Modern Problems -- While driving home from work, a frazzled air-traffic controller finds himself blessed with telekinetic powers when a nuclear dumptruck spills some slimy green matter on him. He uses this power for revenge and ends up with some bizarre problems.

Based on Truman Capote's bittersweet memoir, this often-witty coming-of-age drama looks at a young man growing up with an unusual family in the deep south in the 1940s. After the death of his parents, Collin Fenwick, played by Edward Furlong ("American History X," "Terminator 2: Judgment Day"), finds himself living in a small town with his two aunts, Dolly, played by Academy Award-nominee and Emmy and Golden Globe-winner Piper Laurie ("Carrie," TV's "Twin Peaks") and Verena, played by Academy Award and Golden Globe-winner Sissy Spacek ("Carrie," "Coal Miner's Daughter"). Verena is the more stable of the two, an entrepreneur who controls a number of local businesses and rules the roost with a firm hand. Dolly, on the other hand, is a gentle eccentric who claims to hear the voices of the dead as the wind whistles through the grass, and has developed a homemade concoction that supposedly cures dropsy.

Max Fielder (Chevy Chase) is having a terrible day. He hates his job, his girlfriend left him, and on his way home from work a dumptruck spills nuclear waste on him and his car. Max regains some optimism after he realizes the fallout from the radiation has given him magical, telekinetic powers! Using these powers, Max attempts to win back his girlfriend by thwarting the attempts of her suitors and exacting a little revenge on all of those poor souls who have annoyed him along the way.
