Description

When local rich kid Hubie Pyatt (Barry Tubb) steals and wrecks Binx Davy's beloved motor scooter, Binx's older sister Billie Jean (Helen Slater) demands the $608 it costs to fix it. Binx shoots Mr. Pyatt (Richard Bradford) by accident and he and Billie Jean flee town, accompanied by Billie Jean's girlfriends Ophelia (Martha Gehman) and Putter (Yeardley Smith). They become fugitives and when they pick up a very willing hostage, Lloyd (Keith Gordon), they become criminals. Billie Jean becomes a legend in her own time, a symbol of freedom to teenagers everywhere.

    I love this movie is so good and awesome to see my home town Corpus Christi Texas!! Crazy seeing the old sunrise mall back when it was open. I miss those days I still live in corpus and a lot has changed. Now I’m 21 yrs old and now there building a new harbor bridge. Can’t wait to see in done somewhere in 2020 😊😊👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

    This film is from a time where kids were still allowed to be kids. Going to the mall, the beach, and drive ins like Sonic all by themselves! It's a great way to remember how times were and will never be the same again. A growing up story where you stand for what you believe and you see results! It can be cheesy, but the fundamentals are there with a great story and soundtrack. The way life used to be with C101 and Matt the Cat on Padre Island in the good ole days.

  • Far out!

    This is a movie about teenage anger, rage and justice. This movie is honestly one of the best movies ever made and it was lost for about 20 years. Just watch it. where else are you going to see Super Girl, Christian Slater and Lisa Simpson stand up to The Man?

    This is a great movie, I was excited to watch but can't enjoy it because all it does is freeze. Point less to rent. I would like a refund :(
