'current cinema is just exploitation with a massive budget', amazingly accurate quote!

The Quentin Tarantino trivia was amazing. I love this channel so much.

Man, seeing the video posters for these films gives me so much nostaligia. Walking into my local video shop and seeing these covers all over the shelves was like magic to me in the 80s. It was nothing for me to spend an hour wandering around, reading film synopsis the backs of the videos. Thank you.

Great video, also Carpenter did not sue the production for Lockout, it was the French lawyers from studiocanal who sued, Carpenter later found out and got a 10k in the settlement, the same Lawyers also wanted to sue Hideo Kojima, and Konami for Metal Gear Solid, but Carpenter was friends with Hideo and declined.

Saw this back in the VHS glory days. We knew what we were getting into, as in Euro knock off but the sheer enthusiasm of this flick won us over. One of the best explotation flicks...no doubt.

Man every time I finish watching one of your uploads my first thought is "Shit, now I want more". You're a truly underappreciated KZfaqr. Keep it up, coz you've got me hooked.

Love that the commentary talks about movies being about collectibility and yet their first press with the commentary is a bit of a collectors item.

love this channel so much!

Man these posters and covers are awesome, I wish that modern films were like this

I absolutely love those old movie posters, like the one of this movie. They were so artistic and beautiful to look at. Nowadays we have photoshopped crap.

Hey, man, I spent half of 2018 on medical leave after a motorcycle accident. I discovered the channel and loved it. It was an actual companion for me as I got better and I honestly enjoyed the passion and dedication you have when making your content. It also pointed me towards several movies I seeked after watching your videos and had a blast with . I just wanted to say thanks. Rock on.

Best 1 euro that I have spent is this movie on DVD. Such a classic!!!

"2020 TEXAS GLADIATORS" Taking bets on when that video's coming out!

That painted poster artwork is so cool and really ignites the imagination that the film can inevitably never match.

I really love this channel! You ever thought about doing an "Exploring" on American Werewolf in Paris (1997) or Split Second with Rutger Hauer (1992)?

I KNEW he was going to say TARANTINO before he even said it... :)

You're really spoiling us with all of these "Exploring" videos. You're doing the lord's work.

PD James was like a real-life dotty Miss Marple type. She was 67 when 2019:ATFONY finally arrived here in the UK in 1987. I'd be amazed if she ever saw it.

I loved this movie as a kid! I had a mate in the 80s whose dad owned a video store, and we would watch stuff like this a lot. For the longest time, though, I had forgotten the name of the flick, and kept getting it confused with Metalstorm: The Destruction of Jared-Syn (another movie we'd watch). The clearest memory I had of it was that there was a jazz dude with a messed up face playing music as he looked out at a distant city, and some gnarly eye gouging. A few years ago I eventually figured out it was this, and watching it as an adult I was very much HOLY CRAP ALFONSO CUARÓN OBVIOUSLY LIKES THIS MOVIE Despite its dubious quality, this movie makes me feel like a kid again whenever I watch it. Great stuff.

Having to wait until 2019 to do this? I can only imagine how many movies must take place in 2020.

I just watched this as my first movie of 2019 ... and kicked off my series of movies that are set in 2019 . Thanks for doing this

You should do Frankenhooker

Huzzah! I remember stumbling onto this on our local late night TV (along with Bronx Warriors) when I was a kid and it quickly become a cult classic of mine. In particular I remember Big Apes character design. Always fun to learn more about these kind of old movies!

I remember George Eastman from Joe D'amato's Antropophagus and Absurd. Nasty but awesome Italo-horror flicks.

We will be here when you come back. And you have the love of all of us.

Sergio Martino is one of my favorite Italian directors. Torso and Your Vice is a Locked Room And Only I Have The Key are amazing.

Love these exploring videos

I found this channel in 2016 sadly I should of seen his older videos when they were first publish because they are now banned in Australia or gone because of copy rights like the pig masked guy with chainsaw but 2019 After the Fall of New York is still their which is great . I enjoy all your videos because im into Exploring videos or videos on the making of a film like day of the dead and such because most of time I prefer hear the person who made it and not reviews or critics tell us the content in the film or bad reasons on hating the film because they didn't know how the film was made or tragic events that happen through out the filming and for what they going for . your Exploring videos I enjoy more because you search how it all got made and tell us how and all sorts of things . all I can say is thank you for this channel to be here

Love that you review these kinda movies, it's so hard to find a channel do what you do.

