What is an 80s film that you have never seen. One that has been really popular but for some reason or other you haven't gotten around seeing it.

One 80s movie that is talked about a lot that I have never seen is Purple Rain. I am not a big Prince fan.

Do you have an 80s film that you want to see but haven't yet?

Posted by paulshrimpton (Member # 1022) on :

There are quite a few that I haven't seen, but mainly because of the genre - I'm no big horror flick fan, and so all the Friday 13th stuff I've not seen. There are probably others that I would like to see but haven't, but I cn't think of one at present.

Now if you want movies that I shouldn't have seen and did... well that's a whole other question! Two Of A Kind, Grease 2, Teen Wolf 2, Police Academy 2 (I can see a connection - the number 2 - oh, wait a moment, what about Police Academy 3 thru 7...?)

paaaaaul....i love grease 2 [Frown]

and i have a loooooooooong list of movies i haven't seen. but i am getting to them gradually.

Please, don't kill me but I actually haven't seen 'Sixteen Candles' yet.

I know, I'm ashamed too. [Embarrassed]

It was supposed to come out on r2 in september, but until now,... NADA [Frown]

Guess, I'll buy it on R1, cause according to what I've already read about it,... this movie is awesome!

That's a promise!

I have yet not seen E.T., please don't ban me from these forums [Razz]

I have never seen the Outsiders!!! I just recorded it on Tivo and plan on watching it in the near future.

Posted by nothinlikebefore (Member # 1888) on :

I have yet to see Last American Virgin, and I have been dying to ever since I read that post about how sad it was, but I can't find it anywhere! Not even the eclectic video shop I rent from has it. I would buy it, but I am a little hesitant to buy things I haven't seen before.

An 80's movie that I have just recently seen for the first time just a few months ago is the "Lost Boys"...man I was surprised.

A good 80's movie, that I wish I would have seen earlier..

[Big Grin]

...Here's to seeing more movies for the first time

Posted by RiverPhoenix4life (Member # 1719) on :

I haven't seen the Last American Virgin either...I kno, shame on me. kenkobra, as i write this I am watchin the Outsiders on dvd. You must see this film!!! The first time i saw it I didn't want it to end. Also, I have only seen bits and pieces of Weird Science.

Tootles! [Wink]

Posted by RiverPhoenix4life (Member # 1719) on :

Hey everyone, just caught Last American Virgin on cable. All I have to say is...someone please hand me a tissue. [Frown]

While watchin, I knew there was gonna be a sad ending cuz someone had it listed it on the tearjerker post, but I never guessed that. Chrimity! I actually find similarities in myself that I saw in Gary. Does this mean how will have his great luck?(said sarcastically)lol. Great movie, and I'm lovin the soundtrack!

Tootles! [Wink]

River- do you know if LAV is coming on again and if so, what station did you see it on? I am dying to see it. Thanks

Devolution here,

I have never seen Tuff Turf, but I remember the trailer.

We are DEVO

Posted by sam hain2 (Member # 1964) on :

Kim Richards is hot in Tough Turf, also a pretty decent movie

Posted by Smayt Gateford (Member # 1500) on :

I have'nt seen SIXTEEN CANDLES [Mad]

but the one film I really want to see because of how everyone on this forum seems to love it, is: VALLEY GIRL. So hopefully i'll get a chance to see it one day.

Dang, you've missed 2 0f the main 80's staples. I recommend you give yourself an evening where you can watch these 2 classics. ASAP.

*raises eyebrow*....AND TKO. you have never seen sixteen candles?? [Eek!]

just like sam said, it's a must.

not good, my friend.

I have never seen Near Dark. Even though I have the DVD, but haven't purchased my DVD player yet! Haven't seen Children of the Corn ,Sleepaway Camp or Space Camp either.

Posted by RiverPhoenix4life (Member # 1719) on :

Sorry nothinlikebefore, I just checked the guide and LAV isn't on again in the near future. Sowy! [Frown]

Tootles!

Posted by TresFoxy (Member # 542) on :

I have never seen "This is Spinal Tap" I don't remember anyone ever mentioning it here but it is 80's and a cult classic and I have never seen it! [Razz]

And about half the movies reviewed here! [Eek!]

Sad isn't it!? [Frown]

But I am trying to see all the 80's flicks I can!!!

Cool topic cuz my favorite thing to do is introduce someone to a great 80s flick they've never seen.
