Directed by Dick Richards. Written by Richard Rothstein. Starring Catherine Hicks, Wilford Brimley, Edward Herrmann, Peter Billingsley, Stephen McHattie and Paul Le Mat.
Plot: a little boy on vacation with his mother runs afoul of a serial killer
So, Catherine Hicks, her new beau, Paul Le Mat, and her son, Peter Billingsley, go on a road trip. While driving across the country, the curious little boy bugger picks up something he shouldn’t and that’s it. Serial killer after them all.
The effects could have been better. His mother could have actually been of some use. And what is it with this little Billingsley kid and guns? Just say, no, my man. Seriously though, aside from it’s flaws, we would totally own this. It’s a tense little movie. You genuinely want the best for young Billy.
The protagonists are likable, even the step-father. The cast was good, the Freddy Claws was even decent, and there were boob shots, too! And the ending was a positive one. We like that.
I suppose I could list my favorite movies here, but instead I'll give you a strange glimpse into what makes me TaraRomero.
1. I love comic books. I'm particularly into anything X-Men related and everything Harley Quinn.
2. My celebrity crush is Chris Evans (AKA Captain America). He's even more political than I am and he's not afraid to show it, plus he's really, really hot.
3. I love baseball and more importantly the Boston Red Sox, even though I've never even been to Boston. LOL
4. If I won the lottery tomorrow, after paying off my debts, I'd buy a smallish house somewhere in Southern California. I have got to get out of Texas.
5. My cartoon hero is Tina Belcher. Her and I share a soul.
6. I've been rescuing dogs since I was a teenager and firmly believe that fur babies belong inside and on the furniture.
7. I'm very much addicted to Hallmark Channel. I love their sappy movies, especially the Christmas ones.
8. I have 2 tattoos. An "E" on my ankle for my first lost fur baby. And a ladybug on my wrist named George after George Romero told me he liked it. May he RIP.
9. I'm a bit of a night owl. Not that I go out a lot, it's just that I prefer to be up at night and asleep during the day. I'm a vampire like that.
10. I have an unhealthy relationship with potato chips. My favorite are Herr's Sour Cream & Onion.
