Sweet action for kids 'n' cretins. Marjoram and capers.

Harrison Ford(?) looks kind of like Bono. :yuck:
Yeah that's a weird attempt at Deckard, if that's who one of those Bono guys is supposed to be. Batty, Pris, and Rachael look somewhat better.

Funny coincidence – I’m halfway through Blade Runner (The Final Cut, which I’ve seen about 100 times) as I stumbled across this post. Maybe my favorite movie.

The Deadly Spawn (1983) A flesh-eating space creature with no eyes, multiple heads and a mouth with hundreds of teeth finds it’s way into a family’s basement and spawns about a thousand little slugs, also with mouths full of teeth. Big brother and school friends working on a science project fight off the intruders with the help of little brother, who is a horror movie buff with knowledge of fx and explosives. One of the highlights is when the creatures crash a little old lady’s tea party. This low budget gem is funny, charming and extremely gory, and is certainly one of the great under appreciated sci-fi horrors of the 80s. I rented this often as a teenager, the VHS had the alternate title “Return of the Aliens Deadly Spawn” for what I assume would be to trick someone into thinking this was an Alien sequel. No tricks necessary, this is B-Movie Gold.

Xtro (1983) Ultra gory, bizarre Brit Sci-Fi/Horror. A ten year old boy is convinced his father was zapped into the sky three years ago, though his mother insists he walked out on them. When dad finally returns, it is in the form of a hideous alien, who mutilates several people before “impregnating” a woman which results of him being born in full grown human form several hours later! Claiming he has no recollection of the last three years, he moves back in with son and wife, who now has a live-in boyfriend. His plan is to take his son back with him, and he gives him the power to make anything he imagines come true. The boy uses this to make some of his toys come to life and murder an old lady in his apartment who was pissing him off! Not to be overlooked is the sexy au pair, played by future Bond Girl Maryam d’Abo (The Living Daylights) who delivers some A+ nudity. That, with multiple gross-out gore fx make this a must see sleaze classic. Spawned two sequels.

Hellblazers (2022) Set in the 80's, a satanic cult conjures a demon that terrorizes a small town. With appearances by Tony Todd, Adrianne Barbeau, Meg Foster and Billy Zane, but it was Bruce Dern who took the cake as a grouchy old man who described the incident to the sheriff. Not great, but you could do worse than this Tubi Original timewaster.

Habit (1995) Larry Fessenden writes, directs, and stars in this gritty New York indie about a 20-something drinker who meets a woman at a party who likes to bite him and drink his blood during sex. His already unstable life takes a turn for the worse. I liked this one.

Olivia (1983) A girl sees her prostitute mother murdered by a John through a keyhole. 15 years later she's in an abusive marriage, prompting her to sneak out in the day and turn tricks of her own, but some of the tricks she has the urge to murder! Director Uli Lommel and his beautiful wife Suzanna Love made a handful of low budget films together in the 80s, including VHS classic the Boogeyman. Some good nudity in this one from Suzanna.

Leptirica aka The She-Butterfly (1973) Yugoslavion made-for-TV vampire oddity about a wheat mill terrorized by the region's local bloodsucker, and a young man who runs away with his bride-to-be despite her father's objection. See how the two stories come together, it's only 65 minutes. The girl was exceptionally pretty.

Cruising (1980) Al Pacino is an undercover cop in New York City trying to catch a serial killer who pulls his victims from gay bars, and the lifestyle begins to take a mental toll. With Paul Sorvino, Karen Allen, Joe Spinell, James Remar, and an unforgettable depiction of police brutality when a large black man in a jockstrap and cowboy boots enters an interrogation room to rough up a suspect. Directed by WIlliam Friedkin (The Exorcist), and cool soundtrack which included Willie Nile and The Germs. This had some pretty explicit stuff for a mainstream movie of its era.

yeah, Bruce Dern's character was in a wheelchair. Meg Foster didn't age well, I thought she didn't look too good in a Rob Zombie movie that I probably saw 5 years ago. There was a younger cast that carried the load, all the older names had about 2 scenes each, probably filmed their shit in a day or 2 and got out.

Found the pull quote for the blu ray release!

Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a rolling hoop
Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a ton of lead
Wiggle - you can raise the dead

Hall of Fame rack on her for sure. Would you believe I didn't like her when i was a kid? I'm pretty sure it was because of her villainess performance in Creepshow.
