Summary: Imagine that you get a substandard haircut, and your imaginary friend says, "Got a stupid haircut! Ooh, look at my horrible stupid haircut! Looks just like her mother! Another little mega-bitch!"<br> <br> Or what about when you wear a cute purple dress, but your imaginary friend says, "It looks like a big BRUISE."<br> <br> If any of this sounds familiar, then you're probably Phoebe Cates in 1991's "Drop Dead Fred," a so-called kids movie that drops the s-word in the first 30 seconds and has multiple scenes of a crazy man looking up women's skirts.<br> <br> If you watched "Drop Dead Fred" as a kid, maybe you shouldn't have been allowed to watch it.
