After finding this pic .. I totally want to see this flick again now. I wasn't a huge fan, but I love to revisit 80's movies that I haven't seen in a very long time. Plus, I've found a new appreciation of for several movies lately by how I view them now. [Cool]

just watched this for the first time,tuned out to be quite a fun little movie,loved the video shop setting, what with the teen wolf,hamburger the motion picture,jake speed,the delta force, etc. posters on the walls. kevin dillon has always been a likeable actor starring in some great movies (the blob & catholic boys to name just 2) and he turns in another decent performance here,i felt jennifer tilly was slightly underused and should of had a bit more screen time! deborah goodrich also turns in a likeable performance and is also very easy on the eyes! for anyone wishing to watch remote control here's a link to the entire film on youtube http://youtu.be/54M3pBO7LbY .

Definitely k!

Thanks to Lovers our youtube afficionado for sending me the link.. I watched "Remote Control" on Sunday.

"Remote Control" is a total B-movie .. but similar to Warrior's observations .. I have to say it was more fun than I remembered. Getting to see several video rental stores with their shelves full of VHS tapes was a blast. The "Teen Wolf" poster was my fav, but there are so many more.

And the fashion can only be described as 80's space age chic. Nothing I would ever wear, but it was quite stylish in a bizarre way.

But my fav part of the movie was the new wave dance club... Retro. It reminded me a bit of the warehouse club out of "Modern Girls".
