a5c7b9f00b This is a thriller about a child who has the amazing ability of pyrokinesis, and her father, who also has the ability make people do what he wants. A secret government agency known as "The Shop" led by Captain Hollister and John Rainbird plot to kidnap the duo for testing their abilities. Can this power and the love of her father stop this sinister agency before all hell breaks loose? Andy McGee met his future wife Vicky while they were earning money by participating in an experiment in which they were given a dose of a chemical called LOT-6, while they were in college. Andy and Vicky went on to get married and they now have a nine-year-old daughter named Charlene "Charlie" McGee, who has the ability to start fires at will (pyrokinesis) as a result of the experiment that Andy and Vicky participated in. The experiment also gave Andy the ability to make people do what he wants. A secret government department known as "The Shop" did the experiment, and now The Shop, run by Doctor Joseph Wanless, has been pursuing Andy and Charlie, even killing Vicky in order to get her out of the way. Wanless and his organization want to study Andy and Charlie, then kill them, and The Shop has sent a sniper named John Rainbird to find Andy and Charlie. What Wanless and his group underestimate is what Andy and Charlie are willing to do to protect each other. Too many reviews on IMDb complain about this title not being scary. One talks about the first half being scary, but the second not. It's not supposed to be scary, horror scary at all, but is more in line with 1984 and the idea of government agencies overreaching. It is way more SciFi than horror with. Conspiracy theory thrown in for good nature. My biggest problem is George C. Scott as the antagonist who is supposed to be Native American. This is not a great film, nor is it a bad film. Watch and decide. It is A Stephen King film involving the Shop. It is therefore, connected to Golden Years and other stories. Keep in mind that it is not IT and it is not one of his multiple ghost stories. This is a psychological SciFi flick that borders on dystopian. This film is an adaptation of a novel by Stephen King, where a young girl with pirokinesis and his father, with powers of mental manipulation, are seeking to escape government agents that want to kill them. Directed by Mark L. Lester, has David Keith and Drew Barrymore in the lead roles.<br/><br/>This film is neither good nor bad. It is exactly in the middle. Drue Barrymore still manages to enchant us, as it was still far from the bad roads that ran through adolescence, years later. The story is also very interesting and covers a topic that always knew intrigue people. However, it's not, by far, the best film adaptation of a King book: the actors are sometimes too theatrical, especially Keith, every time it uses its powers; the script also has some obvious flaws and lack of logic. If the father imagined, as the film suggests, the danger in which he lived with his family, why he didn't use his powers to flee abroad earlier? And what is the purpose of that rampant police harassment against a man able to control minds and a girl able to set fire to everything?<br/><br/>Not being very good, this film is still able to perform well with its role: entertain the public. Therefore, it is still interesting to see, although it is not surprising. It's a ridiculous story to be sure, filled with holes and not remotely plausible, but director Mark L. Lester knows enough to keep the speed up, and the dumb stuff is flattened by action. It's the kind of movie in which the audience waits happily for the little heroine to be cornered by villains, all to cheer at the inevitable roast. Lester, at least, is stylish enough to get away with it. [12 May 1984, p.C1] Nine-year-old Charlene "Charlie" McGee (<a href="/name/nm0000106/">Drew Barrymore</a>) has the ability to start fires with her mind thanks to an experiment in which her parents were given a chemical called LOT-6 when they were in college. The experiments were conducted by a secret governmental organization known as the "Shop", and the Shop is super interested in studying Charlie's ability for use as a military weapon. When they go so far as to kill Charlie's mother to get at Charlie, her father Andy (<a href="/name/nm0001418/">David Keith</a>), who has the ability to influence minds, takes Charlie on the run. Not to be deterred, the Shop sends "exterminator" John Rainbird (<a href="/name/nm0001715/">George C. Scott</a>) to apprehend and bring them in, at any cost. Firestarter (1980) was written by American horror novelist Stephen King. The novel was adapted for the movie by Canadian-born screenwriter Stanley Mann. Firestarter was followed by a made-for-TV sequel, <a href="/title/tt0297120/">Firestarter 2: Rekindled (2002)</a> (2002). In the novel, Dr. Wanless (<a href="/name/nm0428086/">Freddie Jones</a>) describes Lot Six as "a synthetic copy of a pituitary extract, a powerful painkiller-hallucinogen that we did not understand then and that we don't understand now." One thing they do know, he says, is that "Lot Six somehow changed the physical composition of the pituitary glands of those who participated in the experiment" and that "Lot Six was responsible in some way for the occasional flashes of psi ability that nearly all human beings demonstrate from time to time." According to the novel, the Shop is really the Department of Scientific Intelligence. They claim to be involved in domestic scientific projects related to national security, e.g., electromagnetic energy and fusion power, but they're also conducting secret experiments on people with certain parapsychological abilities that might be useful as weapons. Andy forces Captain Hollister (<a href="/name/nm0000640/">Martin Sheen</a>) to get a message to Charlie, telling her to meet him in the stables at 8 PM. Charlie shares this good news with her friend John. When Andy and Charlie meet in the stables, John is already there, hiding in the loft. Charlie is glad when she finds that John is there, but Andy has been warned by Hollister that it was John who shot them and who has been tricking Charlie to cooperate. Charlie threatens to burn down the stables, but John warns that she'll kill the horses, so she backs off. Charlie begins to climb up to the loft but Andy pulls her down. He then forces John to jump, but John shoots Andy in the shoulder as he lands. He then turns the gun on Charlie, but she burns bullet, gun, and John. With his dying breath, Andy tells Charlie to burn down the Shop so that they can't do anything like this again. As the barn begins to flame, Charlie frees the horses and heads outside where she sends fireball after fireball, burning everything cars, helicopters, and buildings. Shop agents try shooting her, but Charlie burns the bullets before they even reach her. When the entire compound is on fire, Charlie walks away, saying, "For you, Daddy." In the final scene, Charlie arrives at the Manders' farm. Norma (<a href="/name/nm0001221/">Louise Fletcher</a>) takes Charlie into her arms and Irv (<a href="/name/nm0138770/">Art Carney</a>) is shown accompanying Charlie into the New York Times building, presumably to go public with her story. No. This is one movie in which Stephen King does not have a cameo.
