1984 saw the release of an incredibly weird science fiction film called The Adventures of Buckaroo Banzai Across the 8th Dimension. The movie starred Peter Weller as Doctor Who Dr. Buckaroo Bonzai, a physicist, neurosurgeon, test pilot, and rock star.
It's up to Banzai and his band, "The Hong Kong Cavaliers" to save the world by defeating a band of inter-dimensional aliens called Red Lectroids from Planet 10.
It is a wild movie that defies easy summary. It's been years (decades) since I last saw Buckaroo Banzai and would love to see it again some time and write a Cinema Sunday post about it.
In the meantime, Your Friday Video Link this week is the sequence that plays during the closing credits which features dang near the entire cast.
Except in this video, the credits have been edited out.
