Older Movies That Are Forgotten

Hate to say, in another thread about Peaky Blinders, Blacklist thread, both of which are a great series, but I get tired after a few views. Thus I needed a break.

So I surfed Netflix and found "Awakenings". One of the better Robin Williams obscure films. Not a fan of Robert De Niro, but a good flick from 1992.

I watched it a long time ago. Glad I found it again. I like historical films and a feel good or bad story.

Recommended.

What other hidden gems are out there...

We all have our preferences. This is a generic, not niche classic ala Rocky Horror Picture Show nor Monty Pythons stuff nor Casablanca.

Yeah, it was an entertaining flick.

Another rock star who did a good turn as a villain was Gene Simmons in Runaway.

Yea. Watching it again I was reminded why Emilio Estevez never became a bigger star. He just has no screen presence and is not a good actor.

Mick Jagger was good in it. Surprised he hasn’t taken more acting gigs.

Then Anthony Hopkins enters the movie and makes Estevez look like a high school stage actor.

I assume that in real life Estevez is a joke-cracking smart ass, and as long as he basically plays himself in a movie (Young Guns, Freejack, Stakeout), he's fine.

All very good movies. Not sure where they're available.

I'll probably think of more. This was just off the top of my head.

So far I re-watched Drive and Smokin’ Aces. Both were as entertaining as I originally remembered.
Smokin Aces really cool.

I watched this movie quite a while ago called "Divorcing Jack". Real neat story with a big plot twist. You dont hear it mentioned anywhere.

Another fun one to watch is "Freeway" with Reese Witherspoon, Keifer Sutherland, Dan Hedaya and Brooke Shields.

Last but not least is an awesome horror movie called "The Town that Dreaded Sundown." Has one of the creepiest scenes in any horror movie.

Runaway was the first movie I thought of when I saw this thread. Another Gene Simmons bad guy movie is Wanted Dead or Alive with Rutger Hauer. I remember loving that movie as a kid... "**** the bonus".

That’s an 80s movie. Not 90s. But classic.

Kinda funny, this scene would never get made today along with scenes in Weird Science.

“Urban people of color are scary!”. Was always good for laughs in the 80s. 😂
