Missed The Cut

1981 Movies I watched but didn't make it into the Top 15.

Unseen Movies

1981 Movies that I have not seen yet or that are in need for a rewatch.

1981 was a Great movie year which really set the stage for the best movie Decade of all time - Raiders, Stripes and On Golden Pond led the way-The Movies Of the 1980's just plain Rocked - There hasn't been a movie decade like it before or since.

American Werewolf, Raiders, Time Bandits, and Stripes...no list for 1981 is complete without them. Very curious about SOB since I've never heard of it.

If you like satirical dark comedies - you would love SOB -
Richard Mulligan is hysterical and Robert Preston is at his best - plus Julie Andrews flashes her boobies - LOL
Great Movie.

I loved "S.O.B" and glad to see it on the list. Poor Blake Edwards never did quite get the recognition he deserved. I really need to rewatch "Chariots of Fire". I just remember that every time I walked into a room with a piano someone was playing that damn music. I'm pretty sure I have recovered since then ;)
