I remember this from late night TV when I was a kid, possibly a USA Up All Night staple. Watching this video, I suddenly remembered it beat by beat. A really fun B-movie that I’ll have to track down again all these decades later. Thanks for the memories, Cecil!
What the hell. I'm used to this channel finding obscure stuff but I have NEVER heard of this movie and it's so ahead of its time it might as well have had blast processing.
Maybe George is the developer of the game and we're seeing one of his fantasies. The woman could be an ex that he put into the game because he can't forget her.
This is the perfect movie to watch in the middle of night while munching on a frozen pizza and spacing out about your fantasy football games. Thanks, Cecil!
@@NN-pe6ip That was room temp pizza, in Cobra. That’s why it was easy to cut. That was his breakfast. He eats that, then he criticizes his buddy and Bridgette Nielsen for eating crap. 😆
Cant say how happy i am that you keep making videos man, i was there when you started. To be able to come to your channel and watch a good old Good Bad Flick is amazing. Much love to you and your family, Cheers from Brazil!
How did I go my whole early teens and not see this movie. it looks awesome. You'd think I would have caught it on late night with movies like "In The Cold of the Night"(1990), "Tropical Heat" (1993) and "Out of the Dark"(1988). Oh man, Cecil, you HAVE to do a review of "Out of the Dark". It is right up your alley. All these movies are actually.
Alright, there's your dinner, eat up. 😂 that got me good. I've been watching you for years and your comedy chops have come a long way brother. I'm glad the channel seems to be doing well cuz this is one of the best on the platform in my honest opinion.
Okay, that kill in the nun costume is a kill you can do in Hitman Blood Money. Curtains down when you kill the opera singer. You replace a prop gun with a real one.
I have that very same Explosive Cinema film pack; I got it so I could watch Top Cop again since the old different collection someone once gave me is missing. And I don't think I ever saw this on late-night TV as a kid, but I definitely would have enjoyed the heroine's too-tight clothing (although her as a killer nun is definitely appealing as well). I will also admit that, as confusing as it all is, it has ambition and some creativity, and it actually reminds me of the old Street Fighter cartoon from the USA Channel, where the heroes always got messages from the shadowy-yet-omnipresent Street Fighter organization to alert them to various enemy plots.
11:56 "But then there's none for the rest of the film" while showing nuns. I see what you did there. 😉😂🤣 But seriously, sounds like an interesting movie, and was able to find it on shall we say certain websites, so bookmark it to check it out. Thank you for this.
I have a vague recollection of this movie from HBO (I think). Should tell you that I've seen 100s of flicks on HBO alone, mostly in the 90s. The first couple of movies that I saw included Interceptor starring Andrew Divoff in a rare good guy role. (Never saw the OG with Clint Eastwood, but based on what little I know about it, I think that it's a lower budget Firefox.) Also, an early film for me on HBO was The Punisher with my favorite portrayal of Frank Castle to this day, Dolph Lundgren. Sorry I'm rambling, but I don't have much to say about today's topic, except I love the namecheck of The Hidden (one of my top 10 films ever).
I would like to recommend you two movies, both of which have unusual storytelling. Look from 2007 (and also a series from 2010) was shot exclusively from the perspective of security cameras, industrial cameras, ATM cameras, etc. basically telling a story only the Big Brother could see. Eleven Fourteen from 2003 is telling five independent but intertwined stories, which happen at the same time. The result: 2 accidents, 2 deaths and a random guy getting arrested.
The Kindred (1987) is a great little creature feature that really needs more love. Still waiting on that video for The Kindred. Hoping it's coming soon?
When i first saw this movie back in the stone age, i think i interpreted they guy playing the game as another assassin, and the arcade actually being a "delivery mechanism" for assignments that the assassin's "guild" uses.
Vinegar Syndrome has acquired so many Crown International titles. Maybe this will eventually be on their radar, cause it’s been out of print for over a decade.
@@GoodBadFlicks if you go through the list of the 200 titles in that Mill Creek, Drive In Cult Cinema Collection, it’s surprising how many Crown titles VS has acquired.
7:58 DAMN!! I thought you was going to Cecil😆😆😆😆 10:02 I thought that was Kim Delaney from "NYPD Blue?" This film seems like a confusing mess of a film IMHO. Another awesome installment Cecil👍👍
Have you ever done a video on Lorenzo Lamas "Snake Eater", it is such a Horribly good , bad movie. The acting was so bad and the storyline was all over. Def loved it and would love to hear what you think of the trilogy.
@@GoodBadFlicks I think you'll find it interesting, similar concepts; its a video game world with points awarded for killing top criminals, the protagonist is also a leather wearing hot chick that doesnt take any shit.
Remember seeing this one Sunday afternoon back in the late 90's on what was the local CW. Wish back then there was a way to find out what other movie/roles Lynette Walden had been in because I did want to see more of her.
This definitely feels like the sort of low budget action movie that turned into a long running cult series of seventeen sequels and spinoffs and eventually did "Silencer: Final Bloodline Conclusion" by 1997 and then "The Silencer: In Space" by 2005. I am genuinely almost surprised that I'm not looking up reviews of the next ones and how it started to get weird and lazy after the third sequel. Frankly a lot of the home video era actionsploitationy stuff that took off was way less interesting and less well made. There was clearly *something* they were doing with the video game framing device. I have no idea what. But 1992 was fairly early for whatever meta The Matrix kinda vibe they didn't quite know what to do with, and I could imagine a world where Silencer was able to get enough attention for Silencer II to explain and flesh out the weird parts a lot better in 1993.
I haven't seen this, but it doesn't look bad! It also seems fairly sex-positive for the early '90s, which is pretty cool, particularly because the main protagonist is a woman. Although I guess that stuff could've been in the game?? I dunno, that part confused me, too. But still. I guess it kinda makes sense, considering it was directed by a woman.
It seemed like she had a few messages in the film but weren't too heavy handed with them. (ok, the "no glove no love" was a little rough but kind of funny) I think as far as the game, I wonder how much of that was lost in the edit. Maybe if this gets picked up by VS or another bluray company, the director could do a commentary to explain. I'd love to hear it.
I'm guessing that the accordion player was their boss and that neither were in the video game, that the game is just how they assign targets and monitor agents. Maybe?
It's about time someone had the balls to stand up to Big Peanut.
Someone has to do it!
Love this channel. Been watching for like 10 years or something. 😊
Incredible. Schlocky early 90s action films are my favorite thing ever.