Children of Men is my favorite film, so I guess technically, this is also my favorite film, I guess. 🤔

About Children of men's similarities to this movie, I'd also like to put your attention towards a 1964 novel by Brian Aldiss called Greybeard, which is about a sterile aging population and there is a similar story of people fighting over the last children and pregnant women in a flashback.

New year, consistently awesome videos! Thanks for the time and research you put into them, you have no idea how much I love all of your videos! Keep up the great work!

OMFG thanks for mentioning Game Over! this movie had a VHS cover that traumatized me as a kid, where the main character is seen afraid and dirtied on the front and on the back there was a picture of the demented santa clause. Guess I'll have to watch it now that I remember which movie it is.

Hell yeah. This day has just in proved. *P.s thank you for answering my question.* 💪😎🇺🇸

2:54 Isn't that the guy that plays Karnak in the movie Endgame: Bronx lotta finale

I had a feeling that video clerk was Quentin Tarantino.

GoodBadFlicks always makes my Mondays AWESOME!

I've loved this film since the day I first watched it. Great to see your take on it.

Hey Man please do a goodbadflicks segment on Omega Doom it's a 1996 sci fi movie starring Rutger Hauer about andriod surviving a post apocalyptic world. Ps all your vids are awesome thanks for all the work you put in them.

I mean they aren't wrong in the commentary, there are groups on the internet who only seem to watch movies just to nit pick them to hell even if the nitpicks aren't correct. It's why I love this channel especially the Exploring Series, because it shines light on underrated films and what original intensions films had before studios ruined them

I like the idea of having a GBF review and an accompanying Exploring video. You usually do pretty good production notes on the main videos, but a deeper look is always welcome

I think I saw "Devil Fish" on MST3K

My absolute favourite good bad flick!

I loved the film so much but I never know the title of the movie and never managed to see the whole movie. Thanks to you I know the title and I will now try to watch the whole thing.

Cecil never disappoints. Love your chanel

I request an “Exploring Garth Marenghi’s Darkplace” video.

11:55 - I *LOVED* Lock Out with Guy Pearce! Now I know why, LOL!

Your videos are the shit! I wish you had this as your full time job. All your videos rock. You got a golden voice too :)

Loved the Updated Video Clip.... any chance we could see a future review of 1990: The Bronx Warriors, Escape from the Bronx... and similar 1980 Mad Max rip off explotative films

I somehow can't believe Carpenter was the one responsible for suing Lockout. I bet some lawyer saw some dollar signs and approached Carpenter who probably just said 'Sure, go ahead. As long as you send me a check'. Which is his attitude towards most movie related stuff these days.

Excellent video Cecil please review Dolls from 1987.

I love the idea of PD James watching this movie.

What about doing one on The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 1990? Its one you haven't done and is the best movie imo.

Blew my mind about the original French Home Alone!!

8:51 my mind has just been blown

Hey do a review of Wes Craven’s Swamp Thing (1982)

When I was a kid my dad bought the families first VCR, we had to go to a rental place that was far away and was very expensive. 2019 the fall of New York was the first movie we rented to watch on our brand new VHS machine. I remember the movie making me sad and later thinking "he raped her" and being totally confused about what to think of the ending. I watch Children of Men and I still hate it.

Be careful...2019 isn’t over yet. This could still happen!

I am a huge B-FF movie fan. I love your channel. And you got me to watch Running Scared. 👍👍

Will GBF be doing a review of Glass? It's my 1st must see of 2019, can't wait. :)

Loved the first review, sure I'll love this one!

It's not just budget that's the difference between 2019 and children of men. Children of men is just masterful.

The Boondock Saints (1990) or Split (2017)

7:16 When a movie from years ago makes Game of Thrones look like Eragon XD

the title for the movie was only a year off,.. kudos to the writer lol

Is there a popular mainstream movie that Ebert liked?

