@@ThreadBomb Many people too young to even remember the 80s still love it. One of the reasons why Stranger Things is such a hit across multiple generations.
I totally love how this channel is not restricted to horror and action which were the most prominent exploitation genres but also examines other genres as in-depth and sincerely: a true love for cinema in it's best, worst and our favorite: in-between of those two. As for "Revenge of the Nerds", isn't it more of a genre crossover, ftting in both fraternity/college movies and sex comedies? (I mean, I'm mainly bringing these five cents because I think that the former part is where ROTN shines much more then in the latter). Also that was the most unexpected Kane Hodder cameo I've ever seen. And I've seen some pretty unexpected Kane Hodder cameos.
Your videos are literally impeccable. Any fan of movies couldn’t wish for anything better than the videos you make. Please keep it up. Your work is phenomenal.
So let me see if I got this right. You're review of Hardbodies is so hilarious that it makes me want to see the film and the studio is blocking this video from being posted due to copyright law. Nice going, knuckleheads!
I was in my mid to late teens when all these movies were in their heyday, and even though I was a girl, they never bothered me. They were often funny, didn't take themselves seriously. They made no apologies for what they were and that was fine. Another great video Cecil!!!!!!!!! Hey, I knew I recognized Scotty (Grant Cramer) - he was in New Year's Evil! Bad movie, but he was a cutie!
Speaking as someone who was a kid in the 80's, "hardbodies" was a term so widely known that even 12 yr old me and my friends were familiar with it. Probably because it was mainly used by douchey yuppie types and the press and media were obsessed with yuppies back then.
Thanks for censoring that guys shorts near the start, but I think the guy in the gold g-string needed it more! But anyway, thanks for another great review! I wish I had money to give you but at the very least I can tell you that your (very) hard work is appreciated and that I always look forward to your great content! Thanks again, boss!
Well now I'm bummed. I usually check out IMDB after watching one of Cecils reviews and just saw that Teal Roberts, the actress who played Kristi died last year. Great review as always though. It brought back memories of watching this on HBO in the middle of the night.
This and an ample supply of Jack Daniel's have managed to make my Monday a bit better. I wish I could bring JD to work and say "It's just iced tea." Being in retail sucks sometimes. No, a LOT. Yes, I am tipsy as I write this.
There’s a major flaw with this flick that only becomes apparent as you get older. Washboard abs and dimples simply cannot compete with a large bankroll. It sucks, but in real life, the rich tend to come out ahead and on top. These schmucks never would’ve needed Scotty’s help.
The other flaw with this is that the skills needed to make that money are often the same skills needed to pick up chicks, so if they were wealthy of their own making, they would have been more than capable of picking up women themselves.
I'm willing to bet most of the girls attracted to one man's 'large bankroll' is probably still gettin her some "washboard abs and dimples" on the side.
Finally got around to this one and it was a blast. You should cover Fraternity Vacation. That Barbara Crampton and Kathleen Kinmont scene is an all timer.
Aaah the 80s where people weren't all models with bodies out of a comic, hair styled to perfection, dressed in designer and teeth so white youll go blind looking at them too long. No the good looking guys and girls had a mess of hair, bodies that werenormal verging onout of shape other than athlete, teeth pionting in different directions and clothes from a charity shop. Everyone looked relatively human gotting more so down the cast you got u til it got into freakshow territory when you got to the comedy, geeky and quirky character. Ah 80s where humans watched humans who had sex like they were bbrrrrrrrrrrrrr freezin!
