Mostly As

If you chose mostly As, you should check out Back to the Future. Released in 1985, Back to the Future is a classic adventure movie directed by Robert Zemeckis. The rollicking sci-fi flick follows 17-year-old Marty McFly as he is sent back 30 years into the past. Action-packed and a whole lot of fun, Back to the Future, and its cast of quirky characters, is iconic for a reason. Rewatch it time and time again with a big ol’ popcorn bucket.

Mostly Bs

If you chose mostly Bs, you’ve got to sink your teeth into The Lost Boys. Joel Schumacher directed this cult classic movie. When two brothers and their mom move to a beach town in California, they soon find that it’s infested with vampires. Over-the-top and oozing in 1980s glam goth goodness, The Lost Boys serves up angst in spades. Be warned: These vamps are no Cullens.

Mostly Cs

If you chose mostly Cs, you definitely love Prince, so what are you waiting for? Watch (or rewatch) Purple Rain. The semi-autobiographical film spins the tale of Prince as The Kid, a musician in Minneapolis who finds refuge in his art. The 1984 film follows The Kid as he struggles to find love and acceptance.

Mostly Ds

If you chose mostly Ds, grab some tissues and watch Dead Poets Society. Starring Robin Williams as charismatic English teacher John Keating, Dead Poets Society is perfect for those who love rainy days, poetry, warm tea and the slogan “carpe diem.” Despite being released decades ago in 1989, the movie still captures feelings of growing up, finding yourself and young friendship.

Mostly Es

If you chose mostly Es, add Friday the 13th to your watchlist. Released in 1980, Friday the 13th is one of the decade’s most iconic slashers. When a group of teenagers head to Camp Crystal Lake in the summer, things go… very wrong. A certain masked killer named Jason may just be the cause.

Mostly Fs

If you chose mostly Fs, watch 1985’s coming-of-age classic The Breakfast Club. Written and directed by John Hughes, who birthed many of the decade’s beloved teenage films, the story follows five totally different high schoolers who all get Saturday detention. Are you the brain, athlete, basket case, princess or criminal? Now that’s a quiz for another day.
