This is the third name for the film, which was first called “Parental Guidance Suggested,” and also “Feed the Dog.”
The film comes the production teams of Mad Chance and Starboard Entertainment. The project was lead by Tim Garrick, not only did Garrick direct the film but he also cowrote the screenplay with Scott Russell. The film is based on the popular Ric Browde book titled “While I’m Dead…Feed The Dog.” Joining Gomez and Wolff on screen are Mary-Louise Parker, Elisabeth Shue, Dylan McDermott, Jason Lee, Heather Graham, Cary Elwes, Gary Busey, and Patrick Warburton. A terrific cast to say the least, and the film shouldn’t have any trouble putting people in the theaters with that listing.
