From Aliens to Amadeus, get your fill of '80s nostalgia with this
movie bible of all things bold, bizarre, and boisterous. We've
diligently compiled a list of the most influential films of the
1980s that's sure to please popcorn gobblers and highbrow
chin-strokers alike. Adventurous, excessive, and experimental, '80s
cinema saw moviegoers get their kicks from pictures as wide-ranging
as Blade Runner, Gandhi, and Blue Velvet. Science fiction, horror,
and action emerged as the defining genres of the decade, with
non-human characters like E.T. winning the hearts of millions, and
movies such as Ghostbusters and Back to the Future fused comedy and
sci-fi to the delight of audiences everywhere. Inside this '80s
encyclopedia each movie masterpiece is profiled with stills, a
synopsis, and cast, crew, and technical listings. With high-concept
Hollywood blockbusters, early CGI, and brilliant special effects,
the 1980s saw the invention of a new reality, a movie-world so
convincingly real-no matter now far-fetched-that spectators could
not help but immerse themselves in it. About the series Bibliotheca
Universalis - Compact cultural companions celebrating the eclectic
TASCHEN universe!
