All the usual 80s classics, the Spielbergians, the Terminator, Fright Night, Elm Street (really shouldn't have watched the latter two at that age lol). 80s comedies certainly did a lot to form my sense of humour, I'd wager.

I watched a lot of martial arts films as a kid, both Asian and American films. I did get the occasional non-MA bug at times. This is perhaps one of my all-time favorite movies as a kid, which I recently revisited and showed my kids:
About a boy who decide to go inside a house that was burned down and he got so scared that all of his hair fell off. The ghosts occupying the house make it up to him by giving him a recipe to get his hair back. He is only supposed to add 1 scoop of peanut butter but he put too much and...well, now his hair won't stop growing! He becomes eyed by his art teacher, who plots to kidnap him to use his hair for a new set of paint brushes and kidnaps other kids into making them for him...yes I know it's farfetched but fun nonetheless. The two major songs of the film, "Michael's Song" and "Listen to the Magic Man" were performed by a pre-fame Celine Dion.

I think there was a time when I was watching Halloween (1978) every day. Probably just after I discovered it. Love at first fright.
I watched Troy, a lot, the one with Brad Pitt
