DVD - The Billy Madison/Happy Gilmore Collection (Widescreen Special Edition)

 "Happy Gilmore"

As a kid, Happy Gilmore (Adam Sandler) dreamed of becoming a professional hockey player. Unfortunately, he couldn't skate and his hair-trigger temper made him a hothead even by NHL standards. Now as an adult, things aren't going much better: After his girlfriend walks out on him he learns that his grandmother (Frances Bay) is about to lose her house to the IRS. On the brink of despair, Happy discovers that his mediocre hockey skills translate into an almost supernatural ability to hit a golf ball. After country club pro Cubbs Petersen (Carl Weathers) takes him under his wing, Happy joins the PGA tour to try to win enough money to save Grandma's home. But to succeed, he has to defeat tournament favorite Shooter McGavin (Christopher McDonald), an egotistical veteran who will stop at nothing to retain his star status.

"Billy Madison"

Hotel tycoon Brian Madison (Darren McGavin) is on the verge of retirement and wants nothing more than to hand over his empire to his only son Billy (Adam Sandler). The problem is, Billy is a spoiled, immature lout who only graduated from high school thanks to his father's bribery. When Madison Sr. announces his plans to turn over the company to Billy's nemesis, scheming vice president Eric (Bradley Whitford), Billy offers to prove his worthiness by going back to school and completing grades one through 12 again in 24 weeks -. this time without any help. To run this educational gamut Billy must survive a family of bullies, some wacky teachers and a former pro wrestler turned principal. Still, school is a whole lot more fun the second time around, especially when third grade teacher Veronica Vaughn (Bridgette Wilson) turns out to be the girl of Billy's dreams.

Billy Madison features songs by Electric Light Orchestra, The Jackson 5, The Cars, Culture Club, The Ramones and Styx.
