  • Last joke of a dying computer: "Wrong Number".

  • Wang Computers...

  • Why did Edgar have to kill himself? :'(

  • @MrPhyrestorm - Because love is give, and not take... Edgar gave Madeline to Moles (Miles) and took himself away.

    Did he really kill himself, though?

    Best movie ever.

  • @Rymonster People make fun of me for loving this movie, but there's nothing cheesy about it... and it helps that Virginia Madsen is the most goregous woman on the planet.

  • @MrPhyrestorm He didn't kill himself. He took over one radio station before transforming into the Internet everyone's using today. At least that's what I think he did.

  • Why do they show all the other 80s films and no one shows this??

    You can't even find it on DVD very easily.

    Thanks for posting this.

  • I love this movie too, it makes goosebumps :-)

  • This movie has so many metaphors. Now a days lots of people prefer to sit in front of computers to talking to real people. Back then children were still in the streets with their bikes and baseball gloves. Today, nintendo, xbox, psp, ps3, gameboy etc etc etc. This guy chooses the girl over the computer. 2 weeks with no phone and no TV...damn.

  • Does anyone else think this is a genuinely sad ending?

  • @MrDamion66 It was sad until the computer came back alive and the Phillip Oakey song started playing... not to mention the good guy gets the girl at the end.

  • I love it...youthtime is coming back...;-)

  • Comment removed

  • thanks for putting online youth sentiment

  • everyday after after school in 2nd grade, cable t.v. played the same movies...this one was my favorite

  • I love this movie especially this part with this song.  Thanks for posting it!

  • RF

    They should make a Sequel to this movie

  • Anyone knows where to find the music that is played while EDGAR is talking his last words with him? (is the same music from when he learns to talk and wakes him up - music composed by Giorgio Moroder - I am not talking about the song from the end)

  • It's sad that Edgar eventually teams up with Skynet years down the line to destroy the planet.

  • @ragdollfantasies LOL!

    Edgar that little fickle bitch!

  • Best chick flick ever.

  • MAn... I was just listening to the soundtrack album on vinyl the other week. Georgio and Phil did a GREAT job on this... toghether.. electrically?

  • Well done for for that. Bought back a lot of memories.

  • Thank you soooo much for uploading this.

    Man, it's been like 15 years...this brings back that same emotion I had back then.

  • I love this movie so much. Had a VHS copy as a kid until my father recorded over it. Really enjoyed watching it again.

  • One of my favorites

  • So why didn't he just unplug the telephone cord?

  • well this one of my fave films of all time but hey watch your windows you never know lol nah they modern romance songs my teenage time god at this time of life i only had a zx spectrum lol

  • Made me cry as a child when the computer self destructs (I remember being embarassed for crying at "a stupid movie".)

    I really liked this film and had not seen it since childhood until I stumbled upon it on YouTube

    The weird thing is I ended up naming my first born daughter Madeleine.

    Maybe t his move made a bigger impact on me than I thought.

  • @irishbear76 Weren't you happy as a child to hear edgar alive on the radio? I love happy endings. I probably wouldn't watch it half as much if it ended with the blow out. Maybe not at all. Depressors get few views by me.

  • @Miracle490d

    Yes. I was glad to hear Edgar on the radio.

    It cheered me up a bit but I was stll embarassed about crying.

  • @irishbear76 It's funny the things we think we're supposed to be embarrassed about. Feelings shouldn't be an embarrassment. And if its a movie, it just means there's a gifted writer and actors behind it. I used to be embarrassed that I watched kids cartoons even in adulthood without kids. But not anymore. Why should I? Maybe that's what makes me a good writer. Afterall children didn't create the childish cartoons. I'd love to have that measure of success.

  • @irishbear76 embarassed?? ;) This was the only thing that made me cry and I was 9 years old ... I am 28 now .. never cried ever since .. and not with human casualties... I just dont understand why this happened .. and still does... if I need no cry... just watch this ending !!! The only thing that makes me cry ... And that's awesome you called your daughter Madeleine ehehehe :D It had a huge impact on you.... You just did not noticed ;)

  • thanks for the movie =) this was one of my favourite movies wen i was a kid i got the tape but its dirty so i cant watch it =) thank you so much 81682 bar for posting this vid =) i really apreciate it !

  • Thank you very much for posting this. Seeing this growing up set me on my path. Forever in Electric Dreams.

  • @cornwelj same here. Got into computer music .. and to question the human mind... my favourite 2 movies... this one and SEVEN ;) First time I saw this one as a kid ... and heard Edgar speak about self destructing cuz of loving Madeleine ... I cried like a little baby and felt so damn empty inside.... and man .. I can see horrors movies without closing my eyes.. I saw humans die and I did not cry ... somebody explain the subconscious effect of this movie ??? Saw this final clip and cried :X

  • Will the computer be alright?

  • @cookie123456789012 The computer is just fine. In fact he is now in computer systems all over the world.

  • The ending always gives me tears of happiness. The song is so upbeat and joyful.

  • wow, plug 'n play sound card, normally requires a hard boot ;)

  • ***** VERY GOOD *****

  • come back again on electric dreams 2 Edgar

    we love you!!!!

  • love this movie and I'm a guy

  • One of my all time favorite movies. I know it was a bit corny but I can't help loving this movie! BTW I cried too when Edgar died LOL

  • Trabalhei nesta epoca em uma video locadora, como saia este video (FHS), muito legal.

  • OMG I never knew what film was from, but the lyrics make soooooooo much sense now

  • I've cried when edgar commited suicide. Really. It was so sad, that i'm scared to watch this again. One of the most beautiful films in my life.

  • superbe film  ca faisait longtemps que je ne l'avait pas vu merci

  • Fond memories. Love the movie and the song at the end.

  • I loooooove this movie!

  • Looked for it on Amazon, but apparently it's only available in the UK and not the US. :-(

  • @vinnyvnin Google your dvd player model number and see if there is a hack code for it.  If there is, all you'll need to do is punch the numbers into your dvd player remote and it should set the player itself to be region free (so you can play any dvd on it). I did that with both of mine.

  • I own a mint tape copy original box and all hee hee.

  • Love this movie! Wish it was available on DVD

  • It is on DVD, It was released earlier this year, Got my copy from Amazon

  • Always felt more emotion for the robots in cinema. Loved this movie and Edgar's demise always stuck with me as one of the saddest moments in film..thanks for posting!

  • I love this movie.

    Thanks so much for putting it online,

    I really enjoyed watching it .

    I have not seen it for many many years

  • classic

  • Thank you for bringing back a lot of memories :)

  • 'Electric Dreams' is a friendlier version of 'Demon Seed'...

  • watch arcade, search megan ward in arcade, part 1 of 9

  • Edgar did not die, he went into all the world's computers and became Skynet, lol

  • maybe edgar went on to become HAL from 2001.

  • ohmygod!!!! memories coming back!! :'(
