Motel Hell: Free HBO! With "Red Dawn" Exclusive!

After about two weeks of traveling, which included visiting family in St. Louis, I’m back in Pennsylvania, house painting, breathing a sigh that I have DirecTV again. The various motels we slept in while crossing the Heartland all seemed to have the same horrible cable TV, with a lineup that resembles what a victim watches in a tacky motel room as we go to “Killer Cam” viewpoint: Chuck Norris kicking or exploding something, infomercials about miracle towels and natural male enhancement pills, the occasional AMC classic like Red Dawn.
I just saw an infotainment piece about Tom Cruise’s son starring in a remake of that grade -B action movie where the Soviets invade and take over the US, starting in Colorado, of all places (“Go Wolverines!”).

The best scene is the Soviet paratrooper invasion at the beginning, machine-gunning the school like the ruthless do-badders they were.
It makes me wonder: How old is Cruise’s son? Is this going to be Red Nightlight: The Toddler Invasion?
