Favorite Movies from the 80's that nobody seems to talk about anymore

[Larry T]

Miracle Mile

Great movie, kind of has a Twilight Zone vibe to it.

 

[Mr Pink]

Repo Man (1984 )

 

[dascoyne]

Absolute Beginners (1986)

David Bowie, Ray Davies ... and a 27 year old Sade!

Opens with an impressively choreographed 3 min tracking shot (off the top of my head I can recall one cut hidden in a camera flash). A later Janet Jackson music video was a direct ripoff ... well, they were both directed by Julien Temple so I guess that doesn't count.

I still like the the "two dollars" jokes in Not Another Teen Movie
