Throw Momma from the Train (1987). A bitter ex-husband wants his former spouse dead. A put-upon momma's boy wants his mother dead. Who will pull it off?
Danny DeVito's feature directorial debut! It's pretty hard to deny his talent for comedic timing and this film is high energy for the entirety of its short run time, but my feelings for it overall are pretty mixed. It's genuinely funny, and DeVito is in top form as a wannabe writer living under his abusive mother's thumb, but as a whole, this movie just feels really sexist and liberal use of gendered slurs as well as the lingering on violence against women, particularly the choking scene towards the end, just left a bit of a bad taste in my mouth. Not really for me, unfortunately. 5/10.

The Goonies (1985)
Smoking: After School Special
You know in the beginning when Robert Davi is faking dead in the county jail, I never understood how he knocked that cop out. It is one of the fakest hits I think I’ve seen in a movie. I mean sure it is 985, but it doesn’t have to be that terrible.
Introducing all the kids throughout the police chase is brilliant through Steven Spielberg. I think my favorite is Corey Feldman when he turns off the tv for the sirens and then the sirens keep going and he hits the tv 😂 just turn around.
True brother-ship right there. Josh Brolin and Sean Astin definitely act like how brothers would.
Ke Huy Quan is my favorite though. All his inventions.
F**king CF. All of those crazy things he “translated” for Lupe Ontiveros. “Always separate the drugs” 🙄
Jeff Cohen… so loud, so annoying. Let’s just yell as loud as you can that these people are going to kill you to where they can hear you. Like tf
Anne Ramsey is definitely one of the scarier mob ladies I think I’ve ever seen. She was definitely a great choice to play Mama Fratelli.
Kerri Green and Martha Plimpton running into the restaurant screaming after finding fish heads on a rake. KG “it jumped right out of the bushes” 🙄 big babies.
Guess Nike paid for some ad space. Saw 2 clear shots of different kinds of shoes as they lowered into the tunnel.
I absolutely love when they starting banging on the pipes! The asshats at the Country Club deserve every bit. Especially Steven Antin in the bathroom!
Just realized that Joe Pantoliano is the captain in Bad Boys. Had to text the bestie 😎
Goonies Never Say Die!
How does AR know the shoe size she was looking at are 5’s??
Now I really wanna Baby Ruth.
KHQ’s inventions saved his live. Pinchers of Peril! Next, his slick shoes!
Then my favorite booby trap from One Eye Willie. The Bone Organ. Poor KG all that pressure to do it right and not kill everyone.
Then we have John Matuszak turn into Super Sloth and kicks his brothers asses! And then AR being a terrible mother. “I only dropped you one once. Well maybe twice.”
I always wondered how JC’s mother in the movie felt about him saying that JM was going to live with them now. Like just inviting some adult stranger into your home.
Of course, they save The Goon Docks!
Thanks for reading this episode of Reefer-Reelz-N-Reviews!
Toke on!😶🌫️
-RRR

The Taking of Deborah Logan (2014)
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ .5
I’ll be the first to say: she ate that!!!!
I’ve already declared on this blog that I don’t think I’m a found footage fan, but this film caught my eye because of the plot about dementia. I recently had my last grandparent diagnosed with mixed dementia and some days are very good for her, while others cause violent outbursts, irrational phobias and barely any English to express herself. I’ll be the first to admit that I never liked my grandmother before or after her diagnosis, so I guess the demonic aspects of this film was also fitting.
This film did a good job showing how gradual the changes in dementia occurs, I was honestly very intrigued by the informational aspects at the beginning of the film. The editing in the documentary parks may have been a bit cheesy, but I think that it led to a more successful and frightening impact.
Watch this for:
absolutely stellar special effects
very suspenseful POV shots
the helpful information about dementia
Similar titles:
Talk To Me (2023) (very cool supernatural horror, teens decide to not take a summoning ritual seriously)
The Descent (2005) (similar pathos surrounding grief, creature feature, horror in spelunking, you liked the last twenty minutes of this movie, you will live The Descent)
Hereditary (2019) (more family grief, cult horror)