Ah, the old evil Big Peanut axis. A tale as old as time.
Lynette Walden could be perfectly cast in Twin Peaks.
She would fit right in next to Mädchen Amick and Sherilyn Fenn.
Such a good bad flick! 😅 And Lynette Walden..😍

Basil, parsley. Baby you got a stew going!
Put that bone in the water!

You had me at “Pretty Girls” lol
Nice! Thanks for making Monday closing shift better!
You are welcome!
11:57 Heeeey, I see what you did there! 😏
I looked it up. To match the amount of protein in an 8oz steak, it's about 3 pb&j's So she's not too far off
How much is Big Peanut paying you?
I'll bet the proteins are not the same
Looks like SOMEONE is being manipulated by Big Peanut. Or, IS BIG PEANUT!
Yeah but how much is digestible protein, that's the question. If your turds are full of nut fragments then that's protein going to waste right there.
Cecil I never thought you would sell out to Big Peanut

So now we let the sauce simmer, for 3 to 5 minutes 😂 classic

There is a Chilean film from 2012 called: Bring Me The Head of The Machine Gun Woman -- that is very much inspired by The Silencer.
I'm going to track this one down!

Hello Cecil, this film sounds & looks alot of fun. I hope its on Tubi or gets a blu ray release. :)
:)
The director directed an action movie??? Oh yes! Do it! There should be more female directors directing action flicks!🙂
Mmmm Lynette Walden. One of the most beautiful women of the 80's and 90's. She even looks good today at 62.
I thought Richard Greico was Dollar Store Richard Greico.
lol
Lynette Walden was born in Metropolis Illinois home of Superman?!?! She would have made an amazing Lois Lane!
Oh wow, she would have been great
I am a simple man. when I see these thumbnails....
I know who I am targeting with these lol
Sadly this film is not available for streaming not even on Tubi which is where I can usually find these hidden gems
for the record on the video game thing. streets of rage was 1991. so thats about the period.
Streets of Rage had one of the best soundtracks in game history
So, is George played by the same guy who played Hank in Twin Peaks? And the guy who abducted the girl was played by the guy who played Windom Earl?
Yes

I think if Crown didn't go out of business, they most likely would have had a few more of these.
Lt. Dangle makes everything better.
She was defanebtly good to look at, so was the girl she shot at the gun range. I'll have to check this out.
Lynette Walden would make a nice addition to Dead Or Alive DLC.
