I am contemplating having an all 80s night of movie watching. I am wanting to pick three movies that kind of have the same feel. For example, when you think of high school movies you automatically go to The Breakfast Club, Weird Science, and Sixteen Candles. What about beach movies??? I am thinking Shag, Hardbodies, and ????. I have just drawn a complete blank.
Can you help me think of some themed movies?? Action packed---romantic comedies, etc.........

I love doing a summer vacation theme around this time of year. It might be a little too early, but can be a teaser for the months to come.
Great Outdoors Summer Rental National Lampoon's Vacation

or a sports themed movie night
youngblood (1986)
vision quest (1984)
hoosiers (1986).
Great Outdoors Summer Rental National Lampoon's Vacation - that would definitely make for a great movie night gordongecko.

Faces of Death collection.
If you don't have those then perhaps you would enjoy these She-Devil with Roseanne Barr, an underrated flick IMO. The Legend of Billie Jean and My Bodyguard

For the life of me I cannot think of a third one that would have made my night complete???

Perhaps Funny Farm would have completed the trio nicely
