Amityville 3D (1983)
In the early 80s, not only was Part 3 of any horror series required to be filmed in 3D, but the 3D glasses were part of a scam to pressure audience members to patronize the snack bar.
The cast of Amityville 3D includes Woody Allen's buddy from Annie Hall, Uncle Jesse's girlfriend from Full House, and a teenage pre-plastic surgery Meg Ryan.

The Money Pit (1986)
Before Saving Private Ryan, Band of Brothers, Catch Me If You Can, The Terminal, and Bridge of Spies, Tom Hanks made his first collaboration with Steven Spielberg in 1986's The Money Pit.
