Movies of the 80s: 'Foolin' Around' with Gary Busey
There are people who just don't fit particular molds. For instance, you likely would not associate professional wrestler Hulk Hogan with Academy Award level drama. You likely would not view the brilliant Steve Buscemi as the star of a teen comedy. And, if you are aware of actor Gary Busey, you'd be unlikely to cast him as the lead actor in a romantic comedy. Though Busey has proven to be a dynamic and often charismatic film presence, his on screen persona and his idiosyncratic style of acting don't really translate to being the lead in a rom-com.

Movies of the 80s: 'Without Warning' a Goofy Forgotten bit of 80s Sci-Fi
"The Alien Terror is Here on Earth" Though almost completely forgotten and being not a very good movie in general, there is an unexpectedly awards heavy pedigree to the 1980 sci-fi cheapie "Without Warning." The cast and crew of "Without Warning" carries 9 Academy Awards, 5 Golden Globes, 3 BAFTAs, and a SAG Award. Of course, no one won anything for their work in "Without Warning," and few had won anything before making "Without Warning," but it's still notable and unusual for such a forgotten movie.
