oh yes... my fav.

How has nobody mentioned Forbidden Planet? I know it's not quite 60's - 80's but it's pretty close.

Also, Akira.

everything everybody else said.

except avoid Short Circuit and Cocoon. they're pretty weak films, imo. unless you're like, 5..

stalker is definitely one of my favourites

it's horrible that a lot of people died making it

  Quote

Many people involved in the film production had untimely deaths, attributing this to the long and arduous shooting schedule of the film as well as toxins present at the shooting locations. Vladimir Sharun recalls:[3]

 

We were shooting near Tallinn in the area around the small river Pirita with a half-functioning hydroelectric station. Up the river was a chemical plant and it poured out poisonous liquids downstream. There is even this shot in Stalker: snow falling in the summer and white foam floating down the river. In fact it was some horrible poison. Many women in our crew got allergic reactions on their faces. Tarkovsky died from cancer of the right bronchial tube. And Tolya Solonitsyn too. That it was all connected to the location shooting for Stalker became clear to me when Larisa Tarkovskaya died from the same illness in Paris.

Heavy Metal

Dune

Brazil

The Abyss

The Fly (Remake)

i've been wanting to re-watch this for a while, it was a favorite of mine as a child, even though it scared me a bit. but i have not seen it since probably 10 years old, so i have no idea what i would think now.

Time Bandits is amazing.

I had a similar experience, and it's just as good now.

Solaris 1972

Akira

Dune

THX 1138

Flight of the Navigator (good ole' harmless Disney films!)

Also, I recommend you watch the last minute of this Futureworld (1976) clip, where Yul Brynner makes out with Blythe Danner in a bizarre and awkward manner.

Futureworld is hilarious.

Just got a copy of this and finished up watching it.

No doubt inspired the BoC sound.
