Excellent film.

Nic Cage is still set for the remake.

HOWEVER, they just finished filming the REAL sequel to TWM. Sean Austin and Chris Lee star. It's a thematic sequel, not a real sequel, and all of the principle people from TWM are involved. That one I REALLY want to see.

The film is about a bunch of Christian RW missionaries (the door-to-door sort) who meet up with modern Pagans.

Hehehehehehehe!

Mel Gibson's "The Passion" will play in the theaters here in the US, but I highly doubt we will see TWM follow-up.

28. Two movies (that I can think of) have this plot
Guy with extraordinary ambition has to choose between career and family. In the older film, the guy chooses family; in the newer one, he chooses career. This choice is absolutely critical in both movies.

79. Ambitious guy must choose: Career or Family
Two films. Name one or both.

The first was made in the 1950s (guy chooses family), the second in the 1980s (guy chooses career). The choice is absolutely critical in both movies.

The first one is a classic 1950s film, a touchstone of the decade that resonated with millions of suburban men, in particular.

The second film outraged a lot of people.

I suppose the general plot could apply to many films, but basically, the plot really is that simple. All I haven't revealed is the setting (which would instantly give it away).

121. I don't know. I saw it so many years ago.
And I guess I was expecting Michael Myers slashing people (not that that would have been high art or anything).

Interestingly, I flirted with the idea of putting this one up earlier. I guess because it's halloween and there's something about those bugs crawling out of the masks that stuck with me.

Don't remember seeing that one, so it may well have the same plot.

I was thinking of "The Package." I love it - great actors (you can't go wrong with gene Hackman and Tommy Lee Jones in the primary roles).
