Class of 1999’s greatest achievement is that it makes it’s totally awesome prequel, Class of 1984, seem grounded in reality and not at all exaggerated.
I’m a 3rd-Generation Electrical Engineer, The _Kleen-All_ stuff in the black aerosol cans is _Freon Electronic Contact Cleaner_ which’s been outlawed since the mid-1980s, but it was still around for a while…
The student with fake eyelashes under his right eye, is a straight up in-joke to Kubrick's A Clockwork Orange, in which 'Alex' has one and Alex was played by Malcolm McDowell, who plays the school principal in this film. :)
Class of 1999 was awesome. I was class of '95 so I was SUPER happy to have been out of HS by the time '99 rolled around so that I didn't have to fight commando cyborgs in the halls of my school
Class of 1999 is, indeed, awesome. Glad you found this gem, it's just criminally underrated. We had it on in a movie night and everyone was raving about it afterwards.

O man I love this movie. Saw it when I was 16 or 17 (39 now). Was on new years eve, was way late in the night when it turned this one on. Me and my dad watched the whole thing, enjoying a beer (yes, in the Netherlands back then the legal drinking age was 16) and a old school (no pun intended) action movie with androids! It was so over the top..gods I miss these type of movies, they didn't take themselves serious!
I love how cheese ball movies make hand grenades look like they hold about 40 litres of diesel fuel in them and can take out entire floors in a building.
@@JasonBrant I would definitely say so. It was originally banned in a few countries and had to be cut as it’s more of an exploitation film I’d say. It has been released uncut now though. There’s also class of 1999 2 - the substitute but I’ve not seen it.
@@JasonBrant Class of 84 is great, more of a dark film tho, not sure if it would go with the channel, as I don't think you would be laughing, you should definitely watch it tho
Really enjoyed this one guys, glad you all laughed and appreciated the same parts as me. It was Stacy Keach’s idea that his character, Dr. Bob Forrest, have albino eyes and hair. The director Mark L. Lester went out to some of the clubs in Seattle in search of some local music to include in the movie. Mark came across a then unknown band at a grunge bar and cut a deal to buy the rights to all the songs they played that evening for $100 each. That band was none other than Nine Inch Nails and their hit song “Head Like a Hole” did make the final cut of the theatrical release. I really enjoyed the special fx in this one the director was impressed with Special FX creator Eric Allard who did Short Circuit and Rick Stratton who did the mechanical fx for Galaxy of Terror. Keep up the great work everyone.
I don't think that NIN was that unknow. Pretty hate MAchine did pretty well and they played as support band for Skinny Puppy... plus Grunge bar? Trent Reznor was in the industrial scene and under the patronage of Al Jourguersen. I have to take that story with a grain of salt.
@@das81 NIN started in 88 production for Class of 1999 started in 89 🤷♂️ Pretty Hate Machine came out In 89 and I'm pretty sure NIN wasn't well known till Downward Spiral in 1994.
@@lowbudgetfilmguy8626 I was in college '91-'95, and remember NIN being quite popular most or all of that time... and I wasn't even paying much attention, as I've never been a fan. But I could be misremembering.
Thanks again guys! I can't stop grinning the whole time! I love the way you pick apart the plot and dialogue. Pam Grier (even as a robot)😍 The little brother is the kid in "The River's Edge" which also starred a young Crispin Glover.
This was such a blast. First time I saw it was when I picked it up in the rental store. It's a gritty over the top, scifi action horror mix that just delivers. The principal and RoboCop 2 had a baby nursed by the terminator and it's called Class of 1999. Great stuff..
I grew up watching this years ago. Back then people were used to the idea of cyborgs implemented in warfare and law enforcement, but being used in schools was something new. Tnx for sharing this 👍
This movie is a true gem. I mean, the subtext alone - students battling their unfair, inhumane teachers, and have to go to school despite it making no real sense at all, even endangering people? Literally drilling into their skulls? The teenage struggle subtext alone is gold, adding to the aesthetics of the world and the good looking effects. Imagine adding the Terminator 2 music to it.
Love this movie. You were right when you said a scene was edited/censored. I have the "unrated version of this film and some scenes are quite violent...but entertaining as well. BTW...you all are doing a great job, keep the humor going, fantastic!
I’m a little late to the party on the comment section. I used to work underaged in a knock-off Blockbuster as a young kid and got to watch a lot of flicks. I grabbed a copy of this and watched it in the mid 90’s as a middle schooler in preparation for my academic future. Graduated High School in 99’. Underrated film. Congratulations on breaking the algorithm. 👍🏻👍🏻
Sophia Stewart wrote the original storyline for The Terminator and The Matrix before james cameron ripped off her idea. STEWART took Hollywood to court and won. Years ago.
