When I was a kid, the Repo Man soundtrack changed my life. (I didn't even see the movie til many years later.)

Having seen all of these back in the eighties, I ain't mad at that list.

Even critters is worth at least one watch.

But, Buckaroo Banzai is a fucking classic. If anyone running across this comment hasn't seen the movie, you have to. There was nothing like it at the time, and there still hasn't been since. You might not like it, but you will never forget it.

Agreed. Watched it to find out what's great about it. It wasn't for me. 😆

It isn't for everyone, that's for sure lol.

I remember watching it on VHS with my parents back when it was freshly released. My dad had already stopped watching halfway through, and my mom was just confused as to why I was laughing my ass off and insisting we watch it again.

At least 3 on the list is available on Peacock and that film is available on Prime gives me a list of movies to watch. I own Night of the Comet on dvd and seen Critters but most of the list never seen. Will start asap.

The photo of James Farentino made me think The Final Countdown would be on the list. It’s not, but I recommend it.
