He wears sunglasses all through the movie, including at night and indoors - except at the end when they ride away on the bike - in the sun.
Character development.
It’s total shite 😂😂
Superb observation
his vision was augmented
🎶 He wears his sunglasses at night.🎶
Though a product of its time, "Cobra" is still a great action flick. It definitely embraced all the fun with 80s action films.
Best line in the film is Cobra's reply when the grocery store killer says he'll blow the place up: "Go ahead, I don't shop here anyway".
“We are the future "
“No,you're history"
Best line ever!!!
Those glasses go great with Stallone’s facial structure.
Stallone has those deep eye sockets so yeah it works well
Brian Thompson is seriously underrated and underused. I love him in anything he's in.
So underrated that today he goes virtually unnoticed .
Sledgehammer! What a great show that was.
"Trust me, I know what I'm doing"
I saw Cobra in the theater twice, and it was violent enough for me. I was really surprised Andy Robinson wasn't one of the night slashers after seeing guys in suits during the synchronized clanging. I don't think I even noticed the changing road conditions. Three things in this movie stuck out for me: the rooftop meeting where Art LaFleur tells Cobretti "Do what you do best"; the crooked cop's reaction to the motorist's question as to whether she was drunk; and Robinson's reaction to the carnage at the end ("I would have used less... extreme methods.")
a cobra directors cut would be awesome with all the gore scenes
Indeed i feel like we should get to see what was removed.
I only saw this movie a couple years ago and I thought parts of the movie were missing because of how badly it jumped around. I think an extended cut would make this an action classic
They have kind of the extended cut online. Someone found all the deleted scenes, extras off tv showings and put them together. You'll know when you found it when part of the scenes are clearly VHS quality.
It's way way gorey.
Where's the link!?
@@thrillkill01 Warner Bros. ordered the cuts because they wanted more shows per day of *Cobra* to compete with *Top Gun* which opened a week earlier. This, of course, was before multiplexing. Bad decision though
what's great about Cobra is the car chase .... especially when he jumps through barriers from the top of the car park ... it really doesn't suspend my disbelief
Ingrid Knudsen is a pretty normal danish name, and Brigitte Nielsen is a danish actor, so it makes sense that they made her character danish too :)
I was about to write that !!! :)
Oh and the K is not silent. And the D is not pronounced like a T. It's a soft D.
Hmmm i always added the the T, K'Nud'tsen But yeah super normal name.
BarrySlisk
It's not Nut's-Son?
Too bad,...........I guess.
and its actually great name. but i suppose that name comment was a joke... not good one thou
"You know when this is over I'd like to celebrate by punching a hole in Montie's chest."

You got my thumbs up the minute you brought up Sledge Hammer, the greatest hero America has ever produced!
I loved the 50's Merc. It let you know Cobra was different...
I would so love to see the full extended version of Cobra.
There was a practice range directly across from the basement lunch room and Vice Squad offices in a precinct a friend worked at long ago. The armory as well.
This is STILL one of my favorite guilty pleasures. Another I believe that came off a bit restrained for what they were after. It needed more T&A, guts on the ground, something... still love it. And that '1911' he is carrying is a honey. I am not a fanboy but I always fancied it.
been watching this movie since it came out on video. That cutting the pizza with scissors scene is my favorite. it is ICONIC. there's even a gif of it floating around
Still one of my favorite Stallone flicks. Would love the director's cut to be a thing though.
Every time I see him cut that pizza I literally laugh out loud.
I used a pair of scissors to cut a slice to fit in a toaster oven and was like 'I'm exactly like Cobra now' lol
Cobra absolutely should have a sequel!
And as far as I'm concerned. Its not to late.
Brian Thompson has always been one of my favourite "actor with a particular face" ever. He's been criminally under employed. His depiction of the nightslasher is really awesome when you think about it, he looks always on the edge, definitely psycho and has a threatening voice.
One of the best movie posters ever
I love Cobra. The freezer exit still beguiles me to this day (along with the scissor pizza cutting). Freezers typically only have one entrance/exit. Still, it's an 80's action film. Blatant disregard of logic is part of its charm.
Brian Thompson was one of the 3 punks in The Terminator, along with Bill Paxton & someone else.
he was also the vessel in buffy season 1
+Nala Fira he also came back to buffy in season 2 to play The Judge!
@@justj2440 Didn't he also play Shao Kahn in the Mortal Kombat: Annihilation movie?
Yup. And Buffalo Bob in joe dirt. And a kilingon in TNG
@@jasoncropley5334 yes. also played an alien tough guy in a bar in Alien Nation the film.
I laughed hard for no real reason when you put that sudden cut to Judge Dredd "I AM THE LAW!!"
