DEAD OR ALIVE? EVEN MCMAHON WON'T TELL.

Needless to say, the family's annual Christmas letter will be a little confusing this year.

``It's one of those mind-bending, psychological-horror freakouts,'' McMahon says of the movie, due in March. ``It was a little strange playing a normal guy because, as an actor, you always want to be doing something. This guy doesn't do anything. I had to keep telling myself: `Stop. Be still. This guy is steadfast.' ''

``Doom hasn't changed -- he still wants to rule the world and kill the Fantastic Four,'' McMahon says. ``He's a simple man, really. The great thing is, we don't have to waste any time establishing his character. You get the bad guy from the beginning. It's great demonic, cartoony stuff.''
