Welcome to one of Aidan’s favourite ‘80s cult sci-fi films. Also, welcome to an hour of Aidan trying to persuade Adam that The Hidden is a worthy addition to the canon of ‘80s cult sci-fi films. Is he successful? Spoiler alert: sorta.

Unfortunately for Adam, he’s not the one who does these writeups. The Hidden is a weird, rough gem of a movie that packs in gooey alien special effects with a pointed critique of Reagan-era greed and consumerism. You should watch this movie every Christmas with your family.

ADAM [imagined]: This movie was okay but it was derivative and kind of dumb. It looked like the filmmakers wanted to make a Terminator knockoff that was also a Thing knockoff, so I guess they succeeded?

AIDAN: You aren’t the real Adam so I win this argument. The Hidden rules.

ADAM [imagined] Foiled again or something.

AIDAN: Listen below or find us on your podcaster of choice.
