Aging movie producer Lawrence Woolsey (John Goodman) screens his latest schlock-licious B-movie -- filled with atomic blasts and human mutation -- and gets the attention of teen horror-flick buff Gene Loomis (Simon Fenton), all while the Cuban Missile Crisis intensifies. Joe Dante directs this hilarious, touching and nostalgic tale based in Key West, Fla., in 1962. Cathy Moriarty and Kellie Martin co-star.
