The third in the series of National Lampoon`s `Vacation` films, this sequel concerns the Griswold family`s holiday get-together. This time they`re trying to have a picture book, old-fashioned Christmastime--even though all the in-laws are dropping by, including Clark`s (Chevy Chase) redneck cousin, Eddie (Randy Quaid). Looks like it`s going to be a real holly-jolly holiday--if they can make it through.

Crazy Little Thing (DVD)
Jenny McCarthy stars in this romantic comedy as Whitney, a TV reporter who moves to New York for a shot at landing a spot on a big network. Career minded and meticulous, Whitney also dreams of finding romance with a well-heeled gentleman.

Although the two don`t quite hit it off at first, subsequent chance meetings almost force the two polar opposites into romance.R"

Dickie Roberts: Former Child Star (VHS)
In the reverse rags-to-riches story of DICKIE ROBERTS: FORMER CHILD STAR, writer/actor David Spade`s string of infectious laughs turn into waves of compassion. Former child star Dickie Roberts (Spade) has wound up working as a valet, dodging insults and lamely making attempts to regain his former glory with the help of his equally down-and-out agent, Sidney Wernick (Jon Lovitz). His buddy, the real-life recovering child star Leif Garrett, tells Dickie about a role in a Rob Reiner film that could revive Dickie`s acting career. But Reiner is not convinced Dickie, whose mother and father left him at an early age, knows enough about normal life to nail the role. Dickie shows his commitment to the craft by moving in with a hired surrogate family to replicate the idea of childhood, but does not win points with his new Mom (Mary McCormack) when he introduces her kids to repugnant table manners, irreverent behavior, and foul language. As he absorbs the true meaning of tenderness and family, Dickie finally proves that he has something to offer each one of them. Spade and executive producer Adam Sandler find classic comedy in this retro theme, which includes appearances from former child stars like Danny Bonaduce (Danny in THE PARTRIDGE FAMILY) and Barry Williams (Greg from THE BRADY BUNCH). As with JOE DIRT (2001), Spade also shows a tender side, which is surprising coming from the king of deadpan one-liners and brutal sarcasm.PG-13"

Set in a strange, colorful land populated by fairy tale characters, SHREK is a hilarious comedy that will win over audiences of children and adults alike. Shrek (voiced by Mike Myers) is a fearsome green ogre living in isolation in his own cozy little swamp. He is not receptive to visitors, and fends off the occasional party of torch-wielding villagers with ease. But when the power-hungry Lord Farquaad (John Lithgow) turns Shrek`s swamp into a relocation camp for dozens of banished fairy-tale characters (including some pesky dwarves, wolves, and fairies) Shrek`s quiet, introverted life is ruined. Joined by the talkative Donkey (Eddie Murphy), Shrek makes his way to Farquaad`s realm of Duloc, where the Lord promises makes Shrek and offer: He will rid Shrek`s land of the unwanted visitors if Shrek will go on a simple quest to free Princess Fiona (Cameron Diaz) from her remote, dragon-guarded castle and convince her to marry Farquaad. On their quest, Shrek and Donkey run into a number of bizarre situations, and Shrek finds himself realizing that he isn`t quite the fearsome monster he has always made himself out to be. Reinventing the traditional fairy tale adventure, SHREK features gorgeous computer animation, a unique sense of humor, and compelling characters--especially Eddie Murphy`s lovable Donkey.

A Shock to the System (VHS)
Michael Caine stars in this black comedy as Graham Marshall, a hardened advertising executive who has certainly paid his dues, but embarks on a series of cleverly plotted murders when he is passed over for a promotion. Fueled by his newfound ability to kill, Graham uses his maniacal authority to truly reach the top. Caine is brilliant in this clever satire on the cutthroat business world.R"
