School is back in session, and this week we’re flunking out of reality with a double feature of academic anarchy: Classof 1984 (1982) and Class of 1999 (1990). Two movies, two decades apart, same message: high school is the worst.
First up is Mark L. Lester’s Class of 1984, starring Perry King, Timothy Van Patten, and a very young Michael J. Fox. It’s a gritty tale of punks, classroom chaos, and teachers who have officially had enough. We’re talking gang violence, courtroom drama, and a soundtrack by Alice Cooper that absolutely shreds.
Then we crank the absurdity dial with Class of 1999, also directed by Lester, where robot teachers go full Terminator on the student body. Featuring Pam Grier, Stacy Keach rocking a mullet-rat-tail-combo, and Malcolm McDowell as the world’s most exhausted principal. Basically, it’s RoboCop meets after-school detention.
The guy’s debate whether a punk army with switchblades is scarier than Pam Grier’s robot arm, if Michael J. Fox was already plotting Back to the Future during filming, and how Stacy Keach somehow looks both 40 and 400 years old at the same time.
