Writer-director Michael Crichton’s Looker initially tanked at the box office but, courtesy of the early 1980s boom in cable TV and home video, this sex-drenched, PG-rated sci-fi parable ultimately evolved into a cult classic.

That Looker showcases Susan Dey nude -- smack between her stints on The Partridge Family and L.A. Law -- has much to do with Looker’s on-going place in the hearts, minds, and other organs of the ’80s generation.

Looker first turned up in theaters on this date in 1981.

Greystoke: The Legend of Tarzan proved to be a surprise hit in 1984, by putting an unusual spin on the familiar tale of a Caucasian baby who gets lost in the jungle, is raised by local animals, and grows up to be a noble savage with incredible strength, cunning, and bravery.

A few months later, another film mined the same material, but it flipped genders and seemingly took skinspiration from Bo Derek’s Tarzan the Ape Man, as well.

The result was Sheena, which starred a naked Tanya Roberts and, T&A-mazingly, was rated PG.

Sheena opened 24 years ago on this date and, yes, those were the times.
