This was exactly the laugh I needed after the last two weeks! I would like to extend a big THANK YOU and CONGRATULATIONS to our latest Legend's Tier Pick of the Month winner, *CALBAH*,   who suggested the 80s cult classic Better Off Dead. Thanks to Calbah, I finally got to experience the glory of this John Cusack film - "I want my two dollars!!!" - that has long been on my backburnered must-see list.

I've provided the unblurred original with my commentary up top via Streamable (just click the photo thumbnail), and the link for the blurred watch along version can be found here: https://youtu.be/yzVniyHRRMA. For those opting to do the watch along version, remember that you'll need your own copy of the movie to sync up with my reaction.

Thanks again to Calbah and to ALL of you incredible Patrons for your support! I hope that you enjoy this reaction :)

-David

This is always a fun rewatch. John Cusack teamed up with writer/director Savage Steve again just a few years later in the comedy, One Crazy Summer which I used to watch endlessly as a kid if that's something you're interested in (similar vibe, but higher production value). And yeah, that was creepy Dan playing Ricky.

David vs. Film

Ahhhhh yes, One Crazy Summer!! I remember that one but never saw it. And I didn't realize it was Jon Cusack. That was a movie that for the longest time I confused with Wet Hot American Summer because apparently I am a moron.
