I've been catching up on and rewatching some lately. Legend, Highlander, The Never ending Story. What are some others that are similar? And why do 80s movies seem to hit different than other decades?

Have you watched it as an adult? I loved that movie growing up and watched it a few years ago. Good lord, is it messed up…

Made all the better. Dark fantasy at its best.

I really do not like the faces in this movie. Hard pass.

I've only seen the Netflix remake but I really enjoyed it. Would you recommend going back and watching the original?

It's not a remake, it's a prequel. So you should definitely watch the film.

I didn't even know there was a remake, so yes

The Netflix is not a remake, but a prequel.

Definitely watch the original as well. They are both great
