'80s All Over

August 1984


Listen Later

The controversies just keep coming.

Maybe it was something in the air, but things were weird this month. Bo Derek made a movie so bad it broke Cannon’s distribution deal with MGM. A long-in-development property finally made it to the screen and no one noticed. John Cassavetes released his last major work, Sean Connery showed up wearing Cate Blanchett’s outfit from Thor: Ragnarok, and Jamie Lee Curtis lost a bet and had to play love scenes with C. Thomas Howell. You want Michael Landon making a Bible allegory about himself? Or naked Clint Eastwood slathered in baby oil? Or a flamingo attack to wrap up the jolliest naked-Tarzan riff ever made? Well, you’re getting it anyway, plus a fistful of PG-13 films and Dr. Emilio Lizardo. Join your regular hosts John FilmNerd 2.0 and John Phillycheesesteak for a trip into the 8th dimension for August of 1984.
