Comedy movies from the 80s

A repaired Good Guy, a frightened boy and a very bad warranty.

An eight-year-old left at home, a house full of traps and a film that still asks whether independence can coexist with forgiveness.

A man, a volcano and a very English-sized question about how to live.

A corporate raider, a negotiated week, and a Cinderella story wrapped in Prada — but Edward Lewis is the reason the engine keeps running.

A catalogue of domestic mayhem, held together by one man’s stubborn attempt at fatherhood.

A seaside hotel, a grandmother on watch and a boy who discovers the grown-ups are hiding something terrible.

Handymen, Graboids and small‑town stubbornness — Tremors is a monster movie with a practical heart.
