This guy made / wrote some of my favourite films of the 80's.........

What the hell happened to him? He became a directing recluse

Did he just make enough money & bugger off?

Dear oh dear.......If this is the tripe he is responsible for over the last 15 years then I can do without him resurfacing as a director and stick to my memories of the good films he made.

Maid in Bloody Manhattan Indeed! :mad:
