For Fartismo Hitchcock

There has been a complaint from a reader that we haven't put anything new up lately. Let's call her E. Stalica. No, that's too obvious. Elizabeth S. Yes, that's better. This person has requested a post on a "more interesting" topic. Taking into account the likes and dislikes of this individual, here's a "more interesting" post.

A Selection of Films With Prolific 80's Music Stars as Actors

by Jeff Pollack

We'll start off with the gimme.

The Wedding Singer - Billy Idol

Such a gimme.

The Wiz - Michael Jackson

This one is chock full 'o 80's musicians, so take your pick. MJ came to mind first.

Oliver and Company - Billy Joel

Dogs and cats, living together, mass hysteria!

Mars Attacks - Tom Jones

His music kills the Martians. Hmmmm.....

Duets - Huey Lewis

Gwenyth Paltrow also sings in this one. Hmmmm..........

Dune - Sting

I got so wrapped up in this movie the first time I watched it as a kid it kept me up until 3 in the morning. I was a huge nerd. Still am.

Labyrinth - David Bowie

You freaky Bowie.

This is by no means an exhaustive list and only includes movies I've seen and could get off the top of my head on a Tuesday afternoon. Feel free to suggest additions.

Ok Stalica, chew on that for a while.
