We are looking at the 1984 film from writer/director Michael Crichton, Runaway. It’s the tale of Jack Ramsay (Tom Selleck) a member of the Runaway unit who takes care of errant robots. He’s a single dad with a son and a robot at home and a new partner on his team, Karen Thompson (Cynthia Rhodes). He’s put on a case which leads him to the dastardly Luther (Gene Simmons).
Carol Borden (The Cultural Gutter (opens in a new tab)) and Josh Stewart (opens in a new tab) join Mike to discuss this quasi-futuristic tale.
