Weird Science
The Frankenstein legend takes an uproarious twist in this outrageous special effects-laden comedy from the writer-director of "Sixteen Candles" and "The Breakfast Club."
Critically acclaimed filmmaker John Hughes is at it again, giving nerdy computer whiz, Ilan Mitchell-Smith and best friend, Anthony Michael Hall, power to create the "perfect woman" (the tantalizing Kelly LeBrock).
Like a computer generated fairy godmother, the duo's out-of-this-world creation guides the pair through the pleasures and pitfalls of adolescence.
There are some pretty crass moments (Why the stereotype of the foreign-exchange student from Asia?), but Ringwald's steady appeal smoothes over the rough spots.
With a rock beat supplied by many music superstars including Oingo Boingo, this far-out sci-fi fable brings everyone's favorite teen fantasies to life through the miracle of "Weird Science."
Starring; Anthony Michael Hall.
