This week on The Blind Rage Podcast, Tony sits down with me to watch another under-seen and under-appreciated ‘80s gem.

FAR FROM HOME stars a teenage Drew Barrymore on a road trip with her father (played by Matt Frewer). Their car runs out of gas in the middle of Nowheresville, Nevada and they’re forced to take up temporary residence in a trailer park, where an unseen killer lurks.

Perhaps the script leaves much to be desired. Maybe the story is a little too predictable. But any/all plot issues are easily forgivable due to the stellar cast, which includes Susan Tyrell, Richard Masur, Dick Miller, Anthony Rapp, Andras Jones, and a young Jennifer Tilly, among others.