This movie had everything in it! I love when watching these and start placing actors from their other more known movies. Pam was a real convincing "terminator" and I always thought that that dude who played "rocket man/gym teacher" was scary from when I saw that Van Damme movie, Death Warrant. He played Sandman. Great content!
Aw man i remember this movie use to come on late night on HBO in the 90s all the time, always like at 2 or 3am lol great stunts love the practical effects,love this movie
Goofy commentary from me, but I'm pretty sure that "dull drill" was actually a "roughing end mill". It would completely destroy someone's face even worse than a drill! Love your guy's material! Just found it recently, and can't get enough 👍
This was one of my favorite movies growing up. I was convinced my high school teachers were going to be robots. I also felt like it was a play on Lean on Me, like a sci-fi version of that story. I'm so glad the crew enjoyed this as much as I did.
One of my favorite movies of all time. I remember renting it a Blockbuster and getting charged an extra dollar for not rewinding the movie. Be kind please rewind.
I was Bradley Gregg’s stunt double. Did most of the Motorcycle stunts +.. We destroyed every Taurus they could rent between Seattle and Portland. I had never been broken in half and pulled through a wall before…
There's apparently a straight-to-video sequel to this subtitled The Subsitute. It's directed by one Spiro Razatos. Sounds familiar? He's a stunt pro and sometimes second unit director on action movies, handling major action setpieces. He did it on Captain America: Civil War, amongst other things aswell.
Very late comment here. The intro boardroom was used in an episode of 'The Expanse' maybe season 3 ? And the later drug possessing kid in the car (thrown out the window) was a either before or after a major actor in Northern Exposure TV series. Oh and the kid that bothered you early on is a major player in 'Near Dark' Inn my humble opinion the best Vampire movie ever made!
I'm so glad you guys discovered this movie and loved it as much as I do. 1984 and 1999 are some of my all-time favorites. On Mark Lester, besides the Class movies and Commando, he did a nice little action B-movie called Showdown in Little Tokyo that I really like with a pre-The Crow Brandon Lee. Keep up the great content guys!
Ever since I came across your channel, I’ve been watching your old stuff catching up to now. Now this is something I’ve started looking forward to! Please keep going!
There's a prequel to this Class Of 84 directed by Mark Lester. Great reaction to this B movie gem, John P. Ryan chewing the scenery he's just B movie gold, throw in Malcom McDowell & The Sandman from Death Warrant & you have a action packed gem.
I'm so glad you got to see this gem of a movie as it is pretty much the epitome of 'so bad it's good.' I have an entire collection of these types of movies which I would like to recommend to you seeing as how this seems to be your type of thing.
This movie is so awesome. Saw it years ago. It is just so crazy and doesn;t take itself seriously at all. I'm sure I had one of those cyborgs as my PE teacher at high school.
I love this movie!!! Seen it many times, really happy you guys love it, too! Hopefully, I'll be able to watch tonight's live-stream, and not get called in to work, sadlol!
@@JasonBrant yay, I barely made the chat! Glad Erin likes the stickies, I'll include different Alaska HURRRRRchandise with the movie I told you about. Your only hint: nature's mighty ungulate!
@@JasonBrant Dude, another great movie that I think you will love, but it's a little tough to get - The Monkees' movie, HEAD. Trust me, it's wild, but awesome. Plus, Jack Nicholson helped to write and direct it - before Easy Rider.
This was a really fun movie with great low budget effects and a solid cast. Good choice. Fun fact: the final villain, Patrick Kilpatrick, was one of the restaurant hold up men in the Toxic Avenger.
You could always pause the movie, go pee, then restart the movie and just edit that part out. We would have no idea it even happened! I knew I remembered the science lab flamethrower explosion, but I forgot it was Pam Grier. I think I might have seen this in the theater.
Thank you, thank you so much I haven't seen this film in decades and forgot just how 90's it is(guns guts and gore(and pam grier) infact it might border on being sg ig peace and love always ❤ 😊
I loved this movie! So much 'awesomeness' ;) That was yet another one straight from Blockbuster, back in my Pasadena, CA days; watching a movie I never heard of so to improve my English. And what a trip that was! I remember I (almost) couldn't understand a thing, yet the explosions, the insanely awesome cast, the funny absurdity of the plot made me like it no matter what. To be honest, I actually wanted to suggest it to you. I did think about it, though I decided not to as I considered it 'too good' to be bad. Straight from IMDB website: 'Malcolm McDowell only worked for two days on this film' This, too how awesome was that :) Anyway, thanks so much for yet another awesome review, you guys are the best. 71 and counting!, woo-hoo.
