No mention of Dune? I find it hard to watch now, to the point where I have switched it off at the line "they tried and died" a couple of times.

I loved Dune when it came out, then I read the book. I've never been able to watch it again! Or the SciFi mini series.

There were a couple of bad films in the list, but most are classics and hold up well.

I still very much enjoy watching Ferris Bueller.

A little off topic, I lent one of our apprentices my copy of "Ice Cold in Alex", he thought it was a good war film - not bad coming from a German youth.

Was Highlander 2 an 80's film?
That was unwatchable.

You've reminded me of Poltergiest though. Am sure that would still freak me out lol

Also while we're on horrors The Shining (1980) The Fly (1986) Nightmare on Elm Street (1984) Hellraiser (1987) Aliens (1986) and the Stephen Kings ones The Fog, The Thing...
