    Harry and the Hendersons

    With the passing of Stan Winston this weekend, this movie all of a sudden popped back into my head. As a kid I remember thinking that Harry was totally fucking real, and that there was a whole plethora of "Bigfeet?" living in the woods somewhere. John Lithgow was great if I'm remembering correctly. Is nostalgia tainting my memory of this film, or does it still hold up?

    I still remember the shot of Harry staring in a window and seeing a chicken being put into a pot on a tv show and then seeing the fat lady getting into the hottub. I dunno why, but that stuck with me.

    I loved this movie...I owned it on DVD and watched it everytime it was on TV. Honestly it probably doesn't hold up...but it's still a classic.

      Just watched it a few months back, definitely not as cool as a child but this is one of those movies I will always love no matter how corny!

          All I remember is the crappy tv show. I don't have a single memory of the movie, although I know I watched it.

          Lord Hocken's gaze was that of the Green Horned Mindraper.

                The TV show sucked strong sausage...That definitely deserved being on that list.

                  Movie affected me a lot in my youth. Harry was so expressive. Parts of that movie mad me want to cry and other parts made me want to wipe out the human race.

                        John Lithgow's Dad who owned the sporting goods store pissed me off so much when he altered his lifesize sign of Harry. Also I thought
                        David Suchet as LaFluer was hilarious.
