Summer Special #20 - Better Off Dead (1985) [Non-Cannon ~ Episode 68]



Bit of a curveball this week! We go back a little further for John Cusack's breakout comedy, Better Off Dead. Directed by "Savage" Steve Holland, this dark comedy is a cult classic in all the best ways. It's weird, unpredictable, and with an odd sense of humor.

But it isn't perfect, either. We go into exactly why it isn't in the episode above. This might not be traditional "summer fare" but it is a summer movie in all the ways that count. Even if it has problems it is still an easy recommend for those who haven't seen it.

Randy's Score: 3/5
JD's Score: 3/5
