Review of The Hidden (1987) by Charles M — 27 Jun 2009
Jack Sholder directed this Sci-Fi Action film which I saw on the big screen in the fall of 1987. Obviously inspired by THE TERMINATOR (1984), this is a very entertaining blend of genres. Michael Nouri was Jennifer Beals' co-star in FLASHDANCE (1983) but has largely faded from the scene (in his audio commentary on the DVD, director Jack Sholder explains that Nouri had some substance abuse problems).
Kyle MacLachlan plays an FBI agent (or is he?) and within three years he would be playing Agent Cooper on TWIN PEAKS. Claudia Christian plays a sexy stripper who becomes the host for the alien entity and gets to blow apart an LAPD cruiser with a shotgun just minutes after screwing a guy to death so she can steal his wheels.
