The eighties were full of incredible action movies, but while a lot of them are considered classics now, some of the best movies (you never saw) routinely get underrated, so here on JoBlo we're celebrating Thanksgiving weekend with three more of the best - RUNNING SCARED (1986), REMO WILLIAMS: THE ADVENTURE BEGINS (1985) and BEST OF THE BEST (1989).

RUNNING SCARED 1986 - In this buddy-cop action movie, Billy Crystal and Gregory Hines play two Chicago cop who are eager to retire to the Florida Keys, but have to bust a notorious drug dealer (Jimmy Smits) first. Directed by Peter Hyams.

REMO WILLIAMS THE ADVENTURE BEGINS 1985 - Fred Ward stars in the big screen adaptation of Warren Murphy and Richard Sapir's pulp "The Destroyer" series. Co-starring Joel Grey as Remo's Asian (!) mentor. Directed by James Bond alum Guy Hamilton, with an awesome score by Craig Safan.

BEST OF THE BEST 1989: Eric Roberts and Philip Rhee co-star with the less obvious casting of James Earl Jones and Christopher Penn in this martial arts movie classic.
