5.0 out of 5 stars there is a god, and he is good, April 23, 2004

By	a very happy girl - See all my reviews

For years, I have been trying to figure out the name of the creepy movie i saw when i was 9, where a boy lost his hair, put something on his head that made it grow, it grew too fast, blah blah kidnapping, magic paintbrushes, etc. etc. Now I know, and it feels good...like a warm snuggly blanket.
There should be a society called The Peanut Butter Solution Viewers Anonymous... for all the innocents who saw this movie in their youth, only to be haunted by it and be told by their friends and loved ones that they are liars and this movie doesn't exist (but Mommy, it is real).
To add insult to injury, I recently found the trailer online and (certain that victory was mine) played it for my so-called friends (who dared to call me a liar...i hope they burn). ONLY to find that the trailer is the most ridiculously sugary bit 'o film accompanied by an organ grinder's stupid muzak (and not the creepy film experience we all know it to be). So now I'm not a liar... I'm just a huge silly chicken. That's okay, though, I'm still in my happy place. B/c this movie is real.

5.0 out of 5 stars Crazy, August 1, 2006

By	Whitko (Lanc Lanc, PA) - See all my reviews

I can't believe that almost everyone who has seen this movie thought they were either crazy or they had fabricated it in a dream. I was of the second camp. Until I mentioned it one day to my best friend and he remembered it as well. That made me feel better. It's strange how this movie seemed to just disappear off the face of the earth. If it wasn't for the internet, most of us would still be wondering if we had made this up. The one thing I don't understand about the other reviews is why people were so scared of this. I don't remember it being scary at all. I must have been around 8 when I saw it. My sister was 5 and I don't remember her being scared either. So there was no scaring, or scarring, due to this movie. People who say otherwise really are crazy and should be locked up in a mental institution playing checkers with a big man named Hector who thinks he is a petite female version of Abraham Lincoln. There, I said it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Found at last!!!, April 11, 2002

By	"niketiger17" (Indianapolis, IN) - See all my reviews

In 1987 when i was 5 years old, i saw this movie for the first and only time with my older sister who was 7. after we saw the movie, we had dreams about it for years. after we got older and stopped having the dreams, the movie was a vague memory. i just remembered very little while my sister remembered much more. but the one thing that we both couldnt remember was the title. we tried to explain our memories to others to see if they knew, but everyone thought we were crazy. today, april 10th 2002, i decided to go with my memories and try and find the title on the internet. after about 30 minutes of searching, i finally found the title, "The Peanut Butter Solution." i was so thrilled! i called my sister up and told her the great news. what i told her gave her goosebumps and she almost cried from relief. my sister is currently ordering the movie from amazon so we can continue to enjoy the movie for years to come. and maybe even stir up those old dreams again.
