Critters (1986)

BONUS: For Brian

A memorial piece for Brian Muir, who passed away in 2010, with friends and collaborators sharing anecdotes and thoughts about their time with the "Critters" screenwriter. It's quite a candid featurette, examining Muir's loss of the directing gig to a coin toss with Herek, and his removal from the franchise once sequels were produced. There's talk of his industry struggles and love of writing, also sharing details from his multiple bouts with cancer. To celebrate his life, a memorial screening of "Critters" was held, with attendees paying their last respects to the man who created it all.
