Excellent Medusa art, warrior!

I own Sorority House Massacre UK dvd, Savage Streets & The Gate scandi dvd´s,
976-Evil US VHS tape and Busted Up, Light Blast, Graveyard Shift and Stitches Finnish VHS tapes.

Rolling Vengeance and Certain Fury were released here back in the day but those tapes are pretty rare.

Hey, this is the movie i always knew as Raiders Of Death. I used to have a large, hard-cardboard display
of this one. Never knew it was also known as Land Of Doom.

Firstly,
Shout out to Gordongecko for your Movie Poster selection of "Adventures in Babysitting". Great drawing/painting.

Stellar work. Is this the artist who produced the BTTF posters?!

I like the "Wizard"poster for it features many things 80s- the skateboards (anybody remember gleaming the cube?), the old-school NES characters and the 80s outfits...

Check out my movie review on it at: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iCgtxaSH5e0

Yes it is the same artist seankmicheal - drew struzan http://www.drewstruzan.com/illustrated/portfolio/ great poster art and a great artist,I only purchased the blu ray for babysitter a few months back,really fun flick.

Dig that view to a kill soundtrack cover art terdnthepoolggb,can't remember much from view to a kill,not seen it since it's first release,I can remember Christopher walken's character in it and of course the theme music.
I know they said roger Moore seemed to be a bit past it at that time to be playing bond.

I'll have to check it out again sometime.

I just checked out your review for the wizard sean,great review,I've never actually seen the movie but I kept thinking i remember Christian Slater being in it then I thought no I must be imagining it,but I see he does appear,never realised beau bridges was in it as well.

Never seen this or his other popular hit movie little monsters,I think the only thing I've seen Fred savage in is the movie vice versa and the series the wonder years.

I'll have check the wizard out at some point!

The posters and video-sleeves for a whole bunch of 80's teen sex comedies certainly knew how to draw
the attention of its target-audience. For example :

 -

German poster design for Hot Splash (1988)

 -

And the Spanish video-sleeve artwork for the same movie (similar to the one we had here in Holland back in the day)

It's another one of those movies that seemed to have vanished without a trace, unfortunately.

Here's a couple more that definitely knew how to titillate the mind of teenage boys growing up in the 80's :
