1986 · Rob Reiner · 89m
In 1959 Oregon, four boys set out on a hike to find the body of a missing kid, a journey that tests their friendship and forces each of them to confront their own fears and futures.
Timestamps below are for the Theatrical cut (1h 29m).
APPROX — no sourced timestamp exists. Narrative placement: day two, swamp crossing, roughly the back third of the film, before the boys reach the body. Needs a manual scrub to pin an exact time — do not treat 0:00 as a real cue if you default it.
The 'Barf-o-Rama': in Gordie's campfire story, 'Lard-Ass' Hogan drinks castor oil before a pie-eating contest and deliberately vomits, triggering chain-reaction vomiting across the whole crowd. ~5.5 min, sustained, full visual and audio, many characters. Deliberately over-the-top gross-out, not realistic. Ends 49:20 — safe to resume by 50:00.
A leech attaches to a boy's leg/groin while the group crosses a swamp; he pulls it off with visible blood and faints. Brief but graphic. No exact timestamp could be sourced anywhere publicly — flagging this one with narrative placement only rather than guessing: it falls on the second day of the hike, after the Barf-o-Rama campfire story and before the group finds the body near the film's climax.

One extended mass-vomiting sequence ('Barf-o-Rama'), fully self-contained and cleanly skippable — it's a story told by one character around a campfire, not tied to the main plot.
