The Hidden (1987). three years before he ever hit the tube as Twin Peaks' oddball FBI Agent Cooper, Kyle MacLachlan was honing that persona as the oddball FBI Agent Gallager (yes, from Seattle) in this often overlooked but throughly enjoyable scifi-action film. that it never takes itself too seriously, is a good thing too, especially considering the body count, which is considerable. director Jack Sholder's commentary has its crackup moments as well, but never so much as to steal the show from its tidy little cast, and none so outright hilarious as seeing veteran (and perennial) co-star William Boyett taking his turn as the rampaging alien, having lots more fun killing and maiming than he ever did working the desk on all of those old Dragnet episodes.