Reminds me of the god-awful John Travolta film cashing in on the workout craze, "Perfect". The video box bore the immortal line: "Aerobics, more sex than sweat?"
4:50 "Isn't that where they make ranch dressing?" -Cecil Yes, Cecil. That IS where they make the 'ranch dressing'. Think about that the next time you order a salad.
This is probably a silly question: Are you familiar with Andy Sidaris? He created an entire cinematic universe of B-movies in the 80s. Some of the most spectacular B-movies ever made. I would adore for you to watch and review them. (Unless you already have.) Btw, your videos are some of the best on all of youtube. You're not obnoxious, and you back up your opinions. I'm also a fan of how many facts and side-notes you squeeze into these videos. keep up the good work. You earned a new sub.
It was an okay sex comedy for the time, though the others you showed were better. Unfortunately, the great soundtrack has never been officially released, even though there is supposed to be a super rare LP out there in the world somewhere. At this time, I've only been able to locate 14 of the 27 songs heard in the film. Most of Vixen's tracks are available, with the exception of two - "Be With Me" and "Mr. Cool". It would be great if the other missing tracks eventually surfaced here on YT.
Im confused by your comment. Do you mean you wish you could find a physical copy of either cd or vinyl of an official Hard Bodies soundtrack, or that youve just been unable to find the songs from the sountrack anywhere period cause in last 5 min ive found all 28 songs used in the movie.
@@andrewstacy9094 There is supposed to be a very hard-to-find vinyl LP of the soundtrack available, as noted at the end of the movie's credits. At this time, only 14 of the film's songs have been made (recorded from the film with dialog audio) or officially released. I have all of those. If you somehow found all 28, I'd love to know where.
Dude could you please review a 90's movies GOTCHA. It got big for a short time, but almost nobody talking about it now. Besides it really ear catching soundtrack "Gotcha !!!...", nobody seems to recall the movie it came with.
I really think you should do a video on Euro Trip. Good flick with an interesting backstory and cool Cameos from Matt Damon, Lucy Lawless, Vinnie Jones, and Fred Armisen
I went to see this with like 20 friends back in 84. We were causing mayhem, laughing, throwing popcorn and buckets and we got everyone in the theater following suit. It was a scene you don't forget. We had a great theater in a strip mall called Movie City 5. We'd meet there on Friday nights and weekends to meet gals, drag race and see tons of films. We were goofballs. I saw some of the best 80s flix there. Word of mouth drew in the crowds. Good memories of a long gone era.
I already own a double feature DVD of both these films, but yesterday I got that four-pack Blu-Ray which includes HARDBODIES. Also SPRING BREAK, which I also have on DVD. I mostly just got it for PRIVATE RESORT and PERFECT. And it was only $4.99, so it was a good deal.
Apparently James Karen from Return of the Living Dead is in the sequel. And on the subject of 80's sex comedies, anybody here ever seen Hollywood Hot Tubs starring Jewel Shepard, also from Return of the Living Dead. What is up with Return of the Living Dead cast members starring in 80's sex comedies?
You missed mentioning that the sexy realtor was played by 1970s cult B-movie queen Roberta Collins. She starred in epics like The Big Doll House, Women In Cages, Death Race 2000 etc.
I remember back in the 80's my older cousins were watching this movie and I was in the room only about 8 and was quit impressed at all the topless women I saw! 😀.
Cecil, I am off to the beach to check out (pulls 80's shades half way down) some Hard-bodies (TM)......it will be radical. I am also wearing a belly shirt for max effect.
Do a review or exploring video about Roger Coreman's 1993 science fiction film Carnosaur, based off of a new of the same name written by Harry Adam Knight. Also you're one of my most favorite RUclipsrs. *Sorry I'm using my new account, because some things happened*

