The story was about a 14 year old girl who was murdered by their neighbor. She tells the story of what happened to her from heaven as how the life of those around her was changed as they journey to find her body.

The movie is really sad for me. If only the parents knew that their neighbor has a track record of being a sex offender who killed young girls, they would probably prevent the death of their daughter. If at that time (around 1970’s) they could track sex offender reports, they would have discovered that their neighbor was the one who killed their daughter.

Anyway, the movie was pure fiction but it reminds parents to stay alert on such matter. Many children are missing and no longer found because of such incidents. That is why I recommend this movie to parents to watch to remind them to tell their children not to trust just anybody for self protection.

But if we talk about movies from the 80’s that I watched, oh well most of my favorites are from that decade. Some of my all-time favorite movies are Star Wars sequels The Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi were both released during the 80’s. Indiana Jones: Raiders of the Lost Ark, India Jones & the Temple of Doom, and India Jones and the Last Crusade came out during the 1981, 1984 and 1989 respectively. I had a big crush with Harrison Ford back then. It was also the time of Ghostbusters, Gremlins and The Karate Kid, all in 1984. The controversial Best Picture of 1986 Oscars, Platoon, became my first war movie favorite so as Robo Cop, Die Hard, Predator, Batman, Lethal Weapon and Who Framed Roger Rabbit. Don’t forget the movies by Eddie Murphy, Beverly Hills Cop 1 & 2 and of course, Coming to America. The 80’s were really full of blockbuster movies and most of them are my favorites.
So, how about you? What is your favorite 1980′s movies?
