i don't even know if this is under the radar as it is before my time.

Battle of the Bulge.

Good war movie about a very influential time in modern history. Lots of Nazis and WW2 guns going off.

here's 2 ....VERY under the radar and wild ass movies....

Bubba Ho-Tep.....
    starring the great Bruce Campbell...who is really Elvis.....in an east Texas nursing home....fighting an Egyptian mummy that is killing residents by sucking their soul out (thru their ass).... with the help of a guy that thinks he's JFK (played by the great Ossie Davis......who is black....his skin was dyed and brain was removed /replaced with sand)  ....very weird and damn funny
https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0281686/


and the Hanzo the Razor film trilogy....
a Japanese combo of Dirty Harry and John Holmes....a detective with huge weiner that tortures himself /exercises his mammoth appendage constantly......screwing large bags of rice....and whacking it with a club....he interrogates the (always female) accused by raping them... using very elaborate techniques....
probably wait for the kids (and wife) to go to bed before throwing this bad boy in....

the 1st  film Sword of Justice.....

Im assuming most of you have seen this movie but for those who have yet to see a true 80's masterpiece.

I was chatting with a friend 2 weeks ago and he said he had never seen "Fast Times at Ridgemount High"   So I said he needs to watch asap.

 "Fast Times at Ridgemount High" Trailor
