80's Movie Weekend



In 1982, the fictional character of John Rambo came to life on the big screen. Based upon the 1972 book by the same name written by David Morrell, Sylvester Stallone created a larger than life character that would appear in many sequels to come through the 80's and then again with a fourth installment in 2008. But, it doesn't get any better than the original... "First Blood"...
