Morgan Stewart's Coming Home is a nice little teen comedy from the 80s starring the always likeable Jon Cryer. This was one of those movies that aired almost daily on HBO during the late 80s. It was groundbreaking in its day for taking a jab at the dysfunctional family dynamics of wealthy socialites/politicians. Lynn Redgrave is great as Morgan's cold as ice mother Nancy, but this really is Jon Cryer's show. It also features 80s go-to asshole, Paul Gleason as the sleazy shyster Jay. Morgan is a true horror film geek, almost to the extreme as Chainsaw in Summer School. An interesting love story develops between Morgan and a fellow horror geek, who of course is oblivious to his family's wealth and political standing. Which leads to a silly romp of an ending complete with an army jeep crashing into a fountain. You gotta love the 80s.
