Stranger Things, thrill like it's 1983 again!
« on: July 28, 2016, 10:06:42 AM »
If like me you're a sucker for 80's flicks in the style of ET, Goonies, Daryl, Close Encounters of the Third Kind, The Thing, Starman and many more...
...chances are you'll like Netflix's Stranger Things as much as I do!
I'm at episode 3 (only 8 episodes for the season 1) and I love it so far!
It's a constant tribute to all the movies listed above and many more,... it's "freaks and geeks" meets Stephen King... and they nailed 1983 sooooo right!
The synth music by Survive is also pretty pretty cool.

I thought it was ok, was hoping for a little bit more nostalgic feeling to be honest. I dragged it out over a week, it didn't capture me as much as i had hoped for!
all i need is ... PONG - and a select few others: TOUCH ME, DRAGON'S LAIR, JOUST, ROBOTRON, MR DO, SAN FRANCISCO RUSH THE ROCK!!!
