1980s pop stars Tiffany and Debbie Gibson duke it out in an upcoming movie that will be headed to the Syfy channel.

Here’s a clip and press release:

TIFFANY and DEBBIE GIBSON are here to make all your 80s nostalgia dreams come true. As they take their pent-up, top of the 80s pop chart battle to hand-to-hand combat in this clip from the upcoming Syfy film “MEGA PYTHON VS. GATOROID.”

They rage against each other, just like Andie rages against judgmental yuppies in “16 candles.” They try to defeat each other, just like Gary and Wyatt try to defeat their unpopularity and lack of girls in “Weird Science.” They battle, just like Alexis and Krystle battle from “Dynasty” battle in living rooms, in art studios, in bedrooms, on hillsides, in lily ponds….

On Monday, September 13, viewers will get the best of both coasts when the third season premiere of 90210 (8:00-9:00 p.m. ET) leads into the season four premiere of GOSSIP GIRL (9:00-10:00 p.m. ET).
