If he dies... he dies

Rambo 3. It depicted the Communists as monsters with no regard for human life and a lust for conquest invading the sovereign nation of Afghanistan while the "freedom fighters" are portrayed as heroic and fighting for the Afghan people!
 
Red Dawn is awesome!! I love it and have it on DVD.

"BECAUSE WE LIVE HERE!!!!"

"WOLVERINES!!!!"

"AVENGE ME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

Why the hell were the Soviets shooting at high school kids?

I really wish that movie was remade. Commies are far, far better enemies than terrorists, and heroic stuff in movies has gotten much better.
 
Big Jim Mclain.

It was an early 50s movie about the (real) threats of communist sabotage and attempted infiltration of our nation. Everybody screams about how nuts McCarthy was, but he was indeed onto something, he just went overboard.

EDIT:

Regarding remakes, I am leery of ones from that era remade today. The Manchurian Candidate was horrible. It replaced the real threat posed by Godless commies with business interests instead. We need to remake the Manchurian Candidate the right way and put the PRC back in as the antagonist.
 
Those Authetic History comics made my day!