Check out Nemesis (1992), it's an excellent cyborg action movie, a forgotten cyberpunk classic. The movie is pretty good, all effects are practical and very well done (lots of cyber gore). There's a young Thomas Jane and a full frontal in this movie!
It's a sequel to a film called Class of 1984. Check that film out. It's a well done and very entertaining film with Roddey McDowell and uoung Michael J Fox. Written by Tom Holland. He directed Fright Night and Child's Play. It's not really a bad movie
"Firestarter" is a Mark L. Lester directed movie. He also directed, "Showdown in Little Tokyo" starring Dolph Lundgren, which seems like it would fit the overall theme of this show a little better.
Amazing! Absolutely will be getting this to sit down with a buddy one evening with a bottle of whiskey. Glad you guys sit through dozens of shit movies to find the rare good one so I don't have to
I hope to see everyone at our livestream tonight! th-cam.com/video/_wG94Y7FESo/w-d-xo.html

Oh and the kid that bothered you early on is a major player in 'Near Dark' Inn my humble opinion the best Vampire movie ever made!
I'm so glad you guys discovered this movie and loved it as much as I do. 1984 and 1999 are some of my all-time favorites. On Mark Lester, besides the Class movies and Commando, he did a nice little action B-movie called Showdown in Little Tokyo that I really like with a pre-The Crow Brandon Lee. Keep up the great content guys!
Thanks, Vincent! I'm looking forward to Showdown in Little Tokyo.
I had absolutely forgotten about this movie.
Ever since I came across your channel, I’ve been watching your old stuff catching up to now. Now this is something I’ve started looking forward to! Please keep going!
Thanks, Robert! Lots more on the way. We're livestreaming on the channel tonight - you should hop in the chat and say hi.
17:13 Wilhelm for the win! 😅😅
LEGS !!!!!
19:27 Is that a corduroy baseball cap? Lmao I honestly can’t remember last time I saw one of those
🤣 🤣
The amount of times you've said Awesome in this video would make for a rather dangerous drinking game :P
Great vid as always, Jason!
My brain broke, haha.
That's suicide.
I saw this on VHS years ago. And it was quite entertaining. Had all but forgotten it even existed until now. Great episode, guys/gal. Loved it!
Thanks! Loved this movie.
Don't forget that the lead guy was in a nightmare on elm Street, the dream warriors, also big fan of this movie, loved it and still do
There's a prequel to this Class Of 84 directed by Mark Lester.
Great reaction to this B movie gem, John P. Ryan chewing the scenery he's just B movie gold, throw in Malcom McDowell & The Sandman from Death Warrant & you have a action packed gem.
It really is a gem. Loved it.
@@JasonBrant Another great Mark L Lester film Dolph Lundgren & Brandon Lee Showdown In Little Tokyo.
23:50 Well, I guess you could say...*takes off sunglasses* he's a drill instructor.
YEEEEAAAAAAAAHHHHHH!
Well done 🤣
Another home run with this video. Love your stuff. Keep it up! Oh, I really hope you guys call it HURRRRchandise. 🤣
I think we have to 🤣 That still cracks me up.
I'm so glad you got to see this gem of a movie as it is pretty much the epitome of 'so bad it's good.' I have an entire collection of these types of movies which I would like to recommend to you seeing as how this seems to be your type of thing.
This movie is so awesome. Saw it years ago. It is just so crazy and doesn;t take itself seriously at all. I'm sure I had one of those cyborgs as my PE teacher at high school.
Did your teacher cave in your chest and break the necks of your classmates?
@@JasonBrant No. He would have if he could. He did however manage to destroy all our hopes and dreams.
Holy crap...dude @17:42 got "Freddy Kruger'd"!!! 🤣
I love this movie!!! Seen it many times, really happy you guys love it, too! Hopefully, I'll be able to watch tonight's live-stream, and not get called in to work, sadlol!
Hope to see ya in the chat! Tell your boss is more important than BS work 🤣
@@JasonBrant 🤣🤣🤣
@@JasonBrant yay, I barely made the chat! Glad Erin likes the stickies, I'll include different Alaska HURRRRRchandise with the movie I told you about. Your only hint: nature's mighty ungulate!
@31:41 that's Ed from "Northern Exposure" which we're watching on Prime video now.
Class of 1999 was indeed AWSOME
LOVED it!
This was a movie that I remember renting, enjoying, and watching whenever it was on cable, but I haven't seen in years. It's time to watch it again.
