Unfortunately, neither one of them was able to make the transition from being child stars to adult actors.

They co-starred in films like The Lost Boys and License to Drive. Corey Haim appeared in movies like Murphy’s Romance and Lucas while Corey Feldman did The Goonies and Stand By Me. With their subsequent notoriety, it’s easy to forget that they were two of the busiest and most critically acclaimed child actors of the 80s. In this case, the surprise twist was actually a good one, the faded stars were the Two Coreys, and the up-and-coming starlet was Nicole Eggert.īefore they become direct-to-video mainstays in the 90s, both Corey Haim and Corey Feldman had a good, if brief, run as legitimate film stars. Add a dimly lit sex scene or two and a surprise twist at the end. Toss in an up-and-coming starlet who is willing to do nudity. In many ways, Blown Away is typical of the neo-noirs that used to dominate late night Cinemax in the 90s. At first, Rich is hesitant but when Megan turns up bruised and claiming that her father beat her up, Rich reconsiders Megan’s proposition. Megan eventually tells Rich that she believes that Cy was responsible for the death of her mother and that she thinks they should kill Cy and, after Megan has gotten her inheritance, run off together. With Wes’s encouragement, Rich continues the affair, even after Cy demands that Rich never see his daughter again. It’s only in the morning that Rich discovers that Megan is the daughter of his boss, Cy (Jean LeClerc). Nicole greets him in her underwear and soon, the two of them are having softcore, late night Cinemax-style sex. Despite the fact that he’s already dating Darla (Kathleen Robertson), Rich goes to Nicole’s party. When Rich rescues the wealthy Megan (Nicole Eggert) from being trampled by a horse, she invites him to attend her 17th birthday party.
They play most of them well….Rich Gardner (Corey Haim) and his brother, Wes (Corey Feldman) both work at a ski resort in Canada.
The ending surprised me a bit….and I have no problem with Haim and Eggert’s ‘love/sex’ scenes. The unrated version is the only one to get, should be available secondhand or thru an auction somewhere.
#Blown away 1993 movie#
Just remember that you have to cut this movie a little slack, it’s not an academy award winner,(in fact, I feel it’s highly underrated and hard to find) and despite the action/adventure/thriller heading it may be listed under, there’s some other aspects to it as well. Although the plot is a little shaky in places and doesn’t run as smoothly as it could, it’s a great way to spend an afternoon or evening. The scenery and backdrops are breathtaking and well-filmed. Regardless of the plot lines, what their characters are like, etc, I enjoy the interaction, craziness, and mild violence that always seems to follow the two of them from movie to movie. As a fan of the Coreys, this is just one more example of the karma they share. If you do choose to look it up, don’t confuse it with another movie of the same title with some older and possibly more well known leads. This is one movie I haven’t forgotten, even though it’s been a few years since I last watched it. Rated R for strong sexuality and violence, and for language Is Rich so in love with Megan that he’ll watch her kill her own father? Megan’s mother has recently died in a car accident, which she blames on her father. Megan, the seventeen year old daughter of a strict but wealthy businessman, falls for Rich who works at his ski resort. 1h 32m | Action, Drama, Romance | 1 April 1993 (USA)
