10.26.06DVR Surprisingly Hitchcockian! I haven't seen this in a long time but used to love it when I was a kid... I guess what boy didn't, right? Well it's still 80s goofy and it's still kind of creepy if you think about it - these guys running around trying to kill a kid - and the message of all old people being evil is a bit... weird, but hey all in good fun I guess. I think my big surprise here was seeing WIlliam Forsythe playing an uber-computer nerd who has coke-bottle glasses and writes video games. Considering how tough-guy he is nowadays, it's funny to think of him back then... actually, it's not too long after this that he did Raising Arizona, huh! I think the cosmos is telling me to see that movie again.
