A wonderfully terrible mid-80's anti-communist flick in which America gets invaded by the big bad Reds.
What can you possibly say about this film. Another fantastic American flag waving piece of nonsense. This is one of these films that isn't meant to be funny, but is so ridiculous it becomes a comedy. You can't help but marvel at the insane storyline, with its sympathetic South American guerrila general, the all-American gun totting teens (who miracuously never get injured depite taking on professional soldiers and special forces) and Jennifer Grey's imploding career.

Random quote from the film Red Dawn:
Erica: You American?
Col. Andy Tanner: Red-blooded.
Erica: What's the capital of Texas?
Col. Andy Tanner: Austin.
Erica: Wrong, commie! It's Houston.
Says it all doesn't it.......
