My wife need to see more 80's movies

[Evolved]

Better off Dead
Rad
Rad 2
Thrasher

Hold up. There’s a Rad 2?!?

 

[ID Bronco]

I thought so, maybe I had it confused with some other classics:

Breakin'
Breakin' 2 the Electric Boogaloo - I think I have this correct

Turbo and Ozone! Loved them.

Another good movie in the same vein as Rad would be Gleaming the Cube.

Many films I would list have been mentioned--which is great--but here are two more:

- Robocop. This may be the single greatest film of the '80s. I say that because it has a solid and engaging story, is very tight and perfectly paced, has excellent character development, was fabulously directed, and is loaded with social commentary which has sadly become pretty accurate now that 35 years have passed.

- The Wraith. Looking for oodles and oodles of '80s cheese? Here it is, in spades. While critically panned in its time (and rightfully so), this street racing saga has become a modern cult classic.

Is your wife too young to have seen these or did she have a sheltered childhood?

 

[Thursty]

Over The Top

 

[Pike2350]

Another few

Maximum Overdrive
Gremlins

 

[Stephen]

How have we forgotten:

Mad Max (1979, so it can identify as an 80's movie)
The Road Warrior
Beyond Thunderdome

 

[1969honda]

Short Citcut
Howard the Duck

Over The Top

I was in Vegas for an arm wrestling competition and saw Stallone pretty up close while part of this was being filmed. I had enjoyed the Rambo stuff and was shocked by what a tiny dude he actually is.

I got beat in the quarter finals by the winner and world champion in my weight class (176-197lbs right hand). Effed up my elbow and quit that shit.

[bobn]

Vanishing Point - the original

Italian Job - the original - Don’t miss the opening credits!

These are both older than the 80’s, but so am I

When are you going to write an autobiography?

I'd have to check on the statutes of limitations before I could answer that.

[NYCEGUY01]

A few 70’s here but they identify as 80’s movies…

White lightning
Gator ( Jerry Reid as the bad guy, classic…)
Smokey and the bandit
Hooper
Cannonball run
Stroker ace

Who are you people and what do you have against Burt…lol

 

[rholbrook]

Sum bitches need to watch all of the Smokey and the Bandits

 

[glockman]

I watch at least a dozen of the movies listed every year or two so I was a little surprised when you guys listed them as 80's movies. 😂.
Full metal jacket, roadhouse, young guns and red dawn are timeless.
