Summer school but fatal attraction and which is of Easter egg were very close
 
Toss up between Running Man and Nightmare 3 but voted Nightmare because the nurse getting topless was prime 8th grade wank material. But her turning into Freddy was a real boner killer.

The Running Man by a lot of miles. Over the Top a distant second. Fatal Attraction third.
 
Toss up between Running Man and Nightmare 3, but I voted Nightmare because the nurse getting topless was prime 8th grade wank material. But her turning into Freddy was a real boner killer.
Yeah that is my second choice. Them titties, some of the coolest deaths of the series, AND Dokken's kick ass song? Tough to beat.
 
Oddly I decided to rewatch Fatal Attraction yesterday.

Close is a weird looking lady....Don't think I'd bang actually. Douglas chose a fucking dog to have an affair with.

I'll take Beverly Hills Cop 2 off that list of under 7s.
 
Toss up between Throw Momma From the Train and The Running Man. I had to pick one, so I went with the former.
 
Wow Near Dark is under 7? One of the best films of the 80's. period. imo



Total Carpenter junkie and I sing PODs praises every chance I get but some of the acting in key roles was putrid.

I go with 3 straight horror.

Near Dark - #1 with a bullet. Super underrated film
Prince - #2. With a seasoned cast like he had with The Thing it would be one of my all time horror GOATs
Hellraiser #3. Clive Barker is all that needs to be said.

then Fatal Attraction which was great but it's a depressing film. Hard to stomach more than once every 10-15 years at best.
 
Adventures in Babysitting,

Was a Huge fan of Elizabeth in my youth..
Shue was one of my first movie crushes.


It was a toss up between Adventures in Babysitting, Beverly Hills Cop 2, Running Man, and Summer School (very underrated imo). Went with BHC2.

Edit: Just remembered that I saw Adventures in Babysitting with a buddy when we were on the way back to town after going camping. We had built a fire so hot that it was melting cans. Good times.
 
Such a great list of movies. It's interesting how ratings for older movies were much harsher than it is for modern movies. Back then even very good movies were scored in the 6-7 range, while now trash is given 8s and 9s. Standards have really dropped.
