For some strange reason it really is. It's one of those weird movies like Roadhouse that should have sucked but was pretty good.

His performance in Mystic River was incredible. But everybody was incredible in that film.

He's in a lot of stuff lately because he's an idiot. As per him and his wife, they had over 90% of their savings invested with Madoff

I just realized I haven't seen ONE movie this guy has been in! The 6 degrees of Kevin Bacon game is probably his legacy more so than the actual films.

One of the greatest B movies of modern times. I even love Tremors 2 (which I will throw out as one of the greatest direct to video sequels) even though Bacon’s not in it.

I remember watching this waaaaaay back in the day and expecting just a cheesy film but being REALLY surprised at how much better it was than that. It's been a long time since I've seen it though.
