Ever since "Double Indemnity," the erotic thriller formula has pretty much stayed the same. Beautiful girl convinces earnest, naive man to do something terrible, then screw him over by having him take the rap. Blown Away redoes the story with teen idols as the leads. The Two Coreys and Nicole Eggert form a triangle that tries to keep you guessing who is manipulating who.One of the many problems with this story is that it is an adult drama in which no one actually acts like an adult, including the middle-aged adolescent father to Nicole's character. Much of the dialog is silly and there are plenty of plot holes and confusing twists. However, looking back as a retro piece of b-movie trash, it does have some entertainment value. I liked the movie more before it dove into the "will-you-help-me-kill-him" cliché, and Corey Feldman does what he does best--playing the sleaziest guy in the show. The early scenes with him as a slimy ski resort worker were more interesting than most of the final third of the movie. Overall, only recommended for fans of unintentional humor and irredeemable trash.

Here we have the two Coreys reunited for this fun flick from 1992, filmed entirely in Ontario, Canada. This film is well known for its nude scenes with Nicole Eggert and Corey Haim. I was very saddened to hear of Corey Haim's death, and I watched this movie as soon as I got the chance, since I hadn't seen it for a very long time. All the stars look great in this picture and although this movie was filmed in 1992 it looks, sounds and feels like it was filmed in the 1980's. The soundtrack, featuring a fantastic and obscure single by John James "She Bought Love" adds to the 80's feel.Though the majority of the funny moments in this film are unintentionally funny, there are a few quips in the movie that actually work. The homicide detective in this movie played by Gary Farmer is absolutely hilarious, especially in the scene in the interrogation room with Corey Haim.The scenes with Corey Feldman and Corey Haim are great, and they are both fun to watch as always. Nicole Eggert is stunning in this movie and she plays the conniving seventeen year old brat convincingly and with ease. There are some movies that just "click" with some people, and this is how I'd describe the feeling the first time I watched this one.Without a doubt, this is one of my favourite movies. Let's not forget that a movie's purpose is to entertain people, and it certainly puts a smile on my face each and every time I watch it. Don't miss the opportunity to see this movie. Get it on DVD while it's still available.

This was just down right, side clenching hilarious. Corey Feldman had me gagging with joy at the end, as he throws his hat away in a "sexual" manner and drawls the line; "Start by taking your clothes off." This film is cliché, badly done, and poorly acted. I'm sure the three main leads did the best with the sex scene driven drivel they had to contend with, but boy, is this a complete stinker. It is also, awfully unintentionally funny. I found none of the characters sensually enticing or believable, and the plot became too overstretched, unrealistic, and ambitious for the film to continue on a passable level.If you want to laugh at the sappy, wannabe porn dialogue, or the eye-rolling,overdone sex scenes, or Corey Feldman just attempting that passes for erotic....go ahead. There is a small part of me that loves it for that horrendous fact.Get drunk, switch this on, and let the mocking commence.

Corey Haim stars as Rich a horny guy who falls for a sexy blonde (Nicole Eggert) who wants to kill her father out of vengeance for the car-bomb murder of her mother, however Haim must make choice to follow his lust or do the right thing. I'm somewhat shocked at exactly this is almost at a 5 out of 10, when this movie is just so damn awful. However it is funny though. Imagine a soap opera with Melrose Place styled antics (Complete with the meat headed guys and slutty girls) made with the two Coreys. Nicole Eggert is indeed a hot little number, sure and her sex scenes to provide some mild interest but let's face it, once you're a certain age a movie must hold more interest to you than just seeing naked women going down on Corey Haim. So with that in mind the story is just so laughably lame, however it is bad enough that it makes you want to puke but stupid enough to make you howl with laughter. It is so bad it could only star the two Coreys. I mean if not for the Demolition High series, this could very well be the funniest movie Corey Haim ever made.* out of 4-(Bad) (Take off a 1/2 star if you can't laugh at a bad movie)
