MemberOvomorphJanuary 18, 2012Someone on here is named "Altered States", which to me is one of the most underrated sci fis ever... here is my top 10 list of sci fis from the 80's
10) Videodrome - Gotta love Cronenberg, one of the few directors that could do an Alien film.
9) Brazil - fun crazy world.
8) RoboCop - One of the top typecastings ever done!
7) The Terminator - Cameron's best work.
6) Outland - Detective/Mystery in which Sci Fi is the backdrop.
5) Heavy Metal - Could see this remade with todays fx.
4) The Empire Strikes Back - The best one of all of them.
3) Aliens - Xeno baby!
2) The Thing - How many times can you watch this one? Top notch monster, suspense, fear, and some of the wittiest dialog...
Fuchs: "I need to talk to you. It's important. Meet me outside in five minutes. "
MacReady: "It's 40 below zero outside. "
1) Dune - Herbert's imagination materialized. Riding worms, Bene Gesserit, Space Guild, the Weirding Way. And Sting?
1) Blade Runner - This should be a straight number 1, but it's a tie. This movie is about everything!
I cheated, there are 2 number 1s. Here are a few more that did not make it..
Altered States
Alien Nation
Spaceballs
