Sorry! I just can't imagine Earnest Borgnine and Martin Balsam playing "football".

Yeah I'll go along with "Reach for the Sky" and "Operation Petticoat". Never thought much of Audie Murphy, and haven't seen the others.

The Peanut Butter Solution. It was really old when I was about 12. This kid loses his hair - puts this peanut butter mixture on it and it grows like wild fire. He get stolen and they use his hair to make paint brushes.

Weird. I remember liking it though.  oooooooooo

I'm such a noob... I should have used the word "kidnapped" not stolen. What a doofus!

Here is a delectable morsel of forgotten cinematic genius: the Advetures of Buckaroo Banzai Across the 8th Dimension. It's priceless camp entertainment.
