Eight-year-old Drew Barrymore stars as the child who has the amazing ability to start fires with just a glance. Can her psychic power and the love of her father save her from the threatening government agency, "The Shop," that wants her destroyed Filled with blazing special effects and featuring an all-star cast including Martin Sheen and Heather Locklear, Art Carney, Louise Fletcher and George C. Scott, Firestarter is a must-own film for any fan of the supernatural.Bonus Content: Theatrical Trailer Review: Oh how I remember this - I first saw this film on a rented VHS tape delivered by a mobile rental company in the mid eighties. I only had it because it was by Stephen King and there weren't that many choices in the van, it being a very new thing back then when VHS players were huge things and very expensive. The gorgeous, heartbreakingly beautiful Heather Locklear met her demise early which surprised me and from then on the film just got better and better with real nasty villains after a surviving, loving father desperately trying to save his daughter Charlie, played by Drew Barrymore. Drew Barrymore captured my attention forever with her portrayal of Charlie in this film, she was brilliant and I don't think the part could have been played as well or as profoundly by anyone else. I watched it over and over for a week until it was time for the guy to come and collect it. When he did I asked him could he get me a copy for myself to which he answered "It won't be cheap". He wasn't joking either because as far as I know the public couldn't buy them although I might be wrong. He had to get it as a rental company so when he brought it to me weeks later it cost me £48 - around 1985 this was really expensive. The reason I am putting this here is to indicate how much I thought of this film, and in fact still do. I still have the videotape, I got the DVD but I am hoping that one day this file will be put on Blu-ray and given the treatment it has always deserved. The film is without a doubt a classic and watchable even today. It is thoroughly entertaining and once watched won't easily be forgotten. The first film I ever owned is still one of my all time favourites, Firestarter holds a special place in my heart and I think it will in yours should you decide to buy it.

So a lot of info' to take in, - as expected the picture looks fabulous,mono sound good enough for me. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.sk/products/362558414-firestarter-dvd-1984-region-1-us-import-ntsc](https://www.desertcart.sk/products/362558414-firestarter-dvd-1984-region-1-us-import-ntsc) --- *Product available on Desertcart Slovakia* *Store origin: SK* *Last updated: 2026-08-17*
