If it's crap... We'll tell you

Totally Tubular 80s B Movies You Should Rent

So, after discussing this exact topic with a member on here who hadn't had the pleasure of seeing - or even hearing of - most of these movies, I thought I would share these tidbits of leg warmer pleasure with the rest of you. If you like B-movie slasher, zombie, ghost or totally plotless movies from the 80s, you should definitely waste some brain cells on them ... like, for sure. Gag me with a smurf.

Happy Birthday To Me
Silent Night, Deadly Night
House On Sorority Row
One Dark Night
Night of the Comet
April's Fools Day
American Werewolf in London
Mausoleum
Return of the Living Dead
Motel Hell
Sleepaway Camp
Brazil
The Changling
Fright Night
Ice Pirates
Monkey Shines
Scanners
Killer Klowns from Outer Space

and my personal fav...
Xanadu :)
