Recommend me some...

[The Crimson Universe]

Recommend me some of your favorite movies from the 80s. I mostly like horror and psychological thrillers. But action will do too.

A combination of both. Plus other apps. There's horror movie apps as well.

I could try some of those apps if they offer free downloading/streaming. Been downloading pirated copies from torrent for the last two decades. I mean if they're available for free then why pay. I know, i'm a cheapskate but now the problem is, even those torrent sites are shutting down one by one.

You might like Predator. Or Aliens. Or Predator vs Aliens.

I remember Labyrinth. That was a pretty good film. The Bog of Eternal Stench sounds like a place I'd like to visit.

Fantasy movies are not really my thing. But it'll be nice to watch something new for a change.

Thanks.

I enjoyed labyrinth, and bowie ;-)

 

[Stevicus]

I don't know if this counts as a psychological thriller, as it's more of a comedy, but 3 O'Clock High was one of the more unsung movies of the 80s. It was actually pretty good, though.

The Burbs

"The" Burbs is such a good movie. A couple lines I never forget:

Art: "Please, Carol, let him come out." (talking about their friend "Ray" - Tom Hanks)
Carol: He can't come out until he resembles the man I married.
Art: Carol, we don't have that kind of time.

And then, toward the end:

Ray (I think): Art, your wife is home!
Mark (I think): And your house is on fire!
Art: My wife is home?!
