Reviews for Class of 1984
Alice Cooper sang the title song, which never hurts, but this movie is beyond saving.
Whether for its eighties nostalgia, or its absurdly reactionary violence, this is one guilty pleasure that still makes the grade.
It's sad, really, that a movie deemed horrific enough to be banned in several countries 25 years ago seems almost naïve by today's standards.
