Hardbodies (1984)

In this sun-soaked comedy, three middle-aged men rent a beach house to relive their youth and enlist the help of a charming beach bum, Scotty Palmer (Grant Cramer), to teach them how to pick up women. As Scotty shows them the ropes of the “hardbodies” lifestyle, hilarity ensues as the men navigate awkward romantic entanglements and party antics. Hardbodies is a lighthearted, fun romp that embraces the carefree spirit of the ‘80s with plenty of laughs and beachside shenanigans.

I’m Gonna Git You Sucka (1988)

Jack Spade (Keenen Ivory Wayans) comes home to the ghetto and finds his brother dead from a gold chain overdose. With the help of his hero, John Slade (Bernie Casey), and a team of washed-up crime fighters, Spade declares vengeance on Mr. Big (John Vernon), the white crime leader responsible for selling gold chains on the streets. But Spade realizes that he must take matters into his own hands to finish the job in this zany spoof of 1970s blaxploitation films.
