Correct!! (Did the revised clue help?)
Ben6: Several detectives at a country house, one or several murders… or possibly no murders at all.

smiling bandit:
I don’t think it would have come to me that fast if I hadn’t been watching the thing as I read your post. Well, listening to it, but you get the idea.
That, and I was thinking of a way to summarize the flick, at the same time.
SKEE5: A cop is recruited by a secret orginization, and uncovers corruption in the military.
SKEE6: A jack-of-all-trades must stop a madman, and prevent a war, with the help of some musicians and a surgeon.
SKEE7: A former military man returns to his home town, shoots up a biker bar, and saves the day by winning a street fight.
SKEE8: A couple of good ole’ boys run into trouble with the local wildlife, and solve thier problems with the proper application of high explosives.
SKEE9: Some soroity sisters buy a new house and have a party, but run into trouble with the previous owner.
L4L #7 - I think this is the start of a beautiful friendship…
And Ben6: Clue?
tremors
HPL: Ding! Havva cee-gar.
Mrs. Skeezix pointed out to me that Ben6 could quite possibly be Murder By Death.
Yeah?
L4L#7: Casablanca?
Yeppers! I heard some where that some local newpaper had something similar to my clue for a description of TWoO when it was going to play on a local channel.
L4L - #7 - Skeezix, you are correct, but since you only gave a quote, we’ll have to share your points with Jabba.
Yeah! 
SKEE6: Buckaroo Banzai Across the Eighth Dimension?
SKEE7: First Blood?
No, I’m guessing Billy Jack. That wasn’t Rambo’s home town, he didn’t shoot up a bar, and he “won” by shooting the sheriff on the roof of the police station.
Scuba_Ben:
SKEE6 was indeed ole’ Bucky Banzai
SKEE7 wasn’t First Blood, nor Billy Jack
Well, don’t think I’ve ever seen Billy Jack, actually, but it’s not what I was thinking of.
A hint: He also knocks back some tequila, and steals a car, while he’s home.

ALIENS

4 and 5 have me baffled though.
A fellow is bumped off the promotion trail in favor of bosses son and makes a new career in spectator sports.
Valiant policeman tracks a craven criminal on the run who associates with left-wing radicals.
Great thread, all! I’m going to send some of the clues into my club’s newsletter.

Skeezix 5: A cop is recruited by a secret orginization, and uncovers corruption in the military.
Skeezix 7: A former military man returns to his home town, shoots up a biker bar, and saves the day by winning a street fight. (A hint: He also knocks back some tequila, and steals a car, while he’s home.) (Not First Blood or Billy Jack.)
Skeezix 9: Some soroity sisters buy a new house and have a party, but run into trouble with the previous owner.
Plus RJ4, RJ5, Kan1, and Kan2.
Long shot, but…Possesion?
