liz69: "John P Ryan what a smile."
Amen to that!
Do you guys know that he passed away not too long ago? How sad!! I'm still heartbroken. According to the site he died on March 20th from a stroke. I still owe it to myself to catch his other movies. He was also great in Delta Force 2. -

This movie was goofy, but then, I think thats kind of the appeal to it. Its kind of a sci-fi and weird twist on Class of 1984. The HUDs showing what the teacher is doing are really, really funny (CORPORAL PUNISHMENT -> MODERATE) or KILL KILL KILL when they go nuts.
Its a campy movie, but bearable; it kind of paved the way for other similar movies like "The Faculty". Funny thing is, that it kind of works as a reversal on Class of 1984, as here it is the teachers the ones who have to be put out of service in the end.
I wish this movie had a worthy sequel, as "Class of 1999 II" was way off the mark of either 1984 or 1999, it might have been good if unrelated to this one and well, better acting (or more campiness). -

Love this movie! I had to go on Ebay to get it from Korea. I saw this movie when I was 5. Now watching it today; it seems there was more blood on the VHS verson then the guy was getting driled in the head. or is it just me?

I loved this film. When I was a kid, I Remember renting it and watching it about 20 times in two days. Tried to start a gang in my high school called the blackhearts ha ha. I managed to recruit four people, I thought Cody was a badass and Hector too. My favourite line has gotta be when Cody's taking a kick-in from the coach and he says 'YOU OUTTA LAY OFF THE STEROIDS COACH, I HEAR THEY SHRINK YOUR PENIS' ha ha.
I gotta watch this again and remember back in the day, when life was easy. Tracy was hot as well.

That girl would be none other than the amazing Traci Lin, although it spelled Lind if you look up her IMDB profile. She was also the girlfriend in Fright Night 2. Always thought she was cute as a button. Anyways, onward to the film: I remember when I came across this movie and it was a total accident. I was searching the sci-fi section of a used movie selling website that doesn't exist anymore (Skinnyguy.com) and this title was among the search results. I read the description and seeing it was something about cyborg teachers in the future, I decided to order it because if I remember correctly, it was only like $10, maybe less, that was a long time ago and I don't remember. So just by accident, I wound up watching and loving one of the greatest cheesy fun movies ever. When I started buying dvds to replace all my vhs tapes, I bought a dvd burner and when I tried to burn this one over, it would always stop at 52:52 because of a bad spot in the tape. So I bought another copy of the tape from Half.com, just so I could watch it on dvd until I get around to getting on Ebay and getting hold of the R1 Korea dvd release, which for some reason, appears to be in English. And for all those above me who loved the final song, thats Come the Day, the band was Midge Ure and you can add me to that fan list as well, because its a goddamn awesome song for a goddamn awesome movie. Funny thing is, I actually graduated high school in 1999, lol. So keep on watching and loving it, this movie kicks ass and it always will.

Awesome, awesome, AWESOME movie! Man, the early 90s and what was showing on Showtime and The Movie Channel was the sh**! This, Freddy's Dead, Basic Instinct, Total Recall and others were just perfect. Sometimes I wish I still had cable, but I'll settle for my 600 strong DVD collection. I think I had to order this one from Barnes & Noble if I remember right, and I even made a fan out of my little sister when we watched this (she's near 18 so she wasn't around when it was first on cable or anything). She loves it too! Great stuff.
