Son of the Mask

This Jim Carrey-less sequel to the 1994 comedy about a mask that unleashes the wearer’s id offers not just one, but two entries into the annals of repulsive computer-generated movie characters. Jamie Kennedy’s nightmarish game-show host shtick while wearing the mask is only slightly less unnerving than the antics of his character’s infant son, who was conceived under the influence of the mask. He makes that creepy talking Quiznos baby seem worthy of a cuddle.
