One of the looniest pictures to come along in some time, Stir Crazy teams two of the most brilliant and zany comic performers of all time: Richard Pryor and Gene Wilder. Skip (Wilder) and Harry (Pryor) have both been fired from their jobs, so they take off in their van for California to seek fame and fortune, but somewhere along the way the van conks out and they're broke and...well, they have to eat, right? So they land a gig as singing and dancing woodpeckers to promote a bank opening. When two bank robbers steal their costumes and stick up the bank, guess who gets the blame? Skip and Harry are carted off to the state penitentiary for 125 years. They try to keep their sanity and their lives amidst a sadistic warden, a hulking mass-murderer and an inter-prison rodeo - all with great hilarity.
These collected tales - some taller than others - offer revealing glimpses into how and why West Texans are different. Rugged enough to make the harshest of environments their own, this species thrives in hundred-degree-plus heat and near-zero humidity. Folks like the crop duster who nearly sets his plane down in the bed of a pickup, the 'boll weevil' whose naivete is tested in the oil patch, and Frank the 'Goofy Roofer', who enters a bullfight with nothing more than a denim jacket and a bottle of beer, are far from rare. All these yarns contain a grain of truth, and some of them actually happened just as related. Most of them have a humorous bent; some are reasonably serious; a few are totally outrageous. But all of them illustrate the character of this distinctive region of the Lone Star State. Whether they concern ranchers, farmers, or oilfield hands; weather, work, or play, all reflect the essential nature of West Texans. Weaver's lively anecdotes prove several truths about Texas west of the hundredth meridian: you may learn how not to haul hogs, ride in rodeos, conduct bullfights, or drill oil wells - and you may well meet petroleum promoters, coon hunters, chuck-wagon cooks, cotton farmers, and even college professors - but you won't encounter an uninteresting character where things get hotter than Pecos.
Thriller starring Tommy Lee Jones and Charlize Theron. After being informed that his son, Mike (Jonathan Tucker), has gone missing after his return from a tour of duty in Iraq, Mike's father Hank (Jones) travels to his son's military base to see if he can make any sense of his disappearance. Hank soon becomes frustrated by the lack of interest shown in the case by the military and the police, and with the help of Detective Emily Sanders (Theron), takes matters into his own hands. The pair begin to piece together the events that led to Mike's disappearance, making some interesting discoveries in the process.
Arrogant and self-assured, Nathan is the star of the high school basketball team and hails from the wealthiest family in town. Quiet, brooding and driven, Lucas is a loner, the only child of a single, working mom. He's always kept his distance from Nathan. But their lives collide when a twist of fate puts Lucas on Nathan's team. The half-brothers compete not only for control of the court, but also for the heart of Nathan's girlfriend.
Box set containing all four 'Critters' titles. In 'Critters' (1986), eight hungry aliens have escaped from a prison planet and land near a small town in Kansas. They take over the Brown household, eat the goldfish and then go after the human occupants. Outer space bounty hunters arrive on Earth to subdue the critters. 'Critters 2' (1988) is set two years after the first set of 'critters' wrought havoc in a small Kansas town. Now another batch are hatching. In 'Critters 3' (1991), the flesh-eating critters are back, moving up in the world by way of the elevator shaft in an apartment building. As usual they're hungry and the tenants are on the menu. Finally, in 'Critters 4' (1991), the critters have almost all been cleared off the planet Earth. Only two critter eggs remain and these have been ordered to be blasted off into space by the Intergalactic Council. But the pod carrying them is unwittingly picked up by a space salvage crew.
