World's Greatest Dad

Filmed in Seattle, this incredibly strange father-son tale is hilariously twisted and morbidly entertaining. Williams delivers a sympathetic performance as a teacher who runs a poetry class at his disrespectful fetishist outcast son's high school. Sabara is just as good as Williams in the role of the ungrateful son. All other characters are not necessarily two-dimensional, but are unfortunately a little too close to it, despite an excellent supporting cast of Gilmore, Martin, McCall, Pierson and Tony V. Ultimately, an excellent story on how anybody (even a lowlife dimwit) can be a legend… just as long as they die tragically. Goldthwait appears as the driver who takes Williams' character to the talk show.
