JackWhite1328: No problem. Here is my little list of films from the 80s and 90s that sunk into my soul:
1. Hell (1994)
2. Showgirls (1995)
3. Back to the Future 1,2,3 (1985, 1989, 1990)
4. The Goonies (1985)
5. Flight of the Navigator (1986)
6. Dirty Dancing
Ah yes, you have different tastes to me. BTTF and goonies are ok. I would have listed it swartz films, lethal weapon, aliens, apocalypse now, blade runner, die hard, hellraiser, scarface, terminator, Beverly Hills cop, coming to America, untouchables. Watched loads of films in 80s and 90s, was really a heyday for tv and film (and gaming and music). I would need to look at each one though as lots from 70s as well. Heck it’s all getting remade now (generally very badly) which says a lot.
Cannibal Holocaust 1980 in order to understand modern "journalists".

The Critters series. Sci-fi, b movie comedy involving murderous little hedgehog aliens.
Ghoulies. horror comedy with little monsters and a guy resurrecting his dead warlock dad.

Cutters Way

The Fallen 1998 Denzel washington murder mystery with possession.

Angel Heart

The Ninth Gate 1999 and Frantic 1988 both of those films have similar elements.Frantic is where A guy gets drawn into a conspiracy after his wife goes missing.The ninth gate is where the main character is tasked with finding some supernatural books in france which gets him chased.

It'd be easier to suggest films not to watch, unless you're going to roll up with friends to riff them to death, seeing as the 80s and 90s were full of hits and the Disney Animation Renaissance.
Such as:
Mac and Me, a shameless ET knockoff.

Maximum Overdrive: What happens when Steven King is coked off his rocker.

[url=https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Apple_(1980_film)]A retelling of a biblical allegory on crank.[/url] Set in the future year of 1994!

[url=https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Howard_the_Duck_(film)]Howard the Duck[/url], because we all want to see a grotesque duck animitronic get horny, right?

Nukie. Another ET Knockoff.

The Garbage Pail Kids Movie, because trying to base a movie off a series of grossout trading cards was going to work.

Troll 2. No trolls will be featured during the feature presentation.

...And that's just covering the ones that Wikipedia bothered to list.
