I don't know it's name or who is in it. The movie is about to ultra "hip" 80's club owners (I think) who are offered a job in Nebraska (or somewhere). When they get there it's like America in the 50's but later they learn it's actually communist Russia.

Anyone know it? I love cheesy ass 80's flicks. Just watched "Spies like Us" and it got me thinking about this movie but I can't place the name.

Twice Upon a Time.
Good luck finding it. I'm linking the first 20 minutes.
It used to run on HBO and there are two versions. The HBO version has swearing, and trust me, it's worth it.
Produced by George Lucas and basically forgotten about. I have a version on VHS, and the LD is worth a boatload.

The Hidden.
I think it's a very well executed sci-fi horror film. Worth a watch and a bit more common to find.

And if you really just want an over the top cheeseball flick, Born to Fight. Although this scene is a spoiler, it's just fucking awesome for all the wrong reasons.

The Burbs is, perhaps, the most perfect cinematic piece of art ever concocted.

Wizard World is approaching, which means Carrie Fisher is going to be there. My buddy wants her autograph, so I will probably sit in line. Then I realized she can sign my copy of The 'Burbs.
