Default Favorite '80s movies still not out on Blu-ray

Everything from guilty pleasures, cheesefests and so bad it's good to great cinema and underrated classics welcome. Just post the '80s movies you are wishing for on Blu-ray. Leeway on either end of the decade is wide and earlier films that were classics on superstations and weekend cable movie fests also welcome. If it was part of the '80s to early '90s experience this is the thread to bring up the horror of the lack of one of your favorites on blu-ray.

For me, the top that come to mind, and that i can't recall hearing about being on Blu-ray yet would be:

Some Kind of Wonderful
gotcha
TAG: The Assassination Game
Electric Dreams
Kill and Kill Again
Megaforce, the one with Barry Boswick, not the Power Rangers one
The Heavenly Kid
Remo Williams: The Adventure Begins
The Last Dragon
Disorderlies, the one with the Fat Boys
Eddie and the Cruisers
Space Camp
PCU

Those are the one's that come to mind without too much thought. Any other suggestions?

Regards,

Chris

At the top of my list is extended cut of Dune and Krull. Of course there are also lesser known titles I'd like as well such as My Science Project.

I'd love to see UHF, my favorite movie of all time, get a blu-ray release. The DVD was great, but I think it's about time we see Stanley Spadowski's Club House among other classic scenes on a new release.

Agreed on Krull and My Science Project. Also really want No Retreat No Surrender (U.S. version), Maximum Overdrive, and RAD. Recorded those off HBO and wore out the VHS tapes as a kid.

Krull
Something Wicked This Way Comes

Hot Pursuit
River's Edge
Mannequin

The Vanishing (1988) would be at the top of this list, but Criterion has hinted at a Blu-ray upgrade.

I'd also like a region A Blu-ray of Peter Weir's Witness.
