Forgotten Movies from the 80s! - Vol. 8

[@leecroft1983]

Inner Space is really good, great movie.

[@MoviesNeverSayDie]

Absolutely, super unique and the laughs still hold up!

[@fvgoya]

You have no idea how cool and good service you are doing creating these videos about 80’s. I’m from ‘78 and I’ve watched lot of theses videos that I even remember. You are bring me back good memories and now I can search on Amazon some of these movies. THANK YOU!!!!!

[@MoviesNeverSayDie]

Thanks so much for the supportive words dude I appreciate it. This is the main reason I enjoy making these videos. Not too many channels on KZbin covering the smaller known films from the decade. Many of these movies are also free on Tubi/Pluto/FreeVee as well! Thanks for watching! 🤙🏻

[@tannerdowney2802]

78, great year to be born.

[@jeremeybrown9716]

The Wraith, One Crazy Summer are ALWAYS a go to movie, for me. I watch both multiple times a year. Sometimes multiple times a week!!

[@MoviesNeverSayDie]

Haha I hear you bro, I have so many 80s/90s movies on rotation either to sit back and watch or having playing the background. Thanks for watching Jeremey! 👍🏻

One Crazy Summer. One of my favs

Hated that one.

[@frankdux5785]

Tim Feehan - “where’s the fire” is one of the most epic 80’s songs of all time. U instantly become the Wraith when u play it in ur car and the speed limit no longer applies to u.

[@MoviesNeverSayDie]

Hell yea! 80s movie music is in a league of its own! Thanks for watching! 🤙🏻

[@dpc374]

Great song. Play it often.

[@TonyE-rw8qo]

The wreath was filmed in my hometown along with can’t buy me love and revenge of the nerds and I’m happy to say that I own probably 60% of the videos you talked about on this

[@MoviesNeverSayDie]

Thats awesome! I grew up in a small town and scenes from the Twin Peaks movie were filmed at my high school Thanks for watching! 🤙🏻

The wraith is my favorite 80’s movie. Where was it filmed?

[@MoviesNeverSayDie]

I think a lot of it was filmed in Tucson AZ.

The Principal is a great classic, I really enjoyed it

[@MoviesNeverSayDie]

It is a solid action flick, I always enjoy Belushi. Thanks for watching! 🤙🏻

[@billymabum3514]

It’s been labelled along with many others as a white saviour film now

[@MoviesNeverSayDie]

I've grown to learn the labels of today mean nothing.

[@uttasyda9746]

"I'm the principal, man!!" - James Belushi 💯👍😁🤣🤣

[@williamkidney6031]

Inner space was a pretty big hit back then. There's one movie I recommend from 1987 called Amazon women on the moon, it's a spoof of sci-fi movies of the '50s and intermixed with sketches, late night tv and other things, has a variable cast of well known celebrities. Kinda like the Kentucky fried movie, which came out in the 70s just random crazy stuff you'd never see again today.

[@MoviesNeverSayDie]

Oh shit! I haven't heard that title in ages! Never seen it but I can remember the cover. I definitely need to get it on my watchlist! Thanks for watching! 🤙🏻

[@dondurgan427]

Inner Space has one of the best soundtracks from an 80s movie

[@georgemathie8123]

You are awesome my friend one crazy summer is one of my favorite comedys as a kid and innerspace is one of my all time childhood favorites and also my favorite Joe Dante movie to and star 80 is a disturbing and wonderful film and Eric Roberts is amazing in that movie

I recall the detail that on GoodBadFlicks for the review of The Wraith that Brooke Burke is uncredited as a server on Roller Blades outside a restaurant similar to Sonic.

[@btetschner]

A+ video! Awesome-looking movies!

[@MoviesNeverSayDie]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@babymammoth34]

An American Tale will always have a warm and special place in my heart ☺☺🥰🥰. My dad took me out to see it as a 6 year old when it was released and it was a wonderful time. Deeply heartfelt and moving story and excellent performances and music, etc. I was often on the edge of my seat as I followed the main character's quest.

[@MoviesNeverSayDie]

I hear you bro, An American Tail and Land Before Time were a couple of gut-wrenching cartoons.

