Something hideous is changing law-abiding citizens into monstrous, hyperviolent psychopaths. Now, only Kyle MacLachlan (Dune, Twin Peaks) and Michael Nouri (Flashdance) can halt the terrifying rampage of The Hidden! A series of bizarre, inexplicable robberies and murders have L.A. police detective Tom Beck (Nouri) totally baffled. And it doesn’t help when mysterious FBI agent Lloyd Gallagher (MacLachlan) tells him that a demonic extraterrestrial creature is invading the bodies of innocent victims – and transforming them into inhuman killers with an unearthly fondness for heavy-metal music, red Ferraris and unspeakable violence! It’s a spine-chilling, high-velocity sci-fi thriller from the makers of A Nightmare on Elm Street.

Essentially an action-oriented adaption/update of THE BRAIN FROM PLANET AROUS. Top notch sci-fi, horror & action all in one.

Reviewed in the United States on October 21, 2017

Verified Purchase

BOTTOM LINE: One of the best genre efforts to come out of latter half of that crazy decade of excess, the 1980's. Terrific acting across the broad, superb stunts & practical F/X, and a fast-driving, streamlined plot that keeps things racing right up until the explosive finale. Minimal but nicely remastered upgrade to Blu-ray. Very enjoyable, on so many levels, and highly rewatchable. 5 STARS

THE STORY: L.A. Cop finds his normal world instantly turned upside down when an odd FBI agent shows up and enlists his help in tracking down seemingly average citizens who just go bonkers for no apparent reason, turning into homicidal manics - with a taste for heavy metal & fast Ferrari's. Things progressively go from bad to worse, taking a turn for the bizarre when… well, you’ll just have to tune in and find out for yourself!

THOUGHTS: A favorite 80’s film that hits all the right notes. Hard to believe, but THE HIDDEN is basically a remake of the schlocky old John Agar flick, THE BRAIN FROM PLANET AROUS. This update is a stellar example of how to do a remake and do it right. It's also a near-perfect excellent example of how to seamlessly blend multiple genres. For THE HIDDEN is: a crackerjack sci-fi film, a grisly horror flick, an over-the-top action fest and, perhaps most surprisingly of all, a touching drama about love, trust, honor and just what it means to really be human. Kyle MacLachlan is amazing as the slightly out of phase FBI agent who’s hot on the trail of a remorseless, bloodthirsty maniac. Michael Nouri is totally believable as a world-weary L.A. cop who knows his job, but is clueless as to how what’s happening IS happening. The second string players are all excellent. Music score is restrained and still impactful. Impressive stunt work throughout. And overseeing it all, director Jack Shoulder keeps things tightly knit, maintaining a firm grasp on the course of the film, which, in lesser hands, could have become a flashy, heartless, brainless explosion & noise fest. He keeps us sprinting along breathlessly from one wild setpiece to another, all without losing sight of (nor downplaying) the smaller, quieter moments which help give the picture its focus and soul.

THE BLU-RAY: Essentially the same release as the old NewLine DVD, only with much-improved sound & picture. Extras are the same stuff, merely ported over, including an excellent full-length audio commentary with the director in which he shares a wealth of insightful and enlightening details behind the making of the film. And even though there’s really nothing new, if you’re a fan of this film (and how could you NOT be?!?), it’s still a no-brainer to double dip if you already own the DVD. If you’ve got a Blu-ray player and have somehow never managed to catch this movie before, then by all means BUY IT! And prepare yourself for an exhausting breakneck thrill ride that’ll leave you breathless… and thoroughly entertained - from the opening credits thru to the final fade-out. In the end, it’s easy to see THE HIDDEN is absolutely one of the best of its kind ever made. Highly, highly recommended.

My Favorite 80’s Sci-Fi Action Film

Reviewed in the United States on May 12, 2018

Verified Purchase

I love this movie and have watched it many times. If I have over a horror fan and they tell me that they’ve never seen it, I frequently offer to put it on. The response I get is often, “Oh, that was made in the 80’s – it couldn’t be very good”. So I say, “OK, I’ll make a deal with you. Let’s watch the first ten minutes. If you don’t like it, we’ll take it off”. Invariably, after viewing the opening sequence, my guest will reply, “OK – let’s finish it!”

This is kind of a trick, you see, for the first ten minutes of The Hidden contains one of the most exciting car-chase scenes I know of in science fiction. But the rest of the film is just as good. The plot is simple; Roger Ebert called it “A cross between Invasion of the Body Snatchers and The Terminator”. But it is really much more. Face paced, action filled and lots of fun, this is a popcorn movie in the truest sense of the word. Handsome Michael Nouri, who some sci-fi fans may recognize as the villain in the Original Flash TV pilot (the 80’s Flash, not the current incantation), is great as the main hero, a family man who is puzzled when ordinary citizens suddenly start robbing banks and stealing red Ferraris. Kyle MacLachian is extremely amusing as an FBI agent from outer space, who is tracking “The Hidden” from planet to planet. The jokes are funny, the action almost non-stop and the excitement constant. I enjoy it every time I watch it, and I bet you will too. This 1980’s cult-movie fan favorite is very watchable and lots of fun. Highly recommended.

Reviewed in the United States on January 13, 2018

A really nice looking blu-ray that gives new life to an 80s sci-fi/action cult classic! For those who haven't seen or heard of this flick...

