Splash (1984)

Plot hole: Why would Madison take a bath in steaming hot water? The ocean water is warm or cold depending on the area of the ocean. So, it makes no sense as to why she does this.

Suggested correction: Not sure I would call this a plot hole. It's more of a question. While she is used to the warm or cold water of the ocean, she may prefer to have the hot water once she realises that it's an option for her.

The Adventures of Buckaroo Banzai Across the 8th Dimension (1984)

The Adventures of Buckaroo Banzai Across the 8th Dimension picture

Plot hole: When Buckaroo is speaking with the president via video call (with John Parker by Buckaroo's side), New Jersey is explaining the reason humans can't see the aliens from planet 10, is a result of bacteria produced by the aliens which is then absorbed by humans via their olfactory senses, affecting their cerebral cortex. If this is the case, why doesn't the president see John Parker in his true alien persona. He can't smell him through the television. (01:04:50 - 01:05:40)

The Lost Empire (1984)

Plot hole: Given Dr. Sin Do is a sneaky and quite brilliant mastermind it seems unlikely he could've been fooled by a victim's sister, especially when they look alike.
