It's The Limit

 

 (wkipedia)

CITY LIMITS-1984-After a plague kills off most adults, a young guy, Lee (John Stockwell) goes to the city to join The Clippers. He and Yogi (Rae Dawn Chong) fight a gang dressed as nurses. James Earl Jones is Albert, Lee's mentor, who helps them fight the army of overacting evil. Carver (Robby Benson) is behind a plot and sits at a desk for his few scenes (they could have been filmed in his home!). Also with Kim Cattrall, Pamela Ludwig and Don Keith Opper (also a co-writer).  

Stupid hi-jinx from director/co-writer Arnold Lipstadt a few years after his first film ANDROID (1982). At least that movie had Klaus Kinski in it...

Thanks for reading!

The Tide Should Have Stayed Out



BLOOD TIDE-1982-Awful bore fest filmed in Greece. Martin Kove and his wife come looking for his sister (Deborah Shelton) on an island full of superstitious villagers. Jose Ferrer is their doomsayer matriarch. In ancient times a ceremony was performed there that required a human sacrifice to ward off evil. James Earl Jones is a strange talking scuba diver who awakens the evil. Shelton is to be the next real sacrifice. A phony looking monster shows up once in a while and munches some swimmers and the local nuns.
