i'm trying to think of and rewatch old stuff from the 80s and 90s that i remember seeing when i was younger that i havent thought about in years. anyone have anything else in this vein they can think of? im thinking of more cheezy horror stuff, or stuff that never really was mainstream but you liked or still remember.

here is some of the type of stuff im trying to find again:

night of the comet: [url]http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Night_of_the_Comet[/url]

house: [url]http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0091223/[/url]

the people under the stairs: [url]http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0105121/[/url]

maximum overdrive [url]http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0091499/[/url]

critters [url]http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0090887/[/url]

kingdom of the spiders [url]http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0076271/[/url]

killer klowns from outer space [url]http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0095444/[/url]

anyone have any other 80s stuff like this? trying to watch some of this stuff again i havent seen in years, stuff i remember going to the video store back in the 80s and seeing the vhs boxcovers of this stuff in the horror section, so its been a long time since ive seen some of these.

D.A.R.Y.L - filmed next door to the house I grew up in...my neighborhood, little league baseball park, and even my sis (being pushed in a stroller) is in this movie... Some of my uncles even drove the police cars in one one of the scenes.

There are several clips on youtube... this movie totally takes me back to childhood...

Re: 80s and 90s (not necessarily good) movies

i remember seeing the title of this a long time ago but i never actually watched it. the kid playing daryl looks familiar though. this was filmed by you and your house is in it?? that is pretty cool.

The Shining (although it was a little mainstream)

Hardware was pretty good. Bit of an Alien/Terminator rip off, but still pretty cool.

Re: 80s and 90s (not necessarily good) movies

Re: 80s and 90s (not necessarily good) movies

I always thought Warning Sign was good, this kind of scared the piss out of me when I was a kid.

Heres the trailer:

[url]http://www.imdb.com/video/screenplay/vi4192272665/[/url]

This has Sam Waterston, Kathleen Quinlan, Yaphett Koto and a few other people in it. A good scary little biohazard/virus movie.

Re: 80s and 90s (not necessarily good) movies

The Hidden - just the opening chase sequence alone is pretty hilarious and awesome. Alien possesses people and goes on insane crime sprees - Kyle MacLachlan is the FBI agent trying to track him down.

I always like the House Party Movies.. The original ones with Kid-n-Play.

Re: 80s and 90s (not necessarily good) movies

this isnt a movie, but an 80s tv series. does anyone else remember watching this? this intro was scarier than 99% of this show since it was supposed to be a bit comedic/cheezy.

[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UnE3-0X-174[/youtube]
