Storyline

April has just graduated from an exclusive Southern college. She's just returned home to her family mansion to prepare for her semi-arranged marriage to "the right man", a man approved by April's father, a Senator. During a trip to the local fair, April meets Perry, the kind of man she always wanted but never knew. Her parents are aghast, as Perry is exactly the kind of man they don't want her associating with. April must reconcile the expectations of her family and her fiancée with the passion she feels for Perry.

User Reviews

Camp it up at the Junction

Though Fenn is very pretty, I'm a little surprised so many found this sexy,

even..well... GOOD. Too bad we have heard so little from this actually quite witty actress since "Twin Peaks."

That said, TMJ is great silly trash fest fun; with some real mind bending

cameos from once respectable stars. I remember I saw this with a friend after we read the synopsis in the paper, and I thought, "I have to see this". I was not disappointed. Burl Ives, who had been assumed dead(by me) for at least a

decade, was the capper. What would Rudolph say?

Highly recommended "so bad it's good."
