Short description
When loser Marvin Mange is involved in a horrible car accident, he's brought back to life by a deranged scientist as half man and half animal. His newfound powers are awesome -- but their adverse side effects could take over his life. Now, Marvin must fight to control his crazy primal urges around his new squeeze, Rianna, and his rival, Sgt. Sisk, who both think he's one cool cat.
What's left behind the scenes
- The Frisbee that Rob Schneider's character catches with his mouth was added to the shot using computer technology.
- A newspaper article about Marvin's father features a photograph of Rob Schneider’s father superimposed onto a picture of a police officer. The actor’s father was also named Marvin, and the film is dedicated to his memory. The car in which Marvin is involved in an accident also belonged to the actor’s father (although cars of the same make and year were also used as duplicates for this scene).
- Rob Schneider's mother played the cameo role of the neighbor, Mrs. Dalerosa.
- Harry Dean Stanton played the role of the hunter, but almost all of the material with him was cut during editing. The actor's name is not in the credits, but he can still be seen in the attack scene – immediately after Marvin (played by Rob Schneider) asks Rihanna (portrayed on screen by Colline Haskell) to tie him up.
- Rob Schneider's mother played the episodic role of the neighbor.
