Ishtar (1987)

Ishtar (1987)

Revenge of the Nerds II: Nerds in Paradise (1987)

Teen Wolf Too (1987)

Teen Wolf Too (1987)

[2] The charm that young Jason Bateman exhibited on television's The Hogan Family is absent here, stifled by a painfully insipid script and direct-to-video production values. I can't think of another movie sequel that so closely mimics its predecessor. The only differences…
Street Trash (1987)

Street Trash (1987)

[7] Street Trash is grade-A schlock, precisely the kind of movie that would make your mama cry if she knew you were watching it. An unwitting liquor store owner discovers an old crate of booze and starts selling it to the local…
