    The family in Blast from the Past (1999) went into the vault for 35 years, from 1962 to 1997 If the movie came out today Brendan Fraser's character would be dressed like his character in Encino Man (1991)

    Weird day for movie watching. Also caught Race with the Devil (1975). Meh! Cash Out was super awful. Blast From The Past was cute and fun. Messiah of Evil was such a vibe, what wild looking film. Kinda boring tbh but it has such strong style. Arcadian was flawed but v memorable.
