The most expensive movie at its time, Total Recall cemented Arnold Schwarzenegger’s stardom, rejuvenated Sharon Stone’s career, and frankly didn’t accomplish anything good. These faults aside, Total Recall adapted the Phillip K. Dick story “We Can Remember It for You Wholesale” making for a blockbuster with lots of philosophy (Matrix much?). Schwarzenegger’s mind wiped hero searching for answers tackled many violent and special effect laden sequences, from the thrilling mind meld to ripping a tacking device out through his nose.
