In this episode of The 80s and 90s Overlooked, the guys review the 1985 film ‘Better Off Dead’ by Savage Steve Holland. This is the first of two films that Holland made with John Cusack. The film follows Lane Meyer (John Cusack), who after his girlfriend dumps him for a ski-jock, decides to kill himself. However, he consistently fails at this as well, until a challenge to a ski-off with the jock gives him some motivation to live.