Another of my favorite 80s guilty pleasures, The Hidden is basically The Thing, Lethal Weapon and The Terminator all rolled into one, as a body stealing extraterrestrial criminal is pursued on earth by an alien lawman and an earth cop with most of L.A. caught in the crossfire. Michael Nouri exudes tough guy charm as hard-nose cop Tom Beck who is teamed on a bizarre crime spree case with strange federal agent Lloyd Gallagher (Kyle MacLachlan). Soon Beck finds that there may be something unearthly going on and his “partner” may not be what he seems either.

Hidden is a fun sci-fi action thriller that is well directed and furiously paced by Jack Shoulder. Shoulder keeps Jim Kouf’s clever script moving fast and keeps the audience’s attention with plenty of blood, bullets and chase scenes. But Shoulder doesn’t move things too quickly that we don’t get to know our lead characters and a little about what makes them tick. While we rarely see the alien creature, the FX depicting it are good as is the carnage it leaves behind. The action scenes and stunt work are all top notch as well, for such a modest production and there is plenty of action to be had.

The cast are all good in their roles including supporting players Clu Gulager, Ed O’Ross and Richard Brooks as Beck’s fellow officers. Leads Nouri and MacLachlan make a good team and work well off each other and it’s fun to watch Nouri’s Beck try to figure out his weird Fed partner then start to warm up to him even after finding out he’s not from around here.

The Hidden is a mash-up of genres and movies that would have made Roger Corman proud had it been one of his productions and it does play much like one of Corman’s flicks. The film still holds up today as a fun Terminator style action flick and the added 80s nostalgia doesn’t hurt it either. Definitely a film to be enjoyed with a few beers and a few friends.

An 80s gem

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on August 24, 2019

I remember watching this on video many moons ago. A very good movie. About law abiding citizens who suddenly become killers. What is unknown to the police. It's an alien with a taste for fast cars, heavy metal music and killing. This alien jumps bodies which make it hard to catch or stop. Until the police get help from outer space. Pity the second movie wasn't as good

When Jack DeVries, a previously model citizen suddenly embarks on a spree of bank robberies and murders, the police hunt him down and after a long car chase he is badly burned when his car blows up. Even close to death, DeVries seems of special interest to F.B.I Agent Lloyd Gallagher(Kyle MacLachlan), who joins the cop Harry Beck(Michael Nouri) who is covering the case. When DeVries dies in the hospital, Gallagher's interest shifts to a terminal patient Jonathan Miller, who has seemingly just sat up and walked out of his deathbed.
Beck has no idea what on earth is going on. Nothing on earth in fact, as an alien is using human bodies as temporary hosts, for a spot of unique social climbing.....
This a great hidden treasure from that great cinematic decade, the 1980's. The film's success is partly due to the great sense of fun it engenders, partly due to the great cast assembled and partly because it just tells a cracking good story.
Nouri and MacLachlan certainly work very well together as the odd couple cops, with Beck's no nonsense approach rubbing up against Gallagher's analytical methodology.
The concept of the alien is so funny, because it's so human. It likes loud rock music, fast cars and hot women and sulks when it doesn't get it's own way. The actual true alien form is only briefly seen, but is very effective.
The film transcends its B-Movie roots with lovely little touches such as quite an emotional closing sequence and the witty, literate script. There's quite a supporting cast to be found here too, ably supporting Nouri and MacLachlan. How about Ed O'Ross, Clu Gulager and William Boyett for starters.
An excellent film, at last getting the recognition it deserves. The main attraction amongast the extras on the dvd is an informative commentary by the director Jack Sholder. 5 out of 5.

"He sees something he wants, he steals it. If something gets in his way, he kills it. And right now, he's hiding out in your city."

The Hidden was one of those terrific little movies that seem to come out of nowhere and seemed destined for cult status it's never quite attained when it came out in 1988. A cops and robbers spin on the body snatchers genre, Michael Nouri's cop finds himself saddled with Kyle MacLachlan's strange FBI man in pursuit of seemingly ordinary law-abiding citizens who suddenly go off on killing rampages in stolen Ferraris and don't go down no matter how many bullets you pump into them. Not surprising considering it's all the same killer, a hedonistic alien who takes what it wants and kills anyone in its way, using human bodies like cars and just getting a new one when they get too damaged to move around in any more. It's an engagingly silly idea that allows for plentiful action scenes and swipes at 80s excess, but it's also played with a commendably straight face and with better lead performances than usual for the genre. Nouri manages to make his in the dark cop convincingly human while the film plays well to MacLachlan's slightly alien 80s screen presence as he goes through the film like a man wearing a mask - which, in a way, he is - without ever being a complete blank.

Jack Sholder's direction is extremely good, not just in the excellent action scenes but in small character touches that add a lot and elevate it above the straight-to-video fodder of the day - it's a real movie movie, so much so that it's surprising he never broke into the mainstream. His audio commentary on the DVD is interesting too, dealing with his ongoing problems with Nouri throughout the shoot and original writer Jim Kouf's reasons for taking his name off the picture. Well worth catching up with - but just pretend the astonishingly bad 1993 sequel, made with a completely different cast and crew, never happened.

A blast from the past. I lived this film back in the day and it still as fun as I remember it.
The directors commentary seems to be from a slightly different version of the movie.

A 'Hidden' Gem

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on November 10, 2016

Verified Purchase

The 80's truly were the decade for 'buddy cop' movies, but one that often tends to be overlooked is 'The Hidden'. A mixture of 'a buddy cop movie' and 'The Terminator', it is an underrated gem, it contains enough humour, action and suspense for even the most demanding B movie connoisseur. Michael Nouri and Kyle Machlachlan make an engaging team and the premise allows for some truly impactful action.
