I would rank it out of full moon production movies under the original Puppet Master and above Dollman but I would say I love Killjoy series but they didn't make it to my top 5
Trancers (1984) Trancers: City of Lost Angels (segment of Pulse Pounders) (1988) Trancers II: The Return of Jack Deth (1991) Trancers III: Deth Lives (1992) Trancers 4: Jack of Swords (1994) Trancers 5: Sudden Deth (1994) Trancers 6 (2002)
Talking about Tapes has become like Crack for me. I just can’t get enough. Newt and Tony really have great chemistry. Makes me want to talk movies with them.
@@newtonwallen3210 whenever Tony brings another host on you should stand in the background completely still and quiet painted in a camouflage like VHS tapes. Like Wednesday does in the Addams Family.
I think I found this movie several years back at a Vintage Stock, and I loved how campy it is. Then I found a trilogy box set! It's been a while since I've watched them, but I really enjoyed how silly this series is.
28:50 I thought it was implied that Jack Death was his own "father". When Whistler is about to cut Helen Hunt's throat with a knife at the end he says "Didn't you know? Dethton marries the girl, or would have had she had lived. Now Jack Death witness your own demise!" What he's saying is, in the normal timeline Jack's relative Phil Dethton marries Helen Hunt who are then responsible for producing the relatives that made Jack Death down the line in the future. If Whistler kills Helen Hunt by throwing her off the roof, Jack Death will die because his relatives will never have been born. So Jack has to save Helen Hunt or he himself will die. But the kicker is, since Jack stayed back in time he's the one who ends up marrying Helen Hunt. He's the one that impregnates Helen who gives birth to the children that would later give birth to Jack himself in the future. Therefore he is responsible for his own birth.
Don't blame Helen Hunt for that jacket. Blame the costume department. Now excuse me while I nerd out a bit since I'm a history buff. The Confederacy never actually had their own unifying flag because they were politically disorganized (and incompetent). The Bonnie Blue came close to becoming their flag. What we think of today as "the Confederate flag" is actually the flag of the Army of Northern Virginia. The only reason the CSA ever achieved any victories was because their military leadership, mostly educated at West Point, was more relatively professional than the Union Army's leadership (who also had some of those sniveling, uppity, hypocritically elitist, backward-minded West Point screwheads on their side). Btw, Jebediah Morningside was a mortician in the Union Army before he became The Tall Man. Oh! Idea! "Tracers Vs. Phantasm!"
As a time travelling cop who went back for revenge against the men who killed my girlfriend and my lovable animal sidekick, I can confirm that Pirate Tony invented the format of talking about movies 1000 years before VHS even existed. I don't know who was watching back then but it's certainly an enturely true story. #TIMECOP_RENEGADE
Realistically, who'd win in a bout of fisticuffs: Samurai Cop or Jack Death? Just imagine if the two merged into one sentient being as Samurai Jack Death Cop...
I feel bad for you Tony, you only watched half the movie... but in all semiseriousness, I'm surprised that I'd never seen this one, great review, I feel obligated by your eyepatch to send money
Ranked Every Trancers Movie: 7th- Trancers 4: Jack of Swords 6th- Trancers 1.5: City of Lost Angels 5th- Trancers 6: Life After Deth 4th- Trancers 5: 3rd- Trancers 2nd- Trancers II: The Return of Jack Deth 1st- Trancers III: Deth Lives
Tony When I think about Trancers I for some reason think about Scanners which in turn has me remembering Ice Pirates which is fucking awesome 80s space scifi flick space herpes. Get well.
Trancers is definitely a favorite of mine! It's got Helen Hunt who's one of my celebrity crushes and it's got Tim Thomerson as one of the most badass science fiction heroes that no one has ever heard of.
The only thing I can think of about the steering wheel fit, is that older cars there was a lot more give on the Wheel especially if he didn't have power steering.
Ah man... a Full Moon feature! For some reason I love Full Moon movies, especially this one. Maybe you can do a review on Subspecies (1991) at some point. Pretty awesome vampire movie series!
28:25 - I can't believe I'm actually going to provide *some* kind of defense for this argument: even if Jack stops Wisler(Whisler?) does that mean he'll stop the other cops from shooting them both once his long second expires? Does he have enough time in his long second to take out both Wisler(or Whisler) AND the other cops? Inquiring minds want to know lol Or maybe he just has enough time to just get as far away as possible. Again it's *some* kind of defense....
I was wondering if anybody else watched this movie during the holiday season. Trancers, Batman Returns, Die Hard, A Christmas Horror Story, Krampus, and Two Front Teeth are my Yuletide favorites.
Tim Thomerson is another actor whose career is great to follow. Dollman, Nemesis, MetalStorm, etc. (Also a bit part in Rhinestone, but yeah. xD) Bilson & De Meo also wrote a Sci-Fi/WWII film with him and several other Trancers actors that was pretty fun.
Love Tim Thomerson in the Trancers and Dollman movies! I don't know if anyone else mentioned it but he also shows up as Jack Deth in one of the dream sequences in Evil Bong making the Evil Bong franchise part of the Transer-verse as well. 🤯😂
I too thought that Tim Thomerson seemed really old in this movie, so I looked it up. According to IMDB he was only 38 when this was made. Which surprised me because no joke he looks like he's in his sixties in some shots.
In the 80s, we all looked much older. I had ladies hanging all over me when I was four. It always started with them appreciating how sensitive and cute I was. But the game was up in 15 minutes, when I asked for a happy meal or if I can stay up past 8:30.
I have a friend in his 50s that showed me trancers. I couldn't get into the first one or the second. But the 3rd one it all clicked and now I like the whole series, at least to that point.
About your eye bro have you tried taking Omega 3 & 6 supplements? My mom (R.I.P) had similar issues w her eyes and that worked for her alot. Basically fish oil vitamin pills.
There are so may great New Years films like Trading Places, Poseidon (Literally realized this took place on New Years when I recently re-watched it), 200 Cigarettes... there are probably more but those are "good" ones (quotes mainly for Poseidon.)
Check out our full Talking About Tapes Playlist th-cam.com/play/PLT83ftFrCsQTC9iJyxul1XFJWb1nR6Zf6.html
Trancers is criminally underrated, those films are just fun to watch.
I saw first one but did not know there was this many i gotta check this junk out
I would rank it out of full moon production movies under the original Puppet Master and above Dollman but I would say I love Killjoy series but they didn't make it to my top 5
Much like this channel 👍
Trancers (1984)
Trancers: City of Lost Angels (segment of Pulse Pounders) (1988)
Trancers II: The Return of Jack Deth (1991)
Trancers III: Deth Lives (1992)
Trancers 4: Jack of Swords (1994)
Trancers 5: Sudden Deth (1994)
Trancers 6 (2002)
Wasn't Trancers 6 also called "Life after Deth"?
I love Trancers. Tim Thomerson is awesome as Jack Deth.
He's even better as Dollman
@@youtubeuser1159 Trancers is the better movie but Dollman character and Jack Deth are equally awesome
Goddamn! Younger, thicker Helen Hunt is sooooo legit. Put a ring on that Tim Thomerson...
And she could move her face, to boot!
Soooo... it's like Timecop but with Richard Dean Anderson's older brother?
Newt is hilarious! His taste in movies are gold.
Fo sho
thanks.
I do really like Newt on this channel
@@jamesduncan6729 thanks. i like being on the channel