[@KapiteinKrentebol]

A lot of childrens stories and fairy tales used to be a lot deeper and darker before Disney Disneyfied them.

[@KnuckNFutz]

I haven't seen Cloak and Dagger (1984) on any of these videos. Hope to see that 80s gem get some love. 😊

[@MoviesNeverSayDie]

Child’s play was actually filmed in my neighborhood and my grade school . As a 8yr old watching them blow up the building Chucky blew up was so cool to see 40th and calumet Chicago Illinois was the block lol

[@MoviesNeverSayDie]

That's awesome! What a memory to have, actually seeing the climax of a classic horror movie being filmed is killer! I remember they filmed a scene with Halle Berry The Rich Man's Wife at a bar in the small town I grew up in but that is boring in comparison! 😆 Thanks for watching! 👍🏻

[@jonbolton3376]

The Wraith has been on my to-watch list for a while. I'm now adding One Crazy Summer, The Principle, Up The Creek, Bad Medicine, to my list. I've not heard of those before.

[@MoviesNeverSayDie]

I hope you enjoy bro! All are fun movies!

[@babymammoth34]

I always enjoyed how Packard, the main villain in the Wraith, would flippantly refer to everyone he talked to as 'Guy". "Nothing personal, guy...Now where were you goin' with my girl???" "You lost the race, guy...what can I say?" To the sheriff when he told him he came to take him to the station for questioning "I'm not goin' anywhere, guy." Too funny.

[@MoviesNeverSayDie]

🤣 there's a guy I know from work that does the same thing!

[@jasoncase9481]

If The Wraith was remade with a bigger budget then the badass supernatural car would be shown off more.

I definitely had a few of those. I still remember the day the VCR ate by Batman '89 tape. It was life altering for a 12 year old! Haha.

[@weikel2000]

A lot of movies here that I love. The Wraith, One Crazy Summer, and The Principle are all movies that have seen several times. But Star 80 is a cut above the rest. It's oozing with sleaze but masterfully told, and it really is the type of movie that you only watch once. The acting is stellar and it's truly a heartbreaking story. I feel like the subject matter makes it something that people really don't want to talk about, it's uncomfortable to discuss and hard to recommend without feeling like you're condoning what happened.

[@MoviesNeverSayDie]

Couldn't agree more about Star 80. It's one of those movies you can recommend for how it crafts atmosphere, the performances, and just how well it can evoke an emotional response but it certainly would come with a huge disclaimer.

[@jasoncase9481]

I recall Wraith being reviewed on Cult Film in Review.

[@MoviesNeverSayDie]

Great movie!

[@lurkerrekrul]

The Wraith - "You got anything to say, or are your veins bloated with brain eradicator too?" One Crazy Summer - "I want my two dollars!" Up the Creek: "That can mean only one thing! Irwin's naked!"

[@MoviesNeverSayDie]

So many quotable films from the 80s! It was a magical time! Thanks for watching! 👍🏻

[@Codmaniac91]

Another high school thriller that deserves a mention is "Class of 1984". It takes place in a school that is ran by student gang members. And the teachers are overwhelmed and stressed out by them as they walk all over them and the good students as well. Up until the new music teacher stops taking their bs and starts going at it with them. Also look for both a young pre-back to the future Michael J Fox as one of the good students and Roddy McDowell as one of the two main Teachers trying to survive.

[@MoviesNeverSayDie]

Completely agree. I know I got it into one of the volumes just can't remember which one.

[@MiniLemmy]

Any movie with Bobcat Goldthwaite in has to be worth watching - the guy is an iconic comedic actor

I remember Bad Medicine being hyped to hell on video in the wake of Police Academy. It makes for a great trailer... but after revisiting it recently, I can see why it didn't endure in the public conciousness. Star 80 is great. Roberts' performance is incredible - you feel dirty after watching it.

(1986) Wraith may have inspired the great science fiction dystopian movie (1987) Robocop. It has the very similar plot aspect since Officer Murphy after getting tortured by a criminal brigade before Clarence the remorseless leader kills Murphy by shooting his head. OCP is able to rebuild Murphy as the futuristic Cyborg with programming known as Robocop, and Robocop has the violent vengeance motivation after remembering that he was tortured and murdered by a terrifying evil brigade which he saw during a dream that he had.
