The Golden Child
The podcast is good to keep the yang up!
After the massive success of Beverly Hills Cop, Eddie Murphy had the clout to make just about any movie he wanted, and the result was supernatural detective adventure The Golden Child. A script originally intended for Mad Max Mel Gibson, Murphy changes the mood by being a wisecracking social worker drawn into a mystical quest to rescue a kidnapped child believed to be a holy figure, while sinister cult leader Charles Dance works to bring darkness into the world. From ancient daggers to the infamous ābutt pieā scene, this 1986 fantasy-comedy is a strange blend of action, laughs, and New Age weirdness.Ā Does The Golden Child still sparkle, or is it a relic of Murphyās ā80s superstardom? Join Arnie, Stuart, and Brock on this bonus podcast to find out!
