    What happens when the director of Commando decides to have gangs of teenagers fight terminators in a high school? You get Class of 1999. I can't believe I hadn't heard of this movie before. With an epic cast, insane explosions, excellent stuntwork, and crazy kills, this movie is a wild ride.

      1800's - drab and dull af
      1950's - still suits but showing a little post war flair
      1960's - a bit more flair, kind of sophisticated but sexy miniskirts are happening. Drugs are becoming readily available.
      1970's - hippies take over, big rebellion of youth, squares still wear suits.
      1980's - colour, polyester and perm explosion. Most likely because of drugs.
      Early 90's - still a bit mental but more subdued colours
      Mid-late 90's - black and grey "sophistication" is cool, still with a slight 80's tinge.
      2000 - present - not much has changed at all.

    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.

    Class of 1984 is the first of the Trilogy. It was a crime thriller movie about a teacher dealing with gangs. With this one, it was a Sci-Fi action film set in the "Future." The third one, Class of 1999: The Substitute, starred Sasha Mitchell (best known as for roles in "Dallas" and "Step by Step") as a new Substitute teacher in a Gang Infested school. It had some footage from the second movie in it, but really they didn't have the money to do nearly as many cool effects as they did in the second movie.
