Poll: Which Is Your Favorite 1980s Action Movie Guilty Pleasure?

A poll by JamesMovieGuy_117
There's nothing better than an '80s action movie with a muscle bound protagonist shooting up bad guys, blowing stuff up, getting the girl and saving the day. No decade better captured this than the 1980s. While there are well known masterpieces like Die Hard, The Terminator, Lethal Weapon, Predator and Robocop, there are those which are less remembered but you admit are awesome!

Which of these movies is your favorite to put on when you are in the mood for some explosive, synthesizer heavy, testosterone filled entertainment?
