This week, the DtW trip through the 80s film landscape hits a bit of a bumpy road! Dan and Raul watched Firestarter, a 1984 Stephen King adaptation starring a tiny Drew Barrymore alongside plenty of Hollywood talent about a rogue couple and their pyrokinetic daughter on the run from the clandestine sci-fi government organization responsible for all their unnatural talents. Despite the talent on screen and the material's pedigree, this film was torched back in the day, but the cult following it may have garnered since belies a secret classic of the weird and paranoid that gave us titles like Videodrome and Scanners. Or maybe it's just bad; come find out!
