The 1990s were a transitional period when the bombast of the 80s hit the dawn of the technology age full blast. I went to see a lot of movies in the theater and I watched even more on home video. Here is my list of ten forgotten comedy gems of the early 90s.
- Bill Murray plays Bob, the extremely phobic mental patient who tracks down his vacationing doctor to continue his therapy.
- Dana Carvey is a con man who assumes the identity of a house sitter to steal some money to pay off a gangster.
- Martin Short plays a precocious boy whose only goal is to go to the Dinosaur World theme park.
- Chris Elliot plays a “fancy lad” who accidentally boards the wrong boat.
- Martin Short takes his family on a crappy sailboat adventure with Kurt Russell as their eccentric captain.
- Mike Myers wonders if his new wife is actually a serial axe murderer.
- Frank Whaley is an idiot overnight janitor at a Target and encounters a love interest and two thieves in one crazy shift.
- Dana Carvey plays a private investigator with amnesia that prevents him from remembering what happened the previous day.
- Chevy Chase and Demi Moore are a couple who take a wrong turn on a road trip and find themselves in deep hillbilly doo-doo.
- Martin Short is the world’s second most unlucky person. Danny Glover enlists his help to find the world’s most unlucky person.
What About Bob should be #1!

Yeah. I agree. The list was easy to compile as a group, but not easy to order. It was made worse by spending all of the time trying to wrestle with the formatting. I need to find a plugin for easy top 10 lists.
