I wasn't very old in the 80s, just a young lad who might of gotten a few glimpses of some movies I was way to young for. Some of these might be from shows and some are movies. If you can provide me any info I would greatly appreciate it. Here are my memories:

1. Kid show? Kids are building like super bicycles and I think at the end of the show/movie one jumps it over a field goal or football field. I think there was a red bike and another bike I don't remember.

2. mad max ripoff? So there are these people journeying through desert lands and the group comes apon someone stuck in quicksand. Hes not drowning in it because he is either standing on a horse thats underneath or a buddy of his. Not sure if this is the same movie but there's like a giant bulldozer in the desert and a guy operates it? And I also remember that a girl getting separated by the group because there were monsters that lived in the quick sand underneath the ground or something and they took her under. Once again this could be like 2 or 3 mad max rip-offs.

3. Horror maybe? A group of people go into this mansion and there are like people behind the walls in another dimension and sometimes they grab members of the group. They are like wall grabbers. I think maybe they were wearing hoods/cloaks. might of been red or black. Anyways i think they exist in another dimension but come out and grab people or something.

4. ?????? Vehicles with saws on them (golf cart size vehicles?)

5. scifi horror- Aliens are like big robots. somewhere in the movie the humans figure out how to destroy them. they have to shoot the tops of their heads then they explode i think. If i remember correctly they trap a guy and girl and this buzz saw arm thing acts like its gonna cut em up. (strange I know.)

I might of filled in the gaps in certain places because these are very small and faint memories.

Thanks for the response :)

5. Moon trap, you hit the nail on the head. That is definitely it thank you.

4. was not a cartoon, but i think i've seen that cartoon before. the golf-carts with the buzz saws were more B-film gore or made for television.
the vehicles were white the saws might of been white too i don't remember.

2. Was not tremors, it was total fantasy weird immoral mad maxish 80s costumes. I think the bad guy in this movie had a bald head and he had a throne and he captured 2 girls and he was going to have them do something inappropriate. They made his character to be a weird sicko demon possessed guy. Next to his throne on left and right side had maybe like neon tubed spider webs? This maybe how he was keeping the girls captive. Once again 2. might be a mix of 2 or more movies , not sure.

Thanks again for your help.

Six Million Dollar Steve Austin fought mini robot tanks with buzzsaws. Or it may be Chopping Mall. But iirc, they involved lasers. Oh the teen memories of ma and pa video stores and renting every horror vhs tape on their shelves.

Thanks a million, that's number 2 alright.

as for number 4 im not sure if it was metal storm or not. Unless it had sand people that took someone underneath the ground then it may refer to part of number 2. I'll look up that other reference as well .

Strong in the force, this one is in 80s flicks.

You're welcome.

The 80s is literally a treasure trove of good bad b-movies and personally miss those those ma and pa VHS video stores where there was no end to these types of films to choose from to spend a Saturday with friends, soda, and pizza.

Phantasm is a great horror flick, with a haunting theme about 'fear of abandonment' and a creepy theme song.

Blockbuster and Hollywood Video never did measure up.

These flicks might be uploaded on YouTube BTW. :thumbsup:
