“He sees something he wants, he steals it. Something gets in his way, he kills it.”
Jack Sholder’s cult classic The Hidden is a sweet sci-fi fusion of Invasion of the Body Snatchers and every other 80s buddy cop movie ever made, the only thing that sets it apart from the others is emotionless FBI agent Kyle MacLachlan wielding a flamethrower and looking damn fine while doing it. ☕️
Police shoot-outs, alien-to-human body hopping galore, stolen Ferrari’s, high speed car chases—the amount of people that get run over throughout the runtime is mind-boggling! The Hidden is endlessly fun and successfully succeeds at getting even more thrilling with every watch!
Plus I sure do love seeing MacLachlan in a suit driving a Porsche so this is an easy five-star genre masterpiece. Swoooon.
