40 years ago today F/X was released in theaters. It’s one of the great underrated action thrillers of the 80s; sizzling with a smoky neo noir aesthetic, quirky special effects gags and the genius pairing of Bryan Brown and Brian Dennehy at the center of the action.

40 years ago today DOWN AND OUT IN BEVERLY HILLS was released in theaters. Nothing says “Cheers to Disney’s first R-rated movie!” like a photo of Paul Mazursky in a Mickey Mouse t-shirt.

Based on the true story of the 1972 plane crash in the Andes & the book it inspired, Frank Marshall's take on the survival story is equal parts harrowing & disturbing. James Newton Howard's score is transcendent and the excellent script from John Patrick Shanley is elevated by the top flight cast.
