Kraa! The Sea Monster
Wheeler
Lord Doom, evil master of Proyas, the Dark Planet, sends Kraa the Sea Monster to Earth as part of his plan to dominate the galaxy. To keep the meddling hands of the Planet Patrol out of his scheme, he incapacitates their nearby space station. Fortunately, the alien agent Mogyar is on hand to land on Earth to stop the giant sea-beast. Accidentally landing in New Jersey rather than Italy (where scientists could have helped Mogyar build a weapon to stop Kraa), Mogyar must overcome his stereotypical Italian accent and strange appearance in order to ally with nearby humans to save the day.
Playing for Keeps
Silk
An ambitious trio of inner-city high school grads tries to hit the big time by turning a run-down country hotel into a rock & roll resort with around-the-clock music and live entertainment. Standing in their way are fearful townsfolk, unscrupulous businessmen and the tax collector, all threatening to bring the curtain down on the teens' aspirations. But this is one threesome who refuses to give up on their lifelong goal without a fight — and a song.
The Brother from Another Planet
Basketball Player
An alien slave crash-lands in New York City while being pursued by two Men in Black bounty hunters. His attempt to find a place for himself on Earth parallels that of the immigrant experience.
Beat Street
Chollie
An aspiring DJ, from the South Bronx, and his best friend, a promoter, try to get into show business by exposing people to hip-hop music and culture.
ワンダラーズ
Boo Boo
1963年のブロンクスを舞台に、徒党を組む若者たちの姿を描いた青春映画。イタリア系非行グループ“ワンダラーズ”を主役に、中国人や黒人など多様なグループが登場し、抗争や連帯といった群像劇が綴られるが、ストーリーの起伏には大きく欠ける。後半登場する暴力グループ“ダッキー・ボーイズ”の不気味さに、P・カウフマンの前作「SF/ボディ・スナッチャー」(78)のタッチが見られる。
