CBR's 10 Great 80s Movies Your Mom Has Never Heard Of
"The 80s was an excellent period for movies of all genres: horror, romance, action, etc. While marked heavily by the period's iconography, slang, and fashion, a vast array of these 1980s movie sensations remain relevant today. Movies such as 'Pretty in Pink,' 'Top Gun,' and 'Dirty Dancing' are referenced in modern films and television shows because of their impact on Gen X, but what about those movies that slipped under their radar? Many fantastic movies filmed in the 1980s didn't garner the success they deserved, whether because of advertising issues, a strange subject matter, or just being ahead of their time. Whatever the reason, these unknown films deserve a chance to shine." - cbr.com
