An affable cast almost makes this college-set retelling

An affable cast almost makes this college-set retelling of Victor Hugo's "The Hunchback of Notre Dame" worth watching. Writer and star Allan Katz plays the hunchback, "Bob," who's been hiding at a California university for years, and when he's discovered, the psychology department has one month to prove he's not dangerous or else he'll get locked up. Tom Skerritt and Cindy Williams are probably the biggest names in the film as two of the professors who try to rehabilitate Bob, along with rival professor Jessica Harper, who's convinced Bob is a danger, but the main characters are a boyfriend and girlfriend who befriend Bob. The most fascinating bit of casting is Melora Hardin as the girlfriend and object of Bob's affection, who is best known for playing Jan on THE OFFICE. She's quite likable, and it's fascinating to see Jan as a young 80s Brat Packer of sorts. Corey Parker plays the boyfriend, and the entire cast is likable, but the script is not funny, which makes it kind of a chore to watch. Originally planned as a theatrical release, I now understand why the studio chose to make it a direct-to-video release instead.

I watched it in the cinima when it

I watched it in the cinima when it came out. Thought it was a take on the hunchback of Notre Dame. Couldn't stop laughing and misses some of the lines. Ended up sitting thru it 5 more times. I can still see the rescue party of dogs.
