Top 10 Charlie Sheen Movies Full Of Tigers Blood

Forget Scary Movie 5. Forget the tiger blood. Charlie Sheen has actually starred in a lot of great films. (source)

10. Ferris Bueller's Day Off (dir. John Hughes, 1986)

“Drugs?” Charlie Sheen asks. We all know the answer now, but back in 1986 when Sheen made his cameo appearance in Ferris Bueller’s Day Off, it was an unironic question

9. Cadence (dir. Martin Sheen, 1990)

After the death of his father, Pfc. Franklin Fairchild Bean goes on a drunken binge, gets a tattoo on his hand, and winds up in a segregated stockade surrounded by black inmates.

8. Men at Work (dir. Emilio Estevez, 1990)

Charlie Sheen and his brother Emilio Estevez play surfer dude garbage men who find a dead body in the trash.

I real life they play brothers that get trashed! (Too soon?)

7. Rated X (dir. Emilio Estevez, 2000)

Charlie Sheen and Emilio Estevez once again play brothers, this time the real-life pornography entrepreneurs Artie and Jim Mitchell, who produced and directed the classic adult movies Behind the Green Door and Sodom and Gomorrah: The Last Seven Days before devolving into drug addiction and fratricide.

Life, Art, Art, Life... close enough

6. Red Dawn (dir. John Milius, 1984)

John Milius’s Cold War paranoia fantasy Red Dawn starred Patrick Swayze, C. Thomas Howell and Charlie Sheen – in his film debut – as teenagers forced into guerilla warfare after the U.S.S.R. successfully invades American soil. Unlike the abysmal 2012 remake, Milius’s film is a sobering reversal of pro-war jingoism, and in its way, an unsettling metaphor for America’s involvement in Vietnam.

Seriously that remake was worse than a Charlie Sheen live stream.

5. Hot Shots!/Hot Shots! Part Deux (dir. Jim Abrahams, 1991-1993)

Charlie Sheen’s first stab at broad comedy, Hot Shots!, is a hilarious parody of Top Gun featuring classic one-liners, sight gags and an unforgettably wacky performance by Lloyd Bridges.

Quick Note:

Charlie Sheen remarks before a particularly energetic fight sequence, "I learned this one from Paula Abdul." Paula Abdul was married to Charlie Sheen's brother, Emilio Estevez, at the time of the film's release.

In the words of Topper Harley: My father used to say that not playing to win is like sleeping with your sister. Sure she's a great piece of tail, with a blouse full of goodies, but... it's just illegal. Then you get into that whole inbred thing. Kids with no teeth who do nothing but play the banjo... eat apple sauce through a straw... pork farm animals.

4. The Arrival (dir. David Twohy, 1996)

Charlie Sheen tried his hand at sci-fi thrillers in The Arrival, a smart, unexpected invasion story about an astronomer (Sheen) who discovers a message sent by an alien life form. The trouble is… it came from Earth. Sheen is at his best as the increasingly paranoid hero, who begins to suspect mankind was actually invaded a long time ago, and is probably right.

At one point Zane Ziminski Asks: What's your point? There's always something that gives me false hope? That I'm wasting my life?

Too true?

3. Major League (dir. David S. Ward, 1989)

Major League wasn’t the first underdog sports comedy, and it sure as hell wasn’t the last, but that doesn’t mean it’s not one of the best. The owner of the Cleveland Indians wants to drive down attendance so she can move to Miami, so she assembles a ragtag team of misfits in the hopes that they’ll lose big. The top-notch ensemble cast – including Charlie Sheen, Tom Berenger and Wesley Snipes – are determined to prove her wrong by winning the pennant.

Wild Thing, I think I ... really like you, but I'm just not ready for a relationship

2. Wall Street (dir. Oliver Stone, 1987)

If it was topical at the time, it seems like prophecy today. Wall Street was Oliver Stone’s indictment of stock market gambling and apathetic One-Percenters. Michael Douglas stars as Gordon Gecko, whose philosophy “Greed is good” seducers a young stock-jockey played by Charlie Sheen into the world of insider trading. Valuable lessons are learned in this blunt but brutal 1987 classic.

1. Platoon (dir. Oliver Stone, 1986)

WINNING!

Charlie Sheen should have stayed in touch with Oliver Stone. His two best films were both collaborations with the hot button director, and in the Vietnam War saga Platoon, Sheen even plays a fictional version of Stone himself. Sheen plays Pvt. Chris Taylor, a college dropout turn Vietnam War volunteer who’s torn on the battlefield between the jaded Sgt. Bob Barnes (Tom Berenger, never better) and the more spiritual Sgt. Elias (Willem Dafoe). Platoon won four Academy Awards, including Best Picture and Best Director, and at this rate will probably always be Charlie Sheen’s best movie.

Somebody once wrote, "Hell is the impossibility of reason." That's what this place feels like. Hell. Pretty sure this quote was actually about Reddit. ;)
