The final film in the KANE MUTINY summer series finds an 8 year old Drew Barrymore, only two years after her breakout role as the adorable Gertie in E.T., now playing Charlie McGhee, a kid with awesome, unwieldy superpowers but without the maturity to control them in this fast-paced adaptation of the Stephen King novel. The bad guys want to use her, her father wants to protect her, and all Charlie wants is for her ever-growing, destructive abilities to “back off… Just BACK OFF!” A direct influence on Stranger Things and the radder alternative puberty allegory to Inside Out 2, Firestarter is a summer movie blast.
