- The Wizard of Oz (This played at least once a year as I grew up, then later the kids got the tape. Still one of my favorites.)
- The Sound of Music (I like it, the wife likes it, and my daughter likes it. 'Nuff said.)
- Omega Man (I like Charlton and zombies. Beer had something to do with this one.)
- Star Wars (I'm not sure any movie had a bigger impact on me at the time. It still stands the test of time.)
- The Blues Brothers (These cats are just so cool.)
- Big Trouble in Little China (I also like action, martial arts, and a mystical/fantasy backdrop; this had them all.)
- Blind Fury (I liked the martial arts and Rutger was a great mix of quirky and tough.)
- The Fifth Element (Didn't like this so much in the theater but after I saw it on tape I couldn't quit.)
- What About Bob? (I don't know if it's funnier than other comedies, but for some reason I can't pass this one up.)
- From Dusk Till Dawn (Vampires, Salma dancing with a snake, Cheech, the soundtrack...this movie rocks.)
- Army of Darkness (A
sometimescorny combination of horror, comedy, fantasy, action, and adventure. What's not to like?) - John Carpenter's Vampires (I liked the book ("Vampire$" by John Steakley) and James Woods is a cool slayer. A little skinny, but he has the right attitude. The movie deviated from the novel, but what else is new.)
- Lone Wolf McQuade (Great action film with plenty of Chuck Norris buttkickery. Plus, lots of it was filmed in El Paso and I love seen places I've lived in movies. Even if the locations are out of place. Like a police stop on 'I-10' which was actually on Trans-Mountain Highway with the actual I-10 visible in the distance. Once scene was only a couple of miles from my childhood home.)
- Conspiracy Theory (You're not crazy if they are really out to get you. Right?)
