This movie was absolutely foundational to me as a kid. So much so, that some friends and I would often pack up bags and disappear for the day (nobody cared in the 80s 😆).
I've often reflected what happened to those friends in the same vein. Crazy to think it's 40 years old. In other news, I'm old.💀