"He blew up all the honeydew and Crystal Pepsi" I couldn't stop laughing!!!! 😂😂😂😂👍
Cobra only wants the one bit of pizza because of the 80's miami cocaine diet
Cutting that pizza like that was code for 1980's Miami cocaine diet
Jack Rae do you cut your pizza with scissors
@@deivymaybe7554 I use garden shears myself
Before even starting this, our favorite game from Cobra was trying to count all the dead bodies in the end fight.
The author of Hokuto no Ken (the fist of the North star) manga said numerous times Cobra is one of the inspirations for Kenshiro, the main character. This and mad max among other things. And Bruce Lee. I mean, imagine a mix of cobra and Bruce Lee fighting in mad max's future and you have a basic synopsis of the series. And it is as awesome as it sounds
That hatred reference 👌🏻
+Spartacushion Jordan Kenney :)
That was fucking hilarious. I'm glad I'm not the only one who thought the trailer was comedy gold.
I love how he twirls a semi automatic pistol like a six shooter.
Yay, someone else made a Sledge Hammer reference! Now I need to actually watch some of that show again for the first time in a quarter century.
Good Bad Flicks earns bonus points for making that reference, a reference that most people today won't get.
We can trust him, he knows what he's doing.
That show was great. Sledgehammer and The Adventures of Briscoe County Jr are so underrated
This is one of THE movies that defined 80's action movie tropes.
It's great 80s movie, it fitted perfectly with Schwarzenegger's "Commando" on 180 minutes VHS cassette.
But nowhere near as good.
Those stats were worse than, Mega City One crime, in Stallone's Judge Dredd.
I love when Olmos tells him he's gonna blow the place up, and Cobretti says, "Go ahead, I don't shop here." 😜
That scene where Cobra says "Bhu hu luh luh unh huh-uh" to the chief was pretty hilarious.
Brian Thompson rules.
He rules this world.
He’s also ruler of Outworld .
Hired To Kill is a lot of fun.
Dont know of many others with Brian Thompson in a lead role.
If I made movies, there'd always be at least one scene where the music was completely inappropriate. Like, that final scare moment that's part of so many horror movies but then "Girls just wanna have fun" starts playing "unironically". I just love those moments.
Always liked Brian Thompson whenever he shows up. He's a great actor, and he always seems to make more out of his performance than just what the script offers. Wish actors like him showed up in more films (as opposed to Stallone).
The Night Slasher's knife was the coolest part of the movie. A knife with built-in spikey brass knuckles? Yes, please.
Even with the cut of the motive, Night Slasher is the most memorable character in this movie. Brian Thompson does a great job with the material he's given.
Cobra is one of the must-see action flicks. I always have it be a part of my marathons, usually between Lethal Weapon 2 and Raw Deal.
I know I kinda let it too.
Lethal weapon 1-4 > Cobra
Dao Yang
1 and 2 are, but 3 & 4, aren't as good for me, as I saw Cobra as a kid when it came out, and I loved the one liners, and dark tone of the whole movie.
There is a movie called Black Cobra, or Cobra Nero, made about a year within Cobra, with Fred Williamson as Malone, in a Phillipine production of the same script.
It's fun, and it does the sequels, where he goes to the Philippines in both 2 and 3.
All great, "grab a bowl of popcorn, and try not to think too much, and you'll enjoy yourself! I'd add The Swayze dual epics Roadhouse and Next of kin! also check out Charles Bronson's Ten to Midnight!
I wish the longer version was released! Brian Thompson makes for a great villain, cut story or not. But hey, cutting pizza with scissors isn't weird, is it? I do it all the time, so much simpler than breaking out the utensils.
A classic underrated sly character in some ways I really wish Sly would've play ''Dredd'' the same way he played ''Cobra''IMO. Awesome episode Cecil
Fun Fact: That match later appears in Deadpool.
"Join the NIGHTSLASHERS" flyer made me laugh out loud
bonus points for reminding me of that awesome Sledgehammer! theme song
I fucking love Cobra.
"Cobra" is like the no name brand name beer you buy when "Commando" is not available; you will still get drunk, but have a worse hangover for drinking it (watching it). Cheers to Cobra! Classic!!
You forgot to mention how cool the soundtrack on Cobra is, it fits the scenes in the movie well in my opinion and is pure 80's cheese (The good kind)
I love this movie. I have to watch the grocery store scene every time it comes on.
When it comes to John Wayne's real name, I always remember this exchange of Hank Hill and a character, whose name I can't remember so I will call him "O.G. for other guy
O.G.: "John Wayne's real name was Marion."
Hank Hill: "You take that back!"
You want a life preserver, 'cause your french fries are drowning there.
Love this movie. Loud, dumb, and a lot of fun. Great review!
still have that Cobra knife!
"Where are we going?" ...... "To get you some NON-mom jeans I HOPE!" 😂😂😂😂
The only thing I remember about this movie is Cobra cutting cold pizza with scissors and eating it. Out of all the funny and random things in the film, this was something I haven't seen before (or after).
B. Alex Thompson I noticed that also, for some reason in the 80s cold pizza was a big thing. Ever see Jason Voorhees cut a slice of pizza.
