Synopsis by Hal Erickson
Cheri, Fais Mon Peur (Honey, Scare Me) is another slapstick smorgasbord tailored to the talents of Jerry Lewis-like farceur Darry Cowl. This time, our hero finds himself up to his neck in espionage. Cowl has in his possession one of those top-secret thingamajigs that puts him at the top of the "Most Wanted" list in both Washington and Moscow. And, of course, Cowl is forced to fend off a bevy of international beauties, while his winsome sweetheart fumes in the background. Three screenwriters were required for the nonstop gaggery of Cheri, Fais Mon Peur.
