unknown 80's movie maybe 'the alien kid'

Asked Mar 25, 2007, 12:17 PM — 7 Answers
Hi I'm trying to find the name of a film I used to watch when I was a lad. Its very vaige in my memory all I can remember is that a boy was being hunted by the government or organisation and was helped to escape by a fat sheriff. I know this is a shot in the dark but someone must have seen it. I thought it was a film called D.A.are.why.L but was mistaken. Please someone help me as its been bugging me for 10 years

Could it have been cloak and daggers?

It's possible you're thinking of an English-dubbed Italian movie from 1980 called Chissà perché... Capitano tutte a me (aka Why Did You Pick on Me?). An imdb.com reviewer notes: "Basically the kid is an alien and Bud is a sheriff (this is a sequel to The Sheriff and the Satellite Kid, which I now also have gotten from ebay on the strength of this) who is protecting the kid from the government."

Flight of the Navigator had the government looking for the kid, but there was no sheriff that I can recall...maybe this is it?

Saw the movie Sheriff and the Satellite kid in the 80s starring Bud Spencer and Cary Guffey. I could never remember the name of it until now. Thanks.
