Runaway! - KRW - 01-26-2005
Anybody here remeber a film by Michael Crichton called "Runaway"? I found it and bought it and watched it! Whoa, the memories that came back! I loved this movie when I was young and it's it seems I stiil love it! I always like a Tom Selleck movie, but when I first watched this movie was the first time I had ever seen Gene Simmons without make-up on (He was in the rock group KISS)! It blew me away that he looked like an ordinary guy!
Great movie! I loved those bullets! Anyone else remember this one?

Couldn't remember it at first, until you said Tom Selleck & Gene Simmons, then I remembered it. It had those creepy little insect-like robots.

I remember seeing this in theatres, and again on TV not so long ago, but do you remember one of Gene Simmons's earlier works in "Kiss Meets the Phantom"?

And, yes, I vaguely remember Runaway with the robotic spider-things.

He loved the "spiders".

Yes! I remember this movie! Japanese title was "Mirai Keisatsu", it's meaning "Future police". Anyway, I like this movie,too. Spider robot, rocket bullets, car chase bombs....yeah, everything cool. Still, I have Laser Disc.
BTW, anybody remember another Crichton's movie, West World? That gun-man robot,Yul Brinner(sp?) was cool. I think Runaway and West World are Jurassic Park's origin. Don'cha think so?

Actually it's "Kiss Meets the Phantom of the Park". A long title if you ask me. I saw it as a kid, and always remembered it with the shortened title, don't remember much about the movie itself though, since I couldn't have been more than 9 or 10 years old.

This movie was referenced in an article in SYNC magazine listing the "The 50 Biggest Nerds of All Time." KISS came in at 27 because of this movie.
