32 And spaketh did he the words of blessing He and all in time had come to know as the Lord's greeting, "Hello there."

33 And all they in that cursed land who stood in the presence of His divine countenance could see that it was good.

I started watching HBO and other movie channels in the mid 80s when I was like 8 or 9. I would come home from school and just watch whatever was on there, often over and over again. There is a whole slew of movies they used to show all the time back then that don't hold up well at all. One that I recently revisited for the first time in decades was Vibes, starring Jeff Goldblum and Cyndi Lauper.

Actually, the first part of the movie where they're essentially doing tryouts for a team of clairvoyant people is still okay. Picture a bunch of oddball people from NYC with weird abilities all in one room, intermingling in awkward ways. Of course, Goldblum as a guy who gets psychic visions by touching things is at his usual quirky best.

If they had made the movie about some kind of clairvoyant research institute and all the wacky people who are studied there, that might have been good. Unfortunately, they move the story to South America and get into this weird Inca mysteries thing that doesn't work at all.
