Fav 80s Cult Movies, W/O 80s Soundtrack

Postby Frau_Blucher » Mon Apr 11, 2005 11:28 pm

Well the Fandango DVD was FINALLY released and inspires this "Your Favorite 80s Cult Classic Movie Poll". Not necessarily cult movies but even popular ones with an enduring cult following.

Since there's a 15 item limit on the polls, I've split it into two polls: movies WITH an overt 80s soundtrack and movies WITHOUT. This poll is for WITHOUT but vote for both:

PS. Some movies left on the cutting room floor:

The Big Blue: one of MY favs but doubt any others
Blues Brothers: too broad-audience?
The Breakfast Club: enough already
Heathers: very late 80s
Pretty in Pink: my head + title track = scene from Brai

Eraserhead!!!

(Edit: Ooops! This is from 1977. But I watched it a lot in the 80's. That's what I get for being stoned nearly every time I watched it. Ah, good times...)
