                @lilbud it's absolutly amazing! The show gives you that creepy/scary 80's movie feelings but with an amazing plot and effects! You will be hooked after one episode 👻 And if you got the time, have you seen the movie 'the Lost Boys'? It would make a great screen!

                    The Lost Boys was a great movie back in the day! I haven't seen it in years so I don't know how well it holds up today. Many years later they made a sequel but I never saw it and heard that it wasn't very good and only Corey Feldman reprises his roll from the first movie.

                    I guess there's actually 2 sequels and they both went straight to video.

                    Never seen that movie. But I am going through a bunch of old movies.

                    @lilbud what old movies have you been watching or planning on watching?

                        @backstander the 2 sequels where crap... The original is still great! Got a copy on vhs, dvd, SE dvd and blu ray. Vertigo ( comicbook publisher) is making a Lost Boys comic

                          Those where all great movies that I remember watching when I was a kid. Others I remember enjoying as a kid where The Goonies, The 3 Amigos, The Neverending Story, Beetlejuice, Labyrinth, The Dark Crystal, the 2 Bill & Ted movies, Uncle Buck, Airplane!, The Karate Kid and some of my friends didn't agree but I kind of likes the 2nd Highlander movie better.

                          If you haven't already, you should watch the original Evil Dead, Evil Dead 2 and Army of Darkness movies...then maybe watch the TV show Ash vs Evil Dead.
                          I think those would make a great splashscreen!

                          Also The Secret of NIMH which was a dark cartoon but had some great visuals!

                            Don't forget 'Within the Woods' that started it all.

                              Oh yeah, how could I have forgotten Within the Woods!
                              I enjoy a movie with Bruce Campbell in it! Even if it's a really bad B-movie lol!

                                Also, how awesome was it to see Ellen Sandweiss make her return as Cheryl a few weeks back? Great season so far!

                                  Blade Runner is a "must-watch". But Neverending Story... I don't like it...

                                  I don't know if you are looking for movies from the 80's only, but here's a short list that I like:

                                  • Total Recall
                                  • 2001: a Space Odyssey
                                  • 12 Monkeys
                                  • A Clockwork Orange
                                  • Useful topics
                                  • joystick-selection tool
                                  • rpie-art tool
                                  • achievements I made

                                    I agree those are good movies!

                                    But Neverending Story... I don't like it...

                                    I saw that as a kid and loved it but I did watch it about 5-6 years ago and it hasn't aged well

                                    Total Recall

                                    I bet you're talking about the original 1990 version even though the 2012 reboot wasn't that bad.

                                    2001: a Space Odyssey

                                    Is a great story but has some excruciatingly slow scenes but worth a watch non-the-less. Also A Clockwork Orange was directed by the same director!

                                    12 Monkeys

                                    This is a great story as well. Really makes you think if you can follow it lol

                                    I might also add:

                                    • Fight Club
                                    • Interview with the Vampire
                                    • Butterfly Effect
                                    • Donnie Darko

                                    Hopefully you don't come down with depression after watching all these movies lol
