A witty and sometimes hilarious and knowing comedy from writer Elmore Leonard and director Barry Sonnenfeld, Get Shorty was exactly the correct next step for Travolta, whose knockout work with Tarantino in Pulp Fiction put him back on the fast track for a long, winning comeback.

Released directly to video the same year the much bigger Jurassic Park exploded into theaters, Full Moon's cute, corny low budget family film Prehysteria! capitalized on the dino craze of the season and cashed in a quick buck in the home video market.

It came at the crux of the pop culture boom that celebrated Max Headroom, the buddy cop movie formula, and Saturday Night Live.

A bona fide cult classic, Killer Klowns lives and dies by its incredibly rad looking make-up and special effects by the brothers Chiodo Brothers (director Stephen and his collaborators Charles and Edward).

An obvious homage to James Cameron's first two Terminator movies (there's even a scene where T2 is acknowledged), Kin operates on a small budget and has some grand implications in the science fiction genre, but it falls short in style and execution, as well as in the character department.

“Look - you fools! You’re in danger - can’t you see? They’re after you, they’re after all of us! Our wives, our children - everyone! They’re here already! You’re next!”