Another wonderful episode. Looking forward to more talking about tapes in the new year
Talking bout tapez
Oh wow can't wait to see this! Trancers is one of my fave B movies and was one of the first films I reviewed on my channel!
You should review “Nemesis” (1992)
I think I found this movie several years back at a Vintage Stock, and I loved how campy it is. Then I found a trilogy box set! It's been a while since I've watched them, but I really enjoyed how silly this series is.

Time to change castzilla vs the podmonster to the One Eyed Monster podcast.
I'll always remember Tim as Jay Allen, The Flash's brother in the 91 show.
Every time I watch your show I get a craving for Reese’s Pieces.
Milk duds for me
Junior Mints for me. They're quite refreshing.
Tony is a Gangsta
18:30 Actually it was at Lucas' insistence that Kathleen Kennedy be given control of Lucasfilm under Disney so he kinda did a lot wrong.
When I was a kid in the 80's (I'm old-er), this would always come on Cinemax on Saturdays. I still love this movie, so good. Great episode
Snake? SNAKE!? SNAAAAAAAAAAAAKE!!!

I praise your colorful, creative comment.
first time viewer. having a blast watching this video. thank you
I genuinely think that Revenge of the Sith is good, it has flaws but it was still good. The other two not so much.
Realistically, who'd win in a bout of fisticuffs: Samurai Cop or Jack Death? Just imagine if the two merged into one sentient being as Samurai Jack Death Cop...
Jack Death looks exactly like retired Australian goalkeeper Zeljko Kalac
Kinda missing the gold chain

Can you guys please review the 1988 Cyber Ninja please
Christmas pirate Tony.
Tony be like "THIS IS DOWN TO THE LINE FOLKS, DOWN TO THE LINE , THERE CAN BE NO MORE DIVISIONS AMONGST THE LIVING"
Had the matrix moves before everyone had the matrix moves.
The first one good after that all trash. I Rember going to see matrix 2 in movie theater and left no shit
Did Tony have to watch this twice to get the normal viewing effect?

Out of all the people who could get an eye injury... I would say that I hope it heals soon but that patch is dope af!

