Plot

In the heart of the hustle, Kevin Franklin (Sinbad), a fast-talking dreamer, finds himself in the quicksand of failed ventures and mounting debt. Dreaming of his first million, he borrows from the notorious Gasperini Brothers, a decision that pits him against the ruthless mob. His sharp wit and silver tongue, usually his escape route, are insufficient to untangle him from the $50,000 web spun around him. Desperate for an escape hatch, Kevin stumbles upon an unsuspecting family in Pittsburgh's affluent suburbs, The Youngs. With a blend of audacity and improvisation, he slips into the role of a high-profile Baltimore dentist, claiming to be a childhood friend of the workaholic patriarch, Gary Young, whose life is spiraling into chaos. As their unexpected houseguest, Kevin immerses himself in the family's dynamics for a weekend, juggling the dual threat of mobsters on his tail and the risk of his faux identity unravelling. He finds himself in a high-stakes game, where he must outwit the mob and maintain his intricate charade, all while navigating the labyrinth of suburban life. The movie "Houseguest" (1995) is a whirlwind of suspense and humor, a dance on the tightrope of deception. It's a tale of a man daring to outsmart the mob, outmaneuver his own lies and perhaps, along the way, rediscover the simple joys of family life.
