10 Awesome 80s Movies That Time Forgot
Great 80s movies that deserve greater recognition.
For some movie fans, the 80s will never be surpassed. The 70s might have been a more important decade for cinema, with its gritty, groundbreaking releases, but the 80s' high output of tongue-in-cheek blockbusters, violent action movies and teen comedies was a lot more fun. From 'The Empire Strikes Back' to 'Raiders of the Lost Ark,' the 80s is a decade filled with hits that are still widely celebrated today. Of course, that's not to say there weren't a lot of stinkers in that time too, and the decade is also known for its high ratio of cheesy, badly made flops. This list takes a look at ten awesome 80s movies that time forgot. From quirky, unique comedies to exceptional action films that didn't quite gain legendary status, each of these entries are well worth a watch for any discerning movie fan.
