Films: As with any other decade in our modern cinema influenced culture, the 80's had films that reflected the style and changing attitudes of their generation. I have some fun memory's of watching such films as 'Desperately seeking Susan' or 'War Games' and 'Ferris Bulers day off', and some of being scared witless by 'Phantasam' and 'Hellraiser'. Also just being plain confused by 'Dune'. Never the less, films throughout the 80's obviously played an important part in pop-culture, particularly with the new home video systems (all billion that were not even slightly compatible!) Since people were watching and enjoying more films than ever before, as shown by the enormous range and variety of films made in this decade. There have been many great films before and after, but still some of the most colorful and interesting belong to the 80's. Maybe its the plot or the characters, or just the humongous gravity defying hair and gaudy lycra? But they totaly couldn't have happened in any other time zone, so here they are now in the 80's Vortex 1980's Movie Review Hall of Fame: Culture studies of films and types of films: Computers - What 1980s Hollywood made them Special offers: |
