Cheesy ‘80s sci-fi movies are perfect for watching with friends. The 1980s have produced some of the best movies of all time, and the era is often considered to be a launching point for the increasing popularity of the sci-fi genre. However, some titles haven’t had the same success as others. Many audience members now love plenty of ‘80s box office flops, mainly because they are receiving the much-needed appreciation that they deserve years after their initial release.
Science fiction is often perceived as deeply serious and full of intricate details that need to be completely accurate. However, this isn’t always true, and sci-fi comedies are incredibly successful because they focus on humor over factual information. Cheesy movies are loved because the titles don’t take themselves seriously, so when combined with sci-fi, they quickly become some of the best films to kick back and enjoy with friends.
