Zlatica One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.
JohnnyMarsan Daryl Cage (Anthony Michael Hall), is an Iowa farm boy who chooses to leave home and live in Los Angeles with his brother. At the airport in Los Angeles, Daryl's duffel bag is accidentally switched with one containing a drug dealer's heroin. Consequently, Daryl's brother and his girlfriend are murdered, but the police mistakenly suspect Daryl of the crime. He becomes the prime suspect of his brother's murder and must clear his own name. He reaches out to the only person he knows in L.A., Dizz (Jenny Wright), who he met earlier on the plane. With Dizz's help he must also rid himself of the heroin by tracking down the dealer and finding his brother's killer.This movie is really hard to find. I don't think it was ever released on DVD. I recently caught it on the Sony Movie Channel and had to save it on my DVR. I hadn't seen it in so long and it really brought me back. There is some great scenery of 80's Los Angeles. This movie made me fall in love with Jenny Wright and Jeff Kober is a great villain as usual. Lookout for an appearances by Stiles from Teen Wolf and Siouxsie and the Banshees!!!
Semira Ariana I didn't think I would like this movie and I actually only watched it because I am a huge Anthony Michael Hall fan but it did end up surprising me with how into it I became.The plot line is very generic.. or would be since a lot more movies have been made like it since then but the acting and directing of the movie is very good and still pulls you into it.Anthony Michael Halls acting is once again flawless and natural, it just shows how great his range of abilities is as an actor. The female lead annoyed me a bit but that's just my opinion.. i found her voice annoying.Overall a great movie with great acting. 7/10 just because I didn't like the gore in it, it's very minimum but if your queasy be guarded.
bkoganbing Anthony Michael Hall is way Out of Bounds on a trip to Los Angeles. Fresh off the farm from Iowa, he picks up Jeff Kober's travel bag by mistake. Kober gets Hall's change of wardrobe and Hall gets over a million dollars in heroin. I don't think Jeff Kober has ever played a good guy in any of the films or television shows I've ever seen him in. He's succeeded Lyle Bettger in playing a lovely variety psychotics and in this case he's one psychotic drug dealer looking for his stash.Kober murders Hall's brother and his wife who Hall was staying with when he learns where he's staying and to top it all off, LAPD detective Glynn Turman is thinking Hall did the deed. Some trigger happy cops nearly kill Hall and he's off and running looking for the only other person he knows in Los Angeles, a waitress played by Jenny Wright who he met on the plane out from Iowa.Farm boy Hall is in one hostile environment as he tries desperately to survive and clear himself.Anthony Michael Hall was still in his brat pack period when he did Out of Bounds. He portrays the resourceful, but vulnerable Iowa kid very well. But the acting honors of this film go to Jeff Kober. A really unsung and underrated performer, Kober always delivers the goods when he's a bad guy. In fact one day I'd like to see try doing comedy for a change.Till then Kober will keep you on the edge of your seat when you watch him in Out of Bounds.
coverme6 A pretty silly film, "Out of Bounds" begins as a teeny-bopperstyle of movie that would suit John Hughes' tastes, and endslike how a Charles Bronson vigilante film would be. AnthonyMichael Hall plays Darryl Cage, an Iowa teen who travels to L.A.to visit his brother, only to have his duffel bag accidentallyswitched with a bag belonging to a dope runner. What follows isa frantic yet unbelievable streets of the city of angels. Hallis a likeable actor (in my book, he's a lot cooler than LeoDiCaprio!), but I wasn't used to seeing him in a gritty actionfilm like this. He's too much of a pretty boy to look ind
