I was thinking back the other day, and I remember seeing a movie on cable that scared the crap out of me when I was younger.
It was about a young guy who had a lot of robots. He starts dating a really hot chick and her father nearly kills her. She falls down some stairs or something......
She is in a coma, so the robot guy and a friend put a chip in her head (i think). She then goes home and kills her father..
Anyone remember the name of this film?????

The name of the movie is "Deadly Friend" by Wes Craven. Check out my review of it...

Funnily enough, I just got done reading the novel "Friend," which was the basis for the movie.

It was a piece of crap and entirely not scary. The ending was ridiculous.

I was only a couple of years old when I saw this film. I still have an image in my head of the father....
Does the robot come out of the girl's body in the end???? I can't remember that either.

As I remember it wasn't so bad!! Not a classic cut but still good movie.

Warner Brothers really fucked Wes Craven over this one. I also read the book "Friend" and its a beautiful story. Studio interference ruined this flick (the basketball murder and the shitty ending was their damn idea). Too bad cause I see the good movie trying to come out.

I've always been a fan of this movie... I noticed that a lot of people around this board don't like it or Shocker. I really love them both. Am I a fool? PROBABLY SO!!! Maybe it's cause I'm such a Wes Craven fan... who knows? So, shoot me if you must, but I seriously enjoy this movie.

I consider myself a pretty big CRAVEN fan (especially his earlier work) but I haven't seen this one. I find it hard to believe that CRAVEN made a bad movie but I'm guessing that Arrow is right and the studio had a hand in making it as bad as it was. I would like to see it but I'll have to wait for the dvd to come out first. Well thats all for now GOoD JOURNEY my fellow schmoes.

This movie was a semi entertaining film. It has the goonies/Throw Momma From The Train lady. She was such a badass woman. Such a shame she's gone.

Yeah it was a ridiculous movie. Only worth watching for a young KRISTY SWANSON who is gorgeous now!!!!! Oh, and the basketball kill cos it's funny.
P.S - SHOCKER SUCKS ASS. WES CRAVEN has actually made some shite films.
