Film.com's FREE movie of the week is "Love the Hard Way." Oscar-winner Adrien Brody and Charlotte Ayanna star in this drama about a thief who falls for a curious, beautiful young woman. As their intimacy grows, a slick cop (Pam Greer) is closing in.
People are strange in murder-capital Santa Clara, California. New kid in town Sam (Corey Haim) meets the Frog Brothers at a comic-book store, and his brother Michael (Jason Patric) is lured by vampire vixen Star (Jami Gertz) into drinking blood. Kiefer Sutherland as the Doors-loving undead David elevates the hot fangfest of 1987 into an all-time horror-comedy classic. After all, what?s scarier than the Rob Lowe poster on Haim?s closet? Corey Feldman rocking a bandanna with a mullet.
