Summer Of 84 (6/10)

Full of spoilers! A few days ago I watched this movie with B&H called Summer of 84. In it these four friends investigate a series of kidnappings nearby and one of them, Davey, begins to think that a policeman neighbor named Wayne Mackey is the guy doing it. Davey's dad is a photojournalist and one of the most aggravating parts of this movie. Him and flashlights. I have no idea how many times I said Turn off your day flashlights!” Obviously, this takes place in 1984 so there are going to be comparisons to Stranger Things and have references to shit that was going on during that time. Davey is all about conspiracy theories and is rather plain. His character is just a kid who is only as interesting as who he is around. Woody is the big kid that has a mother that is working herself to death. Tommy is the punk kid whose parents aren't worth shit. And finally there is Curtis who wears glasses. There wasn't too much different really about any o these kids other than how they were dressed. As someone who grew up in the 80's I never in my life met kids like these. They have no real chemistry because they don't seem like they would really hang out with each other. When you are with your friends you are not always talking shit about each other and your mothers. I was also not as horned up as these guys.


One day Davey sees this kid that turns up missing in the cops house and gets all kinds of suspicious. His friends, who along with a bunch of other kids play this hunting one another game, decide to help him investigate. Davey watches how every single thing that this cop does is sketchy. Like...everything! Even when he takes the trash out he peeps over his shoulder to make sure he is not being watched. He is the sloppiest kidnapper/killer too because he is always buying gardening shit and dirt. Davey and his friends put a walkie-talkie on the cops window to listen to him. Davey finds a bloody shirt in the cops house and they show it to his father who immediately becomes Mr Punk Bitch and makes the boys apologize to the neighbor and grounds him. The cop says the boy was his nephew and is like “Oh, no harm no foul.” By the way, I tried to think that someone else could be the killer like the boys dad or even this girl that shows up and will be leaving town soon. It would have been cool to have other suspects but all signs pointed to the cop.


The girl that I speak of is Nikki. She is very much 80's hot even down to looking too old for her age. It is nuts, but people in their teens in the 80's looked 30 years old. Davey has a crush on her and when they talk they act like they are the best of friends even though she lives across the street from him (because he looks in her window nightly) and she has not been over in years. Sure. Gonna miss you (your bawdy) so much! Davey sneaks back into the cops house with Nikki and the fat kid and they film it using Davey's dads camera. They find every manner of evidence including a corpse in a tub and one kid that is still alive. The other boys think the cop is innocent because he opened a nice little garden thing nearby and everyone thinks he is awesome because he catches another guy saying he is the real killer. The kids show the video to the police who begin to search for the cop Mackey.


Now...knowing that a crazed killer is on the loose and lives next to the kids who discovered his nefarious ways, you would think that this entire street would be on lockdown and the kids would be under some form of police protection. Or maybe stay at someone else's house. Or at the very least station a cop car outside. Nah! Davey and the fat kid get kidnapped by the cop who was hiding in the goddamn attic! He takes them IN A COP CAR to this wooded area to hunt them down. I guess? Davey leaves the big kid alone and the cop finds him and slits his throat. Murder! Murder most foul! He finds Davey and slices his foot but lets him know he ruined everything and is not going to kill him now but wants him looking over his shoulder for the rest of his life wondering if this will be the day he comes back. Pffft. Bring it, bitch!


It seems like everything goes back to normal. One kid is dead, the punk kid is still home, the one with glasses...still has glasses, and Nikki moves away. The cops house is put up for sale but fuck even stepping foot into it. “Over here we have the secret basement room with a bathtub! Why is there a secret basement room with a bathtub next to the creepy dark room? Never mind that. Look at these drapes!” This could have been cooler if it was shorter, more realistic dialogue, and some more suspects. You can't have the killer being so damned spooky all the time and have me pretend to be surprised when he is discovered. Hell, at least they could have had this drag out longer and there been multiple times when he was confronted with evidence showing he is the killer and having it shot down. Oh, and I gotta point out that Davey's mom was corpsing the entire movie. She was the blankest of slates. H. called her a Stepford Wife. She was really weird in her non reaction to everything. She did smile when she was going to that parade though!
