Blade Runner: Director’s Cut (1982)
Read more: Blade Runner: Director’s Cut (1982)Blade Runner is simply a masterpiece. There is no other way to put it. Minus the story, which is a good Philip K. Dick one, the production design alone could hold my attention for two hours. The visuals are absolutely foreign without being beyond the realm of belief.

District 9 (2009)
Read more: District 9 (2009)As action flicks go, District 9 excels beyond measure, but leave it to a genre film with B-movie splatter gore sensibility to create an immersive experience that generates more human pathos than a hundred overcooked dramas about the holocaust or racism.

White Heat (1949)
Read more: White Heat (1949)Goodfellas’ Joe Pesci won an Oscar for his Spider-squashing portrayal of a nutso mobster but when it comes to wiping people out he pales next to his forerunner, the similarly dwarfish Cagney. Good grief, the insane Cagney is a one-man army of death.

Time flies, and it is now past time to honor some more unsavory bad guys, this time, 80’s Action style. I will concentrate on the attributes or tags of villain, bully, and sheer nastiness.

Starring Debuts #25: Michael J. Fox in Back to the Future (1985)
Read more: Starring Debuts #25: Michael J. Fox in Back to the Future (1985)Fox was a lightweight actor, his limitations exposed whenever he took on stuff with any gravity, such as a rape-objecting grunt in Casualties of War or a cokehead loser in Bright Lights, Big City.
