Ep 131: Can't Buy Me Love

Bad Movies Worse People

Made in Arizona month continues with the 80's teen comedy, CAN'T BUY ME LOVE, starring Patrick Dempsey and Amanda Peterson (Rest in Pictures). Get a video version on our YouTube page, or get it ad-free at patreon.com/worsepeople. This classic 80s teen romp was filmed entirely in Tucson and actually takes place there as well. Nerdy ass Patrick Dempsey offers the head cheerleader $1000 to pretend to like him so he can be cool, and, in classic 80s fashion, she falls for him, but he's too self-absorbed to even notice. He starts to blow off his old friends, including Children of the Corn's Malachai, turning into a real shitheel, and, of course, hilarity ensues. This is a nostalgic classic for Jack and Whitney but a first-time watch for Derrick. You shit on my house!
