In which the Mister and Monsters join me in reviewing THROW MOMMA FROM THE TRAIN (1987), from writer Stu Silver and director Danny DeVito. In this dark comedy, a writing teacher, Larry (Billy Crystal) unwittingly becomes entangled in a murder plot when one of his students, Owen (Danny DeVito) mistakes his advice for an agreement to kill for each other. The film clocks in at 1 h and 28 m, is rated PG-13 and we watched on the TCM app but the film can be found streaming on MGM+, PlutoTV and Tubi but also to buy/rent on Prime Video. Please note there are SPOILERS in this review.
