I thought we'd left the True Life Fantasies behind. I mean I was so confident I talked extensively about it in A Tale of Two Critters. But oh no. Oh no, my friends. They're back. At least the dog is adorable. Disclaimer: This blog is purely recreational and not for profit. Any material, including imagesContinue reading "Benji the Hunted (1987)"
Flight of the Navigator (1986)
I love a good cult classic, and I do believe that this is the last one of the 1980s before we start getting into the bona fide classics. So, do you think we should see if the Golden Age of the Cult Classic lets us off on a note that's as weird and wonderful asContinue reading "Flight of the Navigator (1986)"
The Great Mouse Detective (1986)
What's the best animated movie of the Disney Dark Ages? Why, it's elementary, my dear reader! The game is afoot! And other Sherlockian cliches! And also rat divorce! Oh, we are so back.

One Magic Christmas (1985)
Did I plan to post a Christmas movie during December? No. Am I thrilled that it happened? Heck yeah! But there might be a reason this doesn't get trotted out alongside The Santa Clause and Mickey's Christmas Carol because ho-ho-holy crap.

The Journey of Natty Gann (1985)

The Black Cauldron (1985)
Buckle up kids, this one's going to be a doozy. This movie's unfortunate reputation precedes it. But you don't need an oracular pig to know this is a pro-80's dark fantasy cult classic blog, so it should come as no surprise that I am one of like, five people on earth who kinda likes thisContinue reading "The Black Cauldron (1985)"
Return to Oz (1985)
Somewhere over the rainbow, children cryyyy~ 1939's The Wizard of Oz is a tough act to follow. But Disney sure did try. Is it a good film or a bad film? Well, one thing's for sure. We are definitely not in Kansas anymore. Disclaimer: This blog is purely recreational and not for profit. Any material,Continue reading "Return to Oz (1985)"
Splash (1984)
I was a huge mermaid kid. I watched that other 1980s mermaid movie five times a day until my mom got so sick of it she used my love of mermaids to get me to watch anything else. Unlike the last time I told that story, it worked with this one, and little me wasContinue reading "Splash (1984)"
Never Cry Wolf (1983)
I thought we were done with the True Life Fantasies. I guess not. Still, I'm riding pretty high after the last movie so I'm willing to give this one a fair shake. Let's see if this one moves ahead of the pack. Disclaimer: This blog is purely recreational and not for profit. Any material, includingContinue reading "Never Cry Wolf (1983)"
Something Wicked This Way Comes (1983)
Thrice the brinded cat hath mewed, thrice and once the hedge-pig whined. Harpier cries “’Tis time, ’tis time!” Time for a movie that has had my attention since I first saw it on the list. I am so, so excited for this one - it's getting spooky in here! So open, locks, whoever knocks. ByContinue reading "Something Wicked This Way Comes (1983)"
