    Great movie. I knew an extra who was in it for like two seconds lol. The ONLY thing I called bullsh*t on was that ''good samaritan" scene. A LADY driver picks up a STRANGER on the street, and at NIGHT no less? I know you're supposed to suspend disbelief in movies, but that was a bit much lol.

    I lived in Cedar Rapids from 1987-1993 (age 9 to 15). I recently went back about three weeks ago for the first time in 30 years to visit the homes that my Mom and I lived in during that time period. It's incredible how much has changed, but it was a wonderful time to reconnect to such a monumental part of my childhood. But the shell that is now Westdale Mall; yeah that one hurt lol Funny how you mentioned listening to old 80's tunes while you were there. I did the exact same thing lmao. Great video :)

    Hi. 14:00 - You got the hospital (interior) wrong. ALL the interiors were built in a closed Chicago Public School in either Woodlawn or Pullman - utilized for various other office scenes. I was 19 then, and a extra, and I'm looking all over for the exact location, can't find it. It was used as a School again 2 years later for this Sidney Poiter TV film "To Sir With Love II". Maybe some other 90s films too. Been Curious what they did with the school. Don't live in Chicago anymore, but totally miss 10% of it.
