Should I be worried that we are now onto lists where I've seen all the movies?

I'm surprised that people here have seen all these. I grew up in this era and I've only seen 3 for sure all the way through. Of the ones I've seen, only "Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2" was any good. (It's underrated for sure).

2.5 stars is getting into the realm of mediocre: neither bad nor good but leaning towards bad. I may have seen some of these and forgotten them because they didn't make much impression. I know I've seen parts of a few on cable--"Cocktail," "Conan the Destroyer"--and decided they weren't worth completing.

I just checked the other 1980s polls and couldn't find it elsewhere.

I think you might have been thinking of No Holds Barred

That was in 1 star 1980s films

I know I've seen Crocodile Dundee II & Children of the Corn. I may have seen Rambo III, Poltergeist II, & Star Trek V, but I'm not sure, so I didn't count them.
