The Wraith (1986)

A vengeful, handsome spirit dressed in an S&M outfit races the gang responsible for his death.  As he blows them up one by one, you start to wonder, what's with the arm braces he leaves everywhere?  Aaron and Biggs set out to these questions and more. And believe us, Lady Luck left us a lot of questions to answer with this 80's revenge/thriller/sci-fi/drama:  The Wraith.

Top Gun (1987)

We start season two with perhaps the most known movie of the 80's:  Top Gun! Maverick and Goose enter the Top Gun program for the best of the best fighter pilots. Along the way they find action, love, and hot sweaty volleyball. Biggs and Aaron focus on the movie being a grandfather of many tropes, the soundtrack, the A-list cast, and it's place in the rise of militaristic films. All that, plus a lot of random tangents.
