Hot Water (1924)


Pathé Exchange
Directed by Sam Taylor and Fred Newmeyer
My rating: 2 stars out of 4
IMDb
(DVD, New Line Home Entertainment)

Lloyd is a henpecked husband with in-law problems. In one scene, he wins a turkey at the market but when he takes it home on the streetcar chaos results. For the finale, instead of the usual car chase Lloyd is chased in his own house by what he thinks is his walking dead mother-in-law. Basically a series of long set pieces with little, if any, characterization or plot.
