Steven Spielberg's The Goonies exploded onto theatre screens in 1985 and captured the imagination of cinema goers the globe over. The pic followed the exploits of a group of kids living in Astoria as they fumbled their way through caves, slid into water pools, played the bones on an ancient organ and climbed onto a pirate ship owned by infamous Captain One-Eyed Willy.

To commemorate the 20th anniversary of The Goonies, two fans have journeyed back to Astoria and created a moving picture comparing scenes from Spielberg's classic cult film to present day locations. Patrick Radcliff and Rob Fugeleeth manage to encapsulate the same spirit of adventure which emanated from Josh Brolin (Brandon), Sean Astin (Mikey), Kerri Green (Andy), Martha Plimpton (Steff), Jeff Cohen (Chunk), Jonathan Ke Quan (Data) and Corey Feldman (Mouth) back in 1985.

'The Goonies Vacation' is a worthy piece of film produced by a couple of individuals who, like so many, owe much to a group of kids who - back in the eighties - banded together against adversity in search of adventure and captured the true spirit of unity and innocence.
