Movie Reviews of Runaway Daughters
Movie Review: Just exactly my kind of movie!
Summary: 5 Stars
What fun! This is a 1994 remake of an American International Pictures Drive In movie from 1957. It is an homage to AIP from beginning to end. I bought it because it starred a teenage JULIE BOWEN and I know director Joe Dante always puts actor DICK MILLER (a particular fav of mine) in all his movies. I wasn't disappointed. It was cool to see the young Julie and Dick playing a private detective was a hoot. Lot's of AIP in jokes thruout. Male lead's last name is "Rusoff" ... Lou Rusoff penned the 1957 original screenplay and many AIP movies. (Kid's dad is played by FABIAN, former 1960's heart throb and AIP star). Roger Corman and his real life wife, Julie, play parents. I always wondered what Julie Corman looked like. AIP VP SAM ARKOFF has a cameo. Need a fill up? Buy American International gasoline. The daughters live in Alta Vista. The film is set in the mid-1950's, true to the original. I loved this as it was like discovering a lost '50's movie. I wonder if Dante made more of these? If, like me, you grew up on AIP, you won't want to miss RUNAWAY DAUGHTERS.
Summary of Runaway Daughters
Dimension Home Video presents RUNAWAY DAUGHTERS, the sassy comedy about three teens in the fabulous '50s who set off on a highway adventure. Paul Rudd ("Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy"), Julie Bowen (TV's "Ed,"), and Dee Wallace-Stone ("E.T.") star in this fun comedy, based on a 1956 drive-in classic. Stuck in 1950's suburbia, Angie, Mary and Laura are best friends and tired of the same old things. Everything changes when Mary's deadbeat boyfriend skips town, prompting the girls to break all the rules by faking their own kidnapping, stealing a car and chasing him down the highway. But their dangerous travels put them in peril, and they realize that their sheltered lives may not have been so bad after all.Similar DVD Movies