It's amazing.
@@JasonBrant Dude, another great movie that I think you will love, but it's a little tough to get - The Monkees' movie, HEAD. Trust me, it's wild, but awesome. Plus, Jack Nicholson helped to write and direct it - before Easy Rider.
This was a really fun movie with great low budget effects and a solid cast. Good choice. Fun fact: the final villain, Patrick Kilpatrick, was one of the restaurant hold up men in the Toxic Avenger.
Looking forward to The Toxic Avenger. And yeah, I loved this movie.
According to IMDB, Kilpatrick quit that movie in disgust after he had to point a shotgun at a baby.
Yup, hey look Teeny Boppers 😃
I vaguely remember renting this on VHS back in the day. It was amazing!
So much fun.
You could always pause the movie, go pee, then restart the movie and just edit that part out. We would have no idea it even happened! I knew I remembered the science lab flamethrower explosion, but I forgot it was Pam Grier. I think I might have seen this in the theater.
Pausing the movie makes editing it a pain in the ass. Brian just needs to man up 🤣
Rules of men watching movies together- no pause for the cause.
The grenade @16:40 is from the "Little Boy" series. 🤣
That looked awesome and bonkers. I'm amazed I don't remember seeing it. Just the fact so many really good actors were in it is a surprise 👍
I can't believe I hadn't heard of it either.
I remember watching this movie when i was kid growing up in the 90's. My family had cable t.v., so i was able to see so many great movies growing up.
I'm surprised I missed this one.
Thank you, thank you so much I haven't seen this film in decades and forgot just how 90's it is(guns guts and gore(and pam grier) infact it might border on being sg ig peace and love always ❤ 😊
It's so good.
I grew up watching this withmy twin bro.we loved it! Thanx for reminding me of it!!!!
Best one you guys have done. It would fit perfectly in the robocop universe. Id recommend return of the living dead.
Return of the Living Dead is WAY to good for this. That's an all-time classic! And thanks - had a blast with this movie.
@@JasonBrant I'm sure they meant Return of the Living Dead 3!
Great job as always gang! That True Lies reference was perfect! Or should I say... AWESOME! 🤣
Right? That had me rolling. Even checked the comments to see if someone else commented on it lol. 🤣
Thanks! I had fun with it.
I loved this movie! So much 'awesomeness' ;)
That was yet another one straight from Blockbuster, back in my Pasadena, CA days; watching a movie I never heard of so to improve my English. And what a trip that was! I remember I (almost) couldn't understand a thing, yet the explosions, the insanely awesome cast, the funny absurdity of the plot made me like it no matter what.
To be honest, I actually wanted to suggest it to you. I did think about it, though I decided not to as I considered it 'too good' to be bad.
Straight from IMDB website: 'Malcolm McDowell only worked for two days on this film' This, too how awesome was that :)
Anyway, thanks so much for yet another awesome review, you guys are the best. 71 and counting!, woo-hoo.
You improved your english using action movies? That's amazing! And it's hilarious that McDowell was only there for two days.
Another classic from my early teens/childhood. Late night Cinemax staple back in the day. Great video🤣🤣🤣
Thanks!
Check out Nemesis (1992), it's an excellent cyborg action movie, a forgotten cyberpunk classic. The movie is pretty good, all effects are practical and very well done (lots of cyber gore). There's a young Thomas Jane and a full frontal in this movie!
Sold. Sounds like my kinda movie.
Looks like Brian on the cover art. Lol
It's a sequel to a film called Class of 1984. Check that film out. It's a well done and very entertaining film with Roddey McDowell and uoung Michael J Fox. Written by Tom Holland. He directed Fright Night and Child's Play. It's not really a bad movie
Will do. Sounds like I should watch it outside of the show. Appreciate the heads up.
I remember watching this when it first came out and loved it. Also the kid "that bothers erin" is homer from near dark. Another classic 👌
"Firestarter" is a Mark L. Lester directed movie. He also directed, "Showdown in Little Tokyo" starring Dolph Lundgren, which seems like it would fit the overall theme of this show a little better.
Looking forward to watching that one. If it's half as good as this, it'll be amazing.
Didn't showdown also star Tia Carrera and Brandon Lee?
@@jamessiddle572 Yes, it did!
Thanks!
Thanks 🙏
Amazing! Absolutely will be getting this to sit down with a buddy one evening with a bottle of whiskey. Glad you guys sit through dozens of shit movies to find the rare good one so I don't have to
You'll have a blast with this and a buddy.
Hey! the "Come on!" kid at 2:34 was the little vampire in "Near Dark"!
