    After Hours and Elvira are so much more deserving to move on than Conan and Three Amigos, in my estimation...

    I can't believe Elvira has so many votes. And to think I almost didn't nominate it. It's one of my guilty pleasure films. Wish it could continue on a little further.
    Only the gentle are ever really strong.

    After Hours is a movie that stands out vividly in my mind. I've only seen it once and it was at my grandmother's house in the middle of the night. I started watching about 5 minutes into it so I didn't know the title. It was years before I found out what the movie was called. This should definitely have more votes.
    Wanted: Human skin edition of The Book of the Dead. Will accept PC copy.
