Looks like I've got another flick to buy. I loved The Principal.

Rad movie, the cover/poster always made me think it'd be some kind of post-apocalyptic, Mad Max deal. At first i was disappointed that it wasn't, but then Class Of 1984 turned out to be a whole different kind of awesome. Then again, how could i expect any less from the director of Commando.

Classic eighty's revenge cinema. I happen to have picked-up the special edition dvd from Anchor Bay ent. I was not disappointed. Great film and great extras. Timothy Van Patten played his role perfectly. I mean, every time view the film I just want to beat his face in with a tire-iron. Say, wasn't Timothy Van Patten's father the Dad on the show "Eight is enough"? That's some old school shit right there. |
I vaguely remember that the straight to video sequels were a sack of shit, but I have no idea if they were so shit they were good...
Then again, I can't remember that much about the film itself... Will hunt it down. |
This movie would have been much better if Timothy Van Patten wasn't playing the bad guy. He's such a stunning dousche that it takes you out of the movie. It's like trying to have Shia LaBeouf play the heavy- Everyone in the movie is intimidated by him, but you know you could kick his ass. Anyone remember TVP's mush-mouth performance in the MST3k episodes "Master Ninja" 1 and 2?

Take a look at my face, I am the future...

Also, don't forget that Roger Ebert himself gave this movie 3 and a half stars!
|
I never want to see the sequels.
