"The Deer Hunter" is as powerful a movie as you'll ever see, it'll stick with you for awhile.  "Animal House" is my all time favorite comedy.  "Midnight Express" is a real haunting tale of international drug smuggling.  "Halloween" is probably my favorite horror movie of all time.  The original "Heaven Can Wait" was a terrific football movie.  When I think of "Superman", I think of Christopher Reeve.  "Coming Home" is a very powerful look at the consequences of war.  I can still see Olivia Newton John in those leather pants in "Grease" and who doesn't still sing along with that soundtrack?  IMO "The Buddy Holly Story" is easily Gary Busey's best film.  "Invasion of the Body Snatchers" is creepy at it's finest.
