Drew Barrymore heads up the cast in Firestarter, the suspense-filled film based on the best-selling Stephen King novel. After college sweethearts Andrew (David Keith) and Vicky McGee (Heather Locklear) participate in a mysterious psychic experiment, they have a child, Charlie (Barrymore), who is born with the ability to start fires with her mind. Her unique pyrokinetic talent soon comes to the attention of a covert government agency known as "The Shop." Now operatives from this sinister group (Martin Sheen and George C. Scott) are out to capture nine-year-old Charlie and control her supernatural powers at all costs.

If I can't buy the movie I don't want it. I'm not fooling around. After the play store refused to sell I bought it from Amazon for $9.99. I will continue buy video content from the playstore. But Firestarter will not be one of the titles.

Not the best Stephen King adaptation (Stephen King himself called it the worst adapted from his books), but Firestarter is still a good movie adaptation, even if it has it's flaws.

I've seen this movie multiple times as a kid and still love it to this day! Drew Barrymore gives a stellar performance for being so young. Buying this to watch it with my kids.