That's nostalgia talking.

So let me see if I got this right. You're review of Hardbodies is so hilarious that it makes me want to see the film and the studio is blocking this video from being posted due to copyright law. Nice going, knuckleheads!
I can see it though. Is this blocked in yours?
My reply above was on the Good Bad Flicks patreon page about a week ago. Cecil said that the video was being held up by the studio at the time.

"Hardbodies" is one of the most used words in the American Psycho novel.
Hardbody, sodium and videotapes =)
Bret Easton Ellis and his references never let down
Was about to point it out too. Bateman is obsessed OBSESSED with the concept.
Speaking as someone who was a kid in the 80's, "hardbodies" was a term so widely known that even 12 yr old me and my friends were familiar with it. Probably because it was mainly used by douchey yuppie types and the press and media were obsessed with yuppies back then.
You hear it used a few times in the movie adaptation as well, but not nearly as much as in the book.
Beach Jesus needed his own movie
Marcus Zyker but he will return in Infinity Wars part 2
Yeah! Praise be to the beach JESUS!
so sad such movies dont get made anymore
Had this on VHS back in the day. watch this movie at least once a week on DVD now lol.
It's on blu ray now with a cool vhs styled slip cover.
That makeover was CLASSIC! XDDDDD
*HardBodies* is just the PERFECT silly slice of 1985 - Love it!
Scotty doesn't know
That Fiona and me do it in my van every Sunday?
She tells him she's in church but she doesn't go
Still shes on her knees and scotty doesnt know.
Didn't know VIXEN was on this movie back in the day. They blew up at the end of the heavy metal era around the late 80's.
We need a Good Bad Flicks of Private Resort!

There's always an odd-ball ginger in these flicks 😂👏
Moving Violations was a great movie that is kinda been forgotten over time.

You know what you're truly made of by who's attracted to you when you're broke
Nah these women fuck almost every guy these days.
A movie so 80s, even the balconies have neon.
You gotta love these 80s teen movies! Great review man! I hope to see this one if I come across it! : )
07:16 - "Hunter displays his new pickup manoeuvre: ..THE SUPER MEGA ULTRA CREEP" ....I completely lost it there LMAO!!
It was these types of movies that gave the real sex-ed to pre-teens
And the wrong one at the same time.
Cringing one scene then laughing the next. Sums up 90 percent of the late night movies I watched over summer breaks.
Is Ashby the guy who played Kane in Robocop 2?

Glad you finally got this video cleared!!
Reminds me of the god-awful John Travolta film cashing in on the workout craze, "Perfect". The video box bore the immortal line: "Aerobics, more sex than sweat?"
But it inspired the awesome Eric Prydz video from the 2000s
Great f****** movie

I literally just watched this tonight and I loved it!
I remember reading an article in Playboy with the same name. It was about the culture of that area.
2:03 That's actually Michael Rapport who's playing Rounder. FYI.
14 year old me approves ;] Also where is your Damnation Alley video? I recently re-watched it, and wanted to see your take on it again also.
Plenty of T and A.
Hardbodies actually began as an article in Playboy.

I thought the short fat guy was Jason Alexander
I thought the exact same thing when I first saw him.
I thought Hunter was Tim Curry
"Hardbody" just makes me think of American Psycho
Dear Cecil, please do a video of the ultimate Chuck Norris movie "Invasion USA" God Bless you and keep up the good work.
Ah the days when everything didn't offend everyone!

Mill Creek is releasing Hardbodies on Blu-Ray in January 2019.
Couldn't make a major release movie like this anymore. 😒😔
Please do a video about Iron Sky - it has pretty low score on imdb and rotten tomatoes but imo the movie was brilliant for what it was - really fun!

Excellent video Cecil please review Phantasm 2.
that's the name of the gym in "Burn After Reading" 😁
The only way this should end is with a call to the police... 😂 Absolutely hilarious.
Are you gonna review Forbidden World aka Mutant from 1982???
Was Rag the same actor who played Malachi in Children of the Corn?
yes
These mid 80s T&A bikini movies I used to watch on tv in the late 80s as a new teen, and yep, I used to toss off to them.
Hey, would you consider doing a review of One Crazy Summer, or maybe Secret Admirer (1985)?
6:01 ...made me choke on smoke. Dammit Cecil.
I'm convinced. You should try Secret Admirer.
Patrick Bateman definitely watched Hardbodies. It's his type if movie.
I didn't think the ginger from Children of the Corn could be creepier...thanks for proving me wrong.
Outlander!!!
Can you possibly review The Beach Girls from 1982???
Do a review or exploring video about Roger Coreman's 1993 science fiction film Carnosaur, based off of a new of the same name written by Harry Adam Knight.

Better than part two which was also nice
Scotty's next stunning career role is Killer Klowns From Outter Space.