I used to go to Video Archives waaaaay back in the day. Quentin Tarantino used to recommend movies to my mom and me. They had a whole section devoted to classic horror and sci-fi from the 50's and 60's. I practically lived in that section. They later moved from Manhattan Beach to Redondo Beach. One day we went into the new location and they had Reservoir Dogs promo stuff all over the place. My mom asked about it and they said, remember Quentin? Well he got a movie made and we are promoting it. We rented it and... well... I was probably a bit young to fully appreciate it but I remember not hating it at least!

So game over is the original horror version of home alone....... damn i hope you review that this year.

Another great video, good sir! Not asking, but crossing my fingers that one day you'll do Tales From The Crypt: Bordello of Blood. One of my favorite good bad flicks. But I know there's just so damn many out there!

Luc Besson also ripped-off "Gloria" when he made "The Professional" but he did a great job.

To be fair to Children of Men (the book), 2019: After the Fall of New York is hardly the first story involving mass human sterilty. Brian Aldiss covered it in 1964's Greybeard and Arthur C. Clarke touched on it in Childhood's End (1953), though in both those cases the stories were about dealing with the loss rather than finding a solution.

To this day I still can't understand why the hell anyone ever listened to Roger Ebert or Gene Siskel. They were terrible fucking reviewers who more often than not were completely wrong about their conclusions.

Like Zombie,The Beyond and the others,80s Italian horror/was crazy entertaining!!!

Makes me wonder why I havent seen a "Hell comes to Frogtown" yet!!

Love the channel and subbed. I have a request on a weird and cheesy old movie, if you haven't covered it already. Deadly Friend, the one where the girl dies and gets a microchip implanted that brings her back but she starts killing anyone that ever messed with both her and the robot the chip came from before she died. A shout out to Mark Rodriguez wouldn't hurt. =D

Great Video as always. I was wondering tho, will you be doing an exploring videos on Battle Royal 1 & 2? I would be interested to hear what you think on the two films and anything you can dig up about how they was made.

I really would find a exploring video on Chronical real intresting. Its a pretty dope film and a personal favorite of mine

The soilders in white all have Barbarell's laser gun.

Had i known id still be doing this, Comic book guy "oh i've wasted my life!"

Wait so if was rated X and they had to cut stuff dose this mean there’s an uncut version or is it lost

Great work. loved it as usual. Absolutely insane with the Children of Men call outs.

It’s been so long, great!

“Talent borrows. Genius Steals!”

Here to a new episode of "Exploring..."! CHEERS!

I wonder if Ernest Cline took the name "Parzival" from this movie considering the book came out in 2011 while this movie is from 1983. Granted the spelling is different but when spoke they sound the same.

I can't help but notice that Bridgitte Kingsley is unrepresented in the GBF series. I think Dark Rising: Bring Your Battle Axe might be right up your alley.

YMS did an entire video on Kimba and the results were...no The Lion King didn’t rip it off. I wouldn’t say absolutes without proof but to be fair everyone was told that.

I doubt John Carpenter would sue over a lower budgeted movie like 2019

Would like to see you do Hands Of Steel or as it was called in my counrty Denmark- Querak

KZfaq demographics are way off, all the ads are in spanish! Awesome video mr. Cecil!

Good video. Even though he is already deceased, I feel that some of Roger Ebert's Movie reviews are really ridiculous!! But overall, he is good.

Valen Teen Moon YAAAAAY!

11:45 Wow, that's getting too close for comfort!

please review "Wax Mask" (love giallo) and Electric Dreams (super 80s movie, even has a music segment in Alcatraz)

Reb Brown reference. Somewhere in a basement Spoony is fuming about someone cutting into his long forgotten shtick

I didn't realize the lead actor was Michael Sopkiw. He looks way different without a mustache!

I've just got into these classic 'Exploitation' flicks recently, I've seen *2019: After the fall of New York* / *Deathrace 2000* / *Cherry 2000* and others, and I LOOOVE their visual-world style! and I was wondering if anyone had suggestions for other glorious classic B Movies? :)

do a video of the movie Virus from 1999, most underrated movie in the world, with amazing effects and the best use of CGI ive seen.

Any chance of The Wonderful Ice Cream Suit being explored on a future episode?

4:20 Barbarella guns!!
