The world of wrestling has given us many great icons over the past several decades and none were bigger than Hollywood Hulk Hogan! With his trademarked "Hulkamania!" and "Brother" catchphrase, Hogan brought the world of wrestling to life with rivals like Andre the Giant and the Iron Sheikh. In the 90's however, the Hulkster decided to get some acting chops in with films like Suburban Commando and today's film: 1993's family-comedy Mr. Nanny.
Burnt out wrestler Sean Armstrong is hired by negligent father Alex Mason (Sean Pendleton) to bodyguard his young children Alex Jr. (Robert Hy Gorman) and Kate (Madeline Zima). With his manager and pal Burt Wilson (Sherman Hemsley) Sean must avoid falling victim to the kid's Home Alone-esq boobytraps as they try send the muscle man packing. But when the crazed Tommy Thanatos (David Johansen) kidnaps Mr. Mason and the kids for the billion dollar missile defense chip Mason Sr. designed, Sean must jump into action to save the kids and bring this dysfunctional family back together. Does Hulk Hogan prove he's a film worthy action hero? Are these kids the real villains of the film? Why does Thanatos have the Axis of Evil henchmen? Join Lucas and Cordell as we babysit this forgotten gem.
