About Ball in the Family
Itchy and Eatit Bonker have a nice house in Queens, a very beautiful daughter who is a nymphomaniac, a mooching son-in-law who is hung like a horse, and a fondness for fooling around every chance they get. Come spend a day with them as they try to keep it...
Directed by Joseph W. Sarno, Ball in the Family leans on a strong ensemble — Shanna McCullough, Jacqueline Lorians, Christine Robbins — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about comedy titles of 1988.
