Favourite 80's Chick?

I just got CHUD today and starting thinking about this....

Who's your favourite 80's chick? I"m talking women who appeared on the scene in the 80's, flared briefly and haven't been doing much since.

My favourite (CHUD related) is Kim Greist. Her brief flash of (low level) fame was in her first four films: CHUD, Brazil, Manhunter and Throw Momma From the Train.

Now she's playing tertiary characters in C-level movies.

I'd post a pic but apparantly the imdb doesn't let you link just pictures so here's some pictures (mostly from Brazil):

Brazil1
Brazil2
Brazil3
More recent picture I think

 

I'm gonna go with Meredith Salenger. She was in Dream A Little Dream, the Kiss and some others...
She's ultra cute and has awesome boobs. Yummers...

 

Jami Gertz is my fave. She was gorgeous back in the day, and now she definitely has the "M.I.L.F." thing going on that show, "Still Standing."

 

Deborah Foreman. She is a cutie, and an 80's Icon.

 

Amy Steel.
Hot, talented and ... well I just love her.

 

Diane Franklin. She was in Last American Virgin, Amityville II, Better Off Dead, etc. Her movie career disappeared after the 80's.

 

the scary thing?

I know all those women without having to do any kind of web search

 

Vanity. She was hot, she was sizzlin'. She was in Terror Train, Tanya's Island, Never Too Young To Die, 52 Pick Up, The Last Dragon.
She was also a drug addict ... ended up as some preacher lady for a church these days.

 

i agree 100 % http://www.amityville2.8m.com/dianefranklinpics.htm

 

She is a cutie.

 

Wow, I like all of these girls, I didn't think anyone else even knew about them. I remember being so excited that Meredith Salenger had a part in VILLAGE OF THE DAMNED when it first came out. She did a good job too, definitely more demanding than your average teeny stuff.

Some other 80s actresses I really loved were:

Tatum O'Neal
Brooke Adams
Catherine Mary Stewart
Daphne Zuniga
Nicolette Sheridan
Mia Sara
Kristy McNichol
Hilary Shepard

And she may not quite be 80s, but Paige French was amazing on the eyes and also a surprisingly good actress. She may have been stuck with thankless roles, but she certainly made the best of them. Here are a few pictures:

 

I always had a crush on Diane Franklin. Don't tell anyone.

 

As a rule, I really don't like the 1980's, despite being born in the 1980's. However, I kind of like Molly Ringwald. She gets my vote.

 

The Scream Queen Of The 80's Is Linniea Quigley Two Movies
Return Of The Living Dead Strips And Grave Dances Then Becomes Zombie And Bites The Bum And Silent Night Deadly Night

 

Out of the actresses mentioned I have to go with either Meredith Salenger or Deborah Foreman. I always thought Meredith Salenger was hot and Deborah Foreman was such a cutie.

 

Lea Thompson. ^_^

 

I take it you never have seen her on that episode of Tales From The Crypt, huh? :eek1: *Shudders*
