Starring: Rae Dawn Chong, Don Gordon, Tom Towles, Antonio Fargas

Just as Henry: Portrait of a Serial Killer was slowly finding distribution, John McNaughton was eager for his next project when the script for The Borrower stood out among otherwise uninspiring stories. A playful mix of genres, The Borrower has a remarkable cast of character actors who embody an alien transitioning between human forms, with frequent McNaughton player Tom Towles stealing the show. This is a movie that deserves higher cult status, replete with exploding heads and a demented sense of humor.
