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

I can't believe the "Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon" game came out in '94?! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Six_Degre ... evin_Bacon

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.
