I hadn’t watched it since it first came…
Dreamcatcher (2003) – Lawrence Kasdan
I don’t know why this one didn’t work so well twenty years ago.

The Lawnmower Man – Director’s Cut (1992) – Brett Leonard
I remember when The Lawnmower Man came out. Me and some pals from school went to take it in, and we all came out disappointed. There was some potential there, but it didn’t seem to work, and didn’t really entertain. The big draw for me and the guys was the fact that it was based…
