Serial 1980, R)
What a hilarious movie! Especially for those who remember the 70s or just watch a lot of old movies (like me). My favourite part of the movie was Christopher Lee's small role, it was one of the funniest things I'd ever seen! The other actors in the movie are really great as well. The movie is about people who follow the 70s fads to an absurd length, and the main character played by Mull, is sick of it all. So funny. I highly recommend seeing this movie. |

The Monster Club 1981, Unrated)
This is a really fun movie, perfect for watching on Halloween too. It's one of those movies that's got three or four different stories which are told, in this movie, by Vincent Price, who plays a vampire. Plus, there's some really cool Halloween music from a couple of bands that perform in the movie as well. And, I loved the ending! |

The Apple 1980, PG)
This film sets the story of Adam, Eve, and the apple in the 70s with two musicians who are tempted to become stars. I really enjoyed this crazy movie, it's from 1980, but it's still very 70s. It's as if the 70s lasted till 1994, and then the music industry took over the world. It also gave me a 1984 (George Orwell) vibe. I loved the ending, it was so cool. If you like weird musicals, you should really check out this little film. |

New Year's Evil 1980, R)
This movie appears to be just another slasher flick in the beginning, but at the climax the killer is revealed, and it makes for a real great plot twist. I'm giving this movie four stars for the ending mostly, but the rest of the movie is alright too, it's just that the end is the most suspenseful part, and the final scene is perfect. I enjoyed this movie, and if you like slasher flicks you'll enjoy it too. Plus, there's some good bands playing in the movie too. |

Man with Bogart's Face 1980, PG)
At first the movie is really funny, as it goes along the laughs are more sporadic, but the mystery is pretty interesting to try to figure out. I couldn't believe how much the main character played by Robert Sacchi looked like Humphrey Bogart, it was amazing. Overall a good movie, but I think it could have been better, more excitement and more laughs would have helped. |

Caligula 1979, R)
This spill over from the 70s stars some great actors, but it borders on porn, so if you want to watch it beware of that. Actually i think there's an edited version now too. Anyway, the story is pretty interesting and the actors do well with what they've got, but I wouldn't encourage anyone to see this. |

Village People - Can't Stop the Music 1980, PG)
I don't know why other people have given this movie a low rating, it's not that bad. Sure the movie is about the Village People, but that doesn't mean the movies not funny and enjoyable. It's pretty cheesy, but not in a bad way. I wasn't a fan of the Village People before, but I now think they're not as bad as I thought they were. Anyway, I sorta liked this movie, and if you like early 80s music and fun cheesy 80s movies, you should see this movie. |

American Gigolo 1980, R)
Am I the only one who doesn't find Gere attractive? His acting in this movie is pretty one dimensional. What I liked about this movie was the story, especially the ending which was the most exciting part of the whole movie, and I loved the cinematography, this is a sharp looking picture. If only it weren't so long, and they'd have gotten a cuter male lead, this would have been a fantastic movie. |

Nothing Personal 1980, PG)
Sutherland and Somers try to save the seals using their legal know-how to find loopholes. That may sound boring, but there is some action and romance injected into the film as well. It works good enough, but it still could have been better. If you're interested in activism movies you will like this one. |

Hopscotch 1980, R)
Although it was funny how Landau's character made the government look like idiots, I almost sided with them in the end. Is he really jeopardizing national security just for fun? The movie isn't very clear on that. Half of the movie was pretty boring, though, there were a few scenes which were funny. Overall, an okay movie. |

Prom Night 1980, R)
If you loved Halloween and Saturday Night Fever, and wished they could put them together somehow, and maybe incorporate a revenge theme, you need to see this movie! Frankly, I thought it was a little silly and predictable, and I don't really care for Curtis as an actor, so that doesn't help my opinion of this movie either. Overall, the movie is alright, but it could be scarier. |

Where the Buffalo Roam 1980, R)
If you're either interested in the life of Hunter Thompson or are studying journalism you will enjoy seeing this movie, but if you're just wanting to see a comedy you'll be disappointed like I was. There are a lot of outrageous things that happen in the movie, but most of it isn't funny. Plus, I didn't like the ending either, it doesn't tell you much of anything. |

Humanoids from the Deep (Monster) 1980, R)
An 80s version of a 50s B-movie from Roger Corman! It doesn't fail to in its promise to show sea monsters terrorizing a small town and raping the women, but it does fail in the story department. If it weren't for the gore and nudity this movie would be completely boring, and even with those intact it's not a great movie. Overall it's an okay movie, not horrible but not good either. |

Coast to Coast 1980, PG)This run of the mill road movie is slightly funny and mostly annoying. Cannon is especially annoying, she makes me think she really was crazy. The story is predictable, I knew the end within the first ten minutes. If you like road movies with annoying people like Dyan Cannon, you'll like this movie. |

Terror Train 1980, R)
Gee this reminds me of Prom Night... Wait, a minute, didn't that come out the same year? What were they doing? Making both of these movies at the same time? I don't know, but I'd recommend seeing one or the other but not both of these movies, since they are pretty much the same, and Curtis stars in both as well. |
