Somehow, Randy is meant to be charming enough to get them to postpone that “move-out date.” He’s supposed to be engaging enough to sweet talk a cop out of a jam. Randy quickly shows himself to be the poster child for California’s notorious “tenant’s rights laws.”

Randy Cockfield (Shore) is hedonism itself, imbibing every drug known to humanity and right in front of them as they poke their noses into the cluttered bordello of collectibles he’s made out of their pool house.īut he’ll be gone in a month and it’ll be fine.

There’s this guy living in the guest house behind the pool. Checking out this roomy ranch-style with a big pool earns a “ Shut up and take our money” to the realtor. Sarah and Blake, played by Aimee Teegarden of TV’s “Friday Night Lights,” and Mike Castle of TV’s “Brews Brothers” are a young couple looking to buy a house. A half hour in, his character gets hit with the haymaker we’ve all been craving lo these many years. It’s “Pacific Heights” without the edge, “Neighbors” without the fun or laughs. That’s a good place for “Guest House,” a Lionsgate comedy about a renter who refuses to leave, the latest “tenant from Hell.” Now the 52 year-old star of “Son in Law,” “Bio-Dome,” “Jury Duty” and so many other abominations during a heyday that lasted longer than anybody could have imagined is back - on Netflix at least. Pauly Shore brought it to the culture, to the movies and to a Blockbuster Video near you. It could take place at a cineplex near you. Long before the Kardashians or Trump press conferences, there was hate-watching.
