This one of my favorite movies EVER. It was made in 1986 and stars Jerry O'Connell, River Phoenix, Will Wheaton, Corey Feldman and Keifer Sutherland.

It was based on the Stephen King book, The Body and was even Oscar nominated.

Here's a critic's comment about the movie.
QUOTE
Stephen King adaptations can be great. In my opinion the less horror pictures, and The Shining, are the best. Misery, The Shawshank Redemption, The Green Mile and this one. Stand by Me is a great film, you can say it is a drama with some thriller elements.

Four boys hear the location of the dead body of a boy from their small town. The boys go on a trip to look for the body, about 30 miles away. There are some little problems on the way, including another gang with its leader Kiefer Sutherland. One of the boys thinks about his late brother because of the recent events, played by John Cusack. It seems to be a simple story but it is told perfect.

The performances the boys give, one of them is the late River Phoenix, are all extraordinary. I liked the way their friendship was shown. Just a great movie, see this. 9/10.



So anyone else like this movie? mellow.gif

I remember that movie vaguely but is this the movie where these group of kids try to find this missing kid's body after he had been hit by a train.

For some reason this movie reminds me of "My girl" because both this movie and "My Girl" have perfect theme songs.

Edit// I never knew Stephen King wrote that movie. ohmy.gif

AWWW SHIT I SAW IT IN ENGLISH CLASS, it was pretty good. Kind of boring and old fashion but that leech part was nasty as hell.
