That is my FAVORITE MOVIE!!!!!! Dawson was awesome in it. Damon Killian was the only movie villian I ever felt sorry for. For a little while anyway.

I love that movie. The only reason it was put in the bad section was cause I REALLY Didn't wanna put down either version of Feud .

Me either. Glad to know someone that doesn't think Feud 94 sucks.
