Runaway
 

Anybody remember this? I watched it not to long ago and was actually suprised by how much I enjoyed it. Total cheesey shitfest with some great campy moments. Gene Simmons actually makes quite a good bad guy (I liked him in Wanted: Dead or Alive also). Whatever happened to old Magnum he used to be in some pretty cool shit? Maybe its a good thing he's not about as much these days......

heck, it's been years since I saw this, must have still been in my early teens.

wasn't this the one where loads of robots went haywire, and he's in some sort of police unit that tracks them down... I thought it was quite good from what I can remember.

Re: Re: Runaway
 

Yep that's the one. Gene Simmons tampers with various robots making them killers (and he has a fucking cool gun with bullets that track people down round corners and shit) then its up to big Tom to sort it all out.

the robots are those little things that look like bugs ..
i have it on VHS somewhere ..

one of 3 or 4 in a row where simmons played a bad guy.. all around the same time

Good movie with the always likable Tom Selleck and the hot pre-fat actress Kirstie Alley.

LONDON - A soft, pungent cheese from northern France has topped a British researchers' study of the world's whiffiest cheeses.

Academics at Cranfield University north of London said Friday that Vieux Boulogne, a Normandy cheese made from cows' milk, was the smelliest of 15 cheeses tested. Two other Normandy cheeses, Pont l'Eveque and Camembert, came second and third.

Scientists at the university used human sniffers and a computer-linked "electronic nose" to rank the cheeses by odorousness.

Stephen White, who led the research, said the smelliest cheeses were those whose rinds had been washed in brine, brandy or _ as with Vieux Boulogne _ beer.

"There was no obvious correlation between the age of the selected cheeses and smelliness, nor type of milk origin, although cows' milk cheeses did dominate the smell chart," White said.

Vieux Boulogne owes its distinctive orange color and pungent smell to the brushing of its rind with beer during the two months it spends aging in cellars around the town of Boulogne-sur-Mer in northern France.

The top 10 whiffy dairy products in the survey, commissioned by a a group that promotes French cheese in Britain, came from France. Munster, a cow milk's cheese from the eastern regions of Alsace and Lorraine, was fourth, followed by Brie de Meaux and Roquefort.

What other movies has he been a bad guy in? The only other one I've seen with him as a villian was Wanted: Dead or Alive with Rutger Hauer (I should check that out again I used to really dig that movie as a kid).

"Trick or Treat" and "Never Too Young to Die"..I locked him up and he has played in more movies than I was aware of.....the latest was "Be Cool"..with Travolta

Never Too Young To Die? Did that have John Stamos in it as a teen spy or something. I think I remember that one from when I was a kid.

i know vanity was in it .. but i cant remember who the 'hero' was.

Heh! I remember Vanity used to turn up in everything! I used to really dig the movie Action Jackson (with Carl Weathers) that she was in. Gotta love those "What do you call a man with no arms and legs in ..........? jokes. I'm gonna have to find some of those 80s action movies I grew up on as kid to add to my collection.
