Just got done watching The Lost Boys. Such an awesome film. Where has this dig been all my life? I saw it once before that, but I must've fallen asleep at the wheel. But a rewatch sealed it for me. My top 5 this year all consists of genre and horror classics. Those dominate the 80s.
This is also a really good year. Maybe starts to taper around #7, but still good enough and the Top 5 is really tight. The only category that sucks is supporting actor which blows, past Freeman and Goodman.
