    Was there a Gene Simmons movie ?

    I just had a nutty flashback

    Gene Simmoms OF KISS as a bad guy who built bad little spider robots

    Did I dream that ?

    nah... Tom Selleck was in that. I think it was called Runaway.

      Just looked it up, --- yea, that's it !

      Wasn't sure if that was real or not.

      I don't even remember Tom Selleck in it

        Oh yeah, RUNAWAY, what a classic. Gene did a handful of movies during the mid 1980's when he was trying to get a Hollywood career going for himself. IMO, his best role was as the main bad guy in WANTED: DEAD OR ALIVE (starring Rutger Hauer). Simmons played a pretty good villian in that film.

              I feel more sorry for Shannon Tweed. She was in a TV series with OJ.

                      Gene also played a preacher in "The New Guy".

                        This sounds kinda weird, but I'm convinced RUNAWAY would've been
                        a lot better of a movie with a better actor for Selleck's kid.

                          Commando was originally written by Jeph Loeb for Gene Simmons to star in.
