Rewatching Better Off Dead, I don't remember it, didn't see it in theaters for sure, but prob when it came out in VHS. Gonna be looking at it for how it stands up & thinking about how watching this movie might have affected 12 yo me.

Saw it probably 50 times on cable in the late 80s.

This better be his gf in the walls of pictures, or else woah, creepy stalker behavior which was valued as romantic in the 80s
