“Disorganized Crime” from 1989 is such and underrated crime comedy. It is so good with an all star cast with Ed O’Neill, Lou Diamond Phillips, Ruben Blades, Fred Gwynne, Corbin Bernsen and others. It’s so quotable. Ruben Blades steals this one with his funny quips. “The Hidden” from 1987 is another underrated horror sci-fi movie that’s insanely good. Easily one of the best of the ‘80s that doesn’t get much attention. “Night of the Creeps” from 1986 is another good horror movie that I think young people would not have heard of. It’s really good with good funny dialogue, too. “Waxwork” from 1988 is yet another great horror movie that doesn’t get any attention from the mainstream. It’s an excellent horror movie with a great cast and premise. Check it out. “Into the Night” from 1985 is a good thriller with Jeff Goldbloom & Michelle Pfeiffer with a cameo of David Bowie in it. I remember this as a kid and thought it was pretty good. “Class of 1984” from 1982 is a really good thriller I saw recently. I was so impressed by this movie. So good.

"My Favorite Year," from 1982. A jittery young writer on a 1950s comedy show gets assigned to babysit an aging matinee idol -- a charming but irresponsible type, played by Peter O'Toole -- who's going to be guest-starring on the show. Everything in this film works; in particular, the comedic timing, reminiscent of the screwball comedies of the '30s and '40s, is absolutely dead-on.

1:58 - the real Melvin Dummar. In Tampopo, interspersed with the main story are a series of short sketches on the subject of food. Liquid Sky's Anne Carlisle later appeared in Desperately Seeking Susan. Mystery Train features Screamin' Jay Hawkins as the desk clerk of a seedy hotel in Memphis, and Joe Strummer holding up a liquor store. Two Australian films I'd add are the surreal Bliss (1985), and Dogs in Space (1987) featuring INXS's Michael Hutchence.

I've seen "The Tall Guy". It's pretty funny but if you want to see an obscure Jeff Goldblum film, check out "Mr. Frost". It's a thriller where Goldblum plays a man who may or may not be the devil.

It's the only movie I've had to stop. I took an edible and my blood pressure spiked toward the end. I stopped for about 15 minutes just to calm down a little. Truly terrifying stuff and the way it's shot perfectly captures panic

Liquid Sky is truly a cult classic that is like watching a kaleidoscopic capsule in time. Very relevant today as it was now.

The greatest 80's Rock movie you've never seen: Get Crazy (1983)- Wild, out of control, politically incorrect NSFW humor, mixed with the blues, punk rock and heavy metal music, all wrapped around a new year's eve party at a club.

Not sure if it's from the late 70s or early 80s but A Boy And His Dog with Don Johnson in one of his earliest roles is a great, weird movie.
