Bump for those all-important holiday weekend rentals. I can’t believe nobody’s mentioned Porky’s or Cannonball Run.
Eddie Murphy RAW. Top Gun. Poltergeist. American Werewolf in London. Friday the 13th. Monty Pithon and the Quest for the Holy Grail (only saw it once). The Star Chamber. Scarface (end of 70s or beginning of 80s?). Terminator. A couple of Charles Bronson movies. TRON. Best of the Best (was it the 90s?). Indiana Jones.
Maybe more later…
Jim McD, Yep, great line from Something Wild.
“Oh! Sorry, Nelson.”
More 80s gold: Clue, Wise Guys, Teen Wolf, Year of the Dragon, Just One of the Guys, The Last American Virgin (weird frigging ending), Hunk, Breathless (with Richard Gere)
And on the subject of the Warriors, I just saw The Wanderers for the first time, and it also kicks ass: “Don’t fuck with the Wongs!”
Whats the name of that fine film with Bruce Leroy - the black Bruce Lee?
bangin’ afros
American Werewolf in London - classic!
Do people know what B-movies are in here? It doesn’t seem like it. Revenge of the Nerds is a great B- movie in the 80’s. So, was the Police Academy. King Kong, Godzilla.
Horror, Friday the 13th, Nightmare on Elm Street, What was that 3-D movie was called the “THING” or something like that.
Now the movies I listed were B-movies some of the movies I saw in this theard were not.
Before anybody says it, I know my list is not a pure B grade movies, but I am not a worshipper of their queen (Julie Strain) and, truthfully, when compared to all that is being done today (look at the CGI at the start of the Animatrix for example, almost lifelike, far better than Final Fantasy), all of the 80s (and first part of the 90s) look like, well, B-movie. Progress. A good thing. =0)
Real Genius is on Comedy Central at the moment. I should have listed it.
b-movies, not classics. scarface is not a b-movie.
hey kuri i think that movie that your talking about is called the last dragon i think…anyway its a cool b movie…your talking about the movie where he gets the glow at the end of the movie right? if soo then yeah i believe its called the last dragon.
ok, i know this isn’t a b movie but i thought willo was a kick a$$ movie!
STRIPES…NUFF SAID…‘THAT’S THE FACT…JACK!’
It was the 80’s. EVERY movie was a B movie!
