You can tell the story was being written as filming happened and the music is a bit jarring, but the direction is good and there's plenty of stunts to keep the momentum.

Chuck Steel: Night of the Trampires 2018
Some questionable humor is outnumbered by the over the top 80s action movie tropes and lols. The landlord character really put me back into the moment.

The Hidden 1987
A thoroughly 1987 movie, 'The Hidden' stars Kyle MacLachlan and his perfect coif chasing the murderer of his partner and family. The story has elements of Carpenter's 'The Thing', MacLachlan's uneasy portrayal, and the worst part of the synth score from the 'The Terminator'.
If you're a fan of John Carpenter's sci-fi movies, 'Invasion of the Body Snatchers', or a stripper shooting a pump shotgun at cops, this movie might be for you.

Dredd 2012
This isn’t the movie Mega City 1 deserves, but it is the movie Mega City 1 needs. A violent, dark dystopia wherein Judges enforce the law with no remorse. In other words, fairly faithful to the comics I’ve read.
The best comparison in terms of plot, tone, and production design is the first half of The Raid before all of the hand to hand combat began.
A good double feature with the 1987 Robocop, this is too dark and violent for many.
