In 1984, Tom Selleck was riding high off of the success of Magnum P.I. on tv, but here's the thing - he wanted to be a movie star. He'd nailed the audition for Indiana Jones in RAIDERS OF THE LOST ARK, but lost out at the eleventh hour when Magnum P.I. went to series. In 1983/84, he had a slew of movies come out, including two Indiana Jones-styled adventure movies, the underrated HIGH ROAD TO CHINA and the dull LASSITER.

RUNAWAY would be different, in that it was a futuristic sci-fi thriller directed by Michael Crichton and co-starring FLASHDANCE's Cynthia Rhodes and, of all people Gene Simmons. It had a big budget, a score by Jerry Goldsmith, and a lot of hype, but it crashed and burned at the box office. However, it was a childhood favorite of mine, so it's this week's installment of The Best Movie You Never Saw. While certainly not a masterpiece, Michael Crichton's RUNAWAY is a fun slice of eighties cheese and a guaranteed good time for all.