Awesome video. Tony when's the next joker fan episode with justin
Jokerfan279
So, it's Blade Runner?
Trancers 2 is phenomenal! You guys need to review that instalment.
That's how I would pretend to drive a car when I was a little kid
My thought is maybe they told him to "just drive like you normally would" but the guy has never actually driven a car?
Aside from Harlan Ellison's work, here's also the movie "Cyborg 2087" (1966) about a cyborg sent from the future to stop stuff happening.
I've never been in a tanning booth because I live in Texas and the sun shines here.
Ah man... a Full Moon feature! For some reason I love Full Moon movies, especially this one. Maybe you can do a review on Subspecies (1991) at some point. Pretty awesome vampire movie series!
Are you guys ever going to do the other Trancers movies? It'll be hilarious when you get to part 4.
We did the second movie on Patreon

You should do Space Hunters in the Forbidden Zone. Great to see Newt back on YT too.
All actors move the wheel too much in driving scenes... Go and try driving like they drive... Its stupid!! 🤪
I love Tony (not pasta face) from Hack the Movies. Call your mom. Love this channel. You got a new fan
Can we please go back and review the “wish masters” movies.
Wishmaster
Fo sho
I wish tony would review a clockwork orange.
You guys are hilarious! I need to revisit my Full Moon box set because I forgot how good/bad this movie is! 😂😂😂
Please do Dollman next.
I love this movie series!
If you ever do another empire film, I’ll drive down to do it with you! I LOVE EMPIRE PICTURES
One of my favorite movies, favorite lead characters and lead actors of all time!
I was wondering if anybody else watched this movie during the holiday season. Trancers, Batman Returns, Die Hard, A Christmas Horror Story, Krampus, and Two Front Teeth are my Yuletide favorites.

👀 The Wrong Guys.
Homeless baseball I need this for real
Lead actor is also in Near Dark
Love Tim Thomerson in the Trancers and Dollman movies! I don't know if anyone else mentioned it but he also shows up as Jack Deth in one of the dream sequences in Evil Bong making the Evil Bong franchise part of the Transer-verse as well. 🤯😂
It's all connected!
Nice review
Birthday suit crystal?! We're there dude!
Whistler does tell Jack that Leena is his great grandmother.
I love these movies. I found the first three randomly for two bux at a dollar general when I was on vacation.
I too thought that Tim Thomerson seemed really old in this movie, so I looked it up. According to IMDB he was only 38 when this was made. Which surprised me because no joke he looks like he's in his sixties in some shots.
In the 80s, we all looked much older. I had ladies hanging all over me when I was four. It always started with them appreciating how sensitive and cute I was. But the game was up in 15 minutes, when I asked for a happy meal or if I can stay up past 8:30.
He still had blonde hair, but it looked white in the filming process
You guys should do FX and FX2. And if you haven't seen them go watch them now! Any movie lover really needs to see them ASAP
Ghostbuster 2 has ALWAYS and will always kick ass!!!
This reminds me how much I miss good Full Moon movies.
God. Yes. Thank You
damn the made 6 of these movies
Dammmmnnnnn, i'm Watching this review from the Ghostbusters 2 only to know Who SNAKED Tony.
Also from just seeing twister and mad about you in passing I had no idea Hellen hunt was a babe.
Newt
Double day a tall tale so baseball would still exist
The Dawn of the Dead reference is why, I became a Patreon member.
The reason is the clone wars tv show expanding the mythology of the prequels.
I watched trancers back in 1991 loved this franchise
I have a friend in his 50s that showed me trancers. I couldn't get into the first one or the second. But the 3rd one it all clicked and now I like the whole series, at least to that point.
Trancers is my favorite Charles Band movie! I like all the sequels too except for Trancers 6.
"But when they're scooting down the stairs, Jack Deth's stunt double looks like he... "Yes" ...can."
Come again?

Grew up on Full Moon, love this.
So glad your not as passive aggressive these days lol been loving the show👍
An original idea: if you like the movie, Dock, if you don't, just touch hoops.
Hi Tony from hack the movies
I really have to see this film, I have no idea why i've not heard it about it until today.
R.I.P Art Lafleur died yesterday at 78.
Dig the patch
Can't watch Swamp Zombies 2 nor Thugs vs Dinosaurs on prime in Canada. :(
Thugs vs dinosaurs is also on TH-cam!
@@HackTheMovies Thanks for the heads up eh!
@@HackTheMovies I watch it lol it was funny
I’d be honored to co-host on Cruising
Scooters can actually be up to 150cc which would be able to go at least 70mph.
Wait, you guys DON'T think Rian Johnson ruined Star Wars? Hmm
We think it was ruined over a decade before he showed up.
Tony and Newt are the best to ever do it. Sorry Gene and Roger (RIP), Tony and Newt are just better simple as that.
Dam right
Probably the greatest two second George Lucas impression ever caught on tape
