      It's always weird seeing a hot chick who's now old enough to be your grandma. I mean, to be fair I felt the same about sigourney weaver in Alien. And signourney weaver in Avatar. And signourney weaver now.

    @curtisrice142s9 Před 7 lety +2

    One of my favorites! The whole series is good even though in different films of the series they kept changing what A Trancer was. I was lucky enough to see Trancers at my neighborhood theatre when it was released.

  • @mladenkulic446

    A cult classic! We rented this on VHS back in around 84/85-ish and I loved it. I remember it also being on a show called 'Videodrome' one night, where Alex Cox introduced the movie before it was shown. I recorded it then and watched it a few times. I have a proper copy on VHS too.
    The stilted acting, boom mic's in shot and terrible stunt doubles all add to the charm of this film. Your overview of Trancers is great.

  • @machfront
    @machfront Před rokem +1

    Love the film! I saw it in, I believe, January or February of 1986 a few months before I turned 12. I’d waffled on renting it for a handful of months. I was already a huge Blade Runner fan and already a fan of b-movies. I’ll never, ever forget that this same night, I bought the very last original Star Wars figure I ever bought: a Power of the Force Death Star Gunner. I was messing around with it while I watched Trancers. Heheh.
    Years passed and then I rapidly became aware of Band’s other work plus the then new Full Moon stuff. I was a huge fan right away, of course! 😁

  • @steveaguiar1934

  • @visulisationuk
    @visulisationuk Před 7 lety

    I remember first seeing this movie as part of a bbc 2 videodrome evening. As a preteen at the time it made me both hide with fear and chuckle with laughter. the over the top acting is top drawer hilarious and the effects wonderfully low budget. I'm glad you put this on... It's long overdue for some good bad flicks treatment. 😀

  • @hibuddywazsup5008
    @hibuddywazsup5008 Před 7 lety

    So glad you did this movie. More people need to be informed of this great series that, surprisingly, hasn't been remade yet. And Tim Thomerson is the man. He should have shot to B movie stardom just like Bruce Campbell. Let's start a petition to have Ash meet Jack Deth.

    That fricken red laser prop is in everything Star Trek, Last Starfighter, Hulk, The Flash Movie, and basically if it's scifi-y from the 70's and 80's that thing is in there. Trancers has the glowy laser thingy stamp of approval.

      Oh and Congrats!! This channel is a pleasant escape from the cynical (jaded?) negativity that some reviewers get stuck in. You cover what you enjoy, it shows and is appreciated.
      Also have you seen Cast A Deadly Spell, the movie that kinda inspired the Dresden Files books? It's a pretty goofy made for TV movie starring Remo Williams himself.
