Welcome to Adventure month! First up the cult classic The Adventures of Buckaroo Banzai Across the 8th Dimension! Written by Earl Mac Rauch, directed by W. D. Richter, and starring Peter Weller, John Lithgow, Ellen Barkin, Jeff Goldblum, Lewis Smith, Christopher Lloyd, Clancy Brown, Vincent Schiavelli, Dan Hedaya, Robert Ito, Pepe Serna, and Carl Lumbly. It's a weird movie that deserved to be seen by so many more people when it debuted.

Jim discusses one of his favorite cult films from 1984 - "The Adventures Of Buckaroos Bonzai Across The 8th Dimension," starring Peter Weller, John Lithgow, Ellen Barkin, Jeff Goldblum, Christopher Lloyd, Lewis Smith, Rosalind Cash, Robert Ito, Matt Clark, Clancy Brown, Vincent Schiavelli, and Dan Hedaya. Buckaroo, a neurosurgeon-musician-adventurer, has little time to save the Earth from the clutches of Dr. Lizardo and the evil Red Lectroids.
