleeping pills in an effort to end it all! But his plan not only fails, it lands Sonny in the loony bin beside a demented schizophrenic named Marlon (DeLuise) who is more than eager to help him fulfill his mission! And as each outrageous attempt backfires in a more hysterical way than the last, Sonny realizes that life -- no matter how brief -- is definitely worth living. But tell that to Marlon, who's hell-bent on seeing Sonny's suicide plans -- through to The End! (official distributor synopsis)
