Storyline

Edit

This was a fantastic made for tv movie that is hard to find. The early career of Leaf Phoenix was pockmarked throughout the 80s with genre heavy cult kid 80s adventure movies like Space Camp and Russkies. What I like to call the 80s kids on bikes subgenre that shows like Stranger Things are capitalizing on. Movies like goonies, the Explorers, frog dreaming and ET. This movie is a great murder mystery, filled w that 80s adventure set on a exotic Summer vacation island. This movie is Heavy with what a phrase that i like to call Retro-Patina. Filled with a great supporting cast, funny humor and well directed. Definitely worth a watch if retro stuff is your jam.
