love that they set it in the late 80's


There's so much suspense and drama that current tech negates now. Several excellent stories can't be modernized because a major plot problem is fixed by easy access to a phone. I will completely ignore occasional anachronisms in appreciation for the attempt to make this a period setting.

That IS a tasty burger!

I agree with you 1000%. Just like any movie made or set in the 80's its got a great plot, its suspenseful, and great cast of characters and uses none of all the computer generated special effects. Oh plus Christina Hendricks BIG RACK!
