Gage Dobson is a restless boy who sets Munchie free, a strange creature coming from another dimension, who was imprisoned inside of a cave and who's able to make the wishes expressed by those who become friends of his come true. Gage takes advantage of it in order to make her mother Cathy, who's fallen in love with the unkind professor Elliott, get with Andrea Kurtz (Jennifer Love Hewitt)'s father. The young character portrayed by the then-13 years old Jennifer is Gage's schoolmate. Joy and peace come back in the house, as the guy has always wanted, and Elliott who wanted to abduct Munchie for his own sake will be punished rightly. Humorism is present in some scenes of the film, for example when Gage, angry with the adults who does not understand him and his needs, wishes he'd be dead and inside a coffin, he finds himself observing the external world.
