Mad cap movies is the latest theme and only one of our films really fit that description. "Arsenic and Old Lace" (1944) is the tale of two sweet, old ladies who show kindness to strangers by killing them. Cary Grant stars as their nephew Mortimer who finds out their secret and then zaniness ensues.  "I'm Gonna Git You Sucka" (1988) is great idea, but poorly executed and certainly not mad cap. A parody of Blaxploitation films, Wayans' debut film isn't very funny and  not up to par with some of his later work.

Next, deep cover is the theme with "Deep Cover" (1992) and "Eastern Promises" (2007).
