The Warriors is the best 70's movie ever.

I've not seen that one. The Wicker Man and The House That Dripped Blood are my favourite 70's films Posted by Princess Pooh (Member # 5798) on :

Helen is right, Wicker Man was one of the neatest movies ever. I was sad that the Nicholas Cage version didn't make him the moral man that the original had. It gave that movie depth.

Anybody ever see "Race with the Devil" with Peter Fonda and Warren Oates? (1975) Pretty good flick.

Blazing Saddles
Young Frankenstein.
Never underestimate the power of a good comedy.

I love Warriors so much that I even got the PS2 game.

Watch Out We're Mad.
Saw it when I was a kid (my family and I still talk about this film), managed to find it on VHS, still so funny, laughed till I cried.

The Warriors - all the way ! ! !
Posted by intothesea13 (Member # 6353) on :
My favorite is Foul Play with Goldie Hawn and Chevy Chase. The fight scene between Burgess Meredith and Rachel Roberts is hilarious! Also Halloween. I'm still waiting for Michael Myers to come kill me!

Warriors is the perfect 70's NEW YORK movie...even though its the 70's, you never can tell what decade the movie takes place in......
I mean in the 70's New York and its borough's were some seriously crime-infested cesspools, and that movie showcased how dangerous it was getting around (albeit in a futuristic over-the-top setting).
I gotta vote best movie of the 70's as either ALIEN or Apocalypse Now.....

There are so many good ones, and I guess by genre, I'd personally pick
Best Horror: "The Exorcist" Best Drama: "The Godfather", runner-up: "Rocky" Best Thriller: "Taxi Driver" Best Comedy: "Blazing Saddles" Best Musical: "Grease" Best Animated: "Charlotte's Web" or "Jungle Book"
Posted by The Horned King (Member # 2691) on :
The Exorcist quickly came to mind, so I guess I'll pick that as my favorite '70s movie.
Captain Howdy made me do it.
Posted by ISIS (Member # 1780) on :

Brubaker
Posted by bandit (Member # 6296) on :

The best one? No doubt about it:1979 ALIEN

Oh yes, that's the greatest 70's movie of all time. It should have won an oscar. Posted by journey (Member # 7316) on :
All things considered, I'd have to say Apocalypse Now.
Posted by Saint_in_London (Member # 2575) on :
I saw this guy of Logans Run fame in a pub about 30 mins from where I live - just outside London few months ago Michael Anderson,
Been in there loads of times and didnt know he was a regualar, his getting on a bit apparently he likes to sing a little bit in there, not on a mic or anything, just from the comfort of his chair, I have a very brief chat with him.
