Have people forgotten this movie?

Other than us on IMDB, I don't hear people talk about this anymore. I admit, I've never seen it, but from what I heard it sounded great. Anybody notice?

I remember this from when I was a kid...they used to show it on TV all the time...and there was a sequel too but I'd forgotten about it totally for years. Until...duh da duh it was on AMC recently. I'll have to see the whole thing and decide if it's actually good, or if it's just my memory.

"I'm retired. Yeah, I invented dice when i was a kid so, what do you do?"

F/X (1986) - JoBlo's THE BEST MOVIE YOU NEVER SAW! (Bryan Brown & Brian Dennehy)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HkN7ivmjpTA

Welcome back to THE BEST MOVIE YOU NEVER SAW! What would happen if a horror movie special fx artist was framed for murder? That's the question F/X (1986), a movie I absolutely loved as a child of the eighties asks in this week's edition of "The Best Movie You Never Saw". Bryan Brown stars as Rollie Tyler, a VFX guru who does a job for the government, but then finds himself framed. With a ragged cop (the late Brian Dennehy) on his trail, Tyler has no choice but to open up his bag of tricks and go to war with the organization that wants him dead.

While F/X was enough of a hit movie to spawn a sequel (and a short-lived Canadian TV series) nowadays it seems unfairly obscure, so join us as we revisit this eighties cult classic.

Bryan Brown's presence in Anyone But You may spark many viewers's memory of this one