B. Alex Thompson It always stood out to me, too. I remember thinking that a guy his size could EASILY eat a whole slice of pizza, LoL.
Lol! That and the dude getting hung on the fucking hook. So satisfying.
B. Alex Thompson I do it all the time. Maybe I picked it up from the movie as a kid or maybe it's just something natural.
+Adam Coffland yeah that is odd .... you would think cobra would be eating raw steak or drinking a protein shake and looking at his muscle definition in the mirror or something ....
Take that electric soda! I laughed out loud a couple of times watching this
:)
While watching the movie on VHS back in the day, my wife and I counted Stallone’s kills during the finale. It was kind of.....over the top, see what I did there?
Love the Hatred reference :D
I like several youtubers, movie reviewers, but I think your overall presentation, and humor is the best.
Man, I miss the 80's.
"MAKE AMERICA THE 80S AGAIN"
I miss 80's montages.
The Greaties
rick valentino
And the cheese songs that accompany them.
Karate Kid tournament montage, might have the seminal, cheese montage song.
80's to mid 90's was the golden age of action nonsense movies, good times indeed I miss those days
I watched this movie dozens of times as child. It would be a blast to have a release with all the cut footage. Btw, I'm a silent follower of the channel... Bloody great job! Love the stuff. Some friend and me have been watching "good bad films" for like 17 years and posting destructive reviews on a small blog eversince. This is pretty much like the youtube version of it.
Great review of awesome and all time action cult classic! I used to only like Cobra because i considered it to be a very good action movie but over time i grew to like it more and more and became huge fan of it. I hate when people are putting it down. So what if it has some minor issues (mainly the very obvious choppy editing in places), it is still a kickass and extremely fun. I really think that action sequences are some of the best of the 80's, and great cinematography is one big reason why i think it stands out from many other action films of same time. People give credit to Jack Cardiff for the work he did on Stallone's previous hit Rambo 2 but i think that Ric Waite did a much better job with cinematography on Cobra. Some of the visuals are surpringly good for movie like this one. I think you're right, there was originally much better film which unfortunately Warner Brothers didn't care for and sadly, neither did Stallone. I am a fan of him but some of the stuff he did in the past and present with re-editing films like this and Nighthawks because of his ego really pisses me off, specially when he claims he tried to make his films better but in the end he only helped ruin them.
Warner Bros, and many other studios like Miramax and Universal, are infamous for tempering with their films by taking them from directors and re-cutting them. Over the years i did lot of research about WB films and i quickly noticed large amount of reports and official info about their habit of doing exactly that. I recommend reading about some other films which they took away and re-edited to find out more. Here are some examples; Hard To Kill and Out For Justice were originally lot longer and with more plot parts, Demolition Man was originally over two hours long and had more action scenes, released version of Tango & Cash is actually a "butcher's cut" of the film put together by two different editors as a result of constant re-editing of combined footage filmed and re-shot by 4 different directors over 4 months of filming, Showdown In Little Tokyo was infamously re-edited from original 100-some minutes long running time down to 79 minutes, Deadly Friend (which came out the same year as Cobra) was also re-cut and very badly edited with re-shot scenes resulting in another choppy film...
Btw, i have a video on my channel that has some deleted scenes from Cobra so check it out if you want to.
7:02 Entire car chase was originally much longer, which explains all the continuity mistakes in theatrical version, including that huge fuck up. Slasher and other guy originally crashed first and jumped out of the car right before Cobra crashed into it. If you notice, when he exists the car after the crash Cobra is looking at completely opposite side from the one where editing makes it look like Slasher's car went.
Holy Shit, The Touch was originally for this and NOT Transformers? Man, this is my favorite non-Rocky, non-Rambo Sly flick and I didn't think I could love it any more than I already do. Thanks for giving me another reason.
The best part of this flick is the 1950 rat rod merc/the sub
No more like the lines including yeah but just a little.
This entire movie is a great unique action movie.
I laughed at the comments you made at the name Ingrid Knudsen, those are common first and last names in Scandinavia.
Damnit, I just wish *I* could assemble an insane cadre of maniacs to do my bidding with no tangible benefit to themselves, as inexplicably easily as the Night Slasher did...I wouldn't even want to use them for EVIL. Just, like, light housekeeping, and running errands.
"Excellent, my fiery paracletes! The world shalt howl your name in love and terror...now, go to the supermarket, and pick up a box of raisins! Oh! And some Pepsi, too, but only if it's on sale!"

We eat the whole slice!
There was a great movie here.
It's time we get to see it.
It's time for an extended cut of Cobra to be released.
If Stallone can go to all the trouble to rework Rocky IV (not one of his best films, but became one of his best films with his extended cut), why not Cobra?
Cobra was Stallone's homage to an all time great film, "Dirty Harry".
Why should he want Cobra's legacy to be one of half measures, which is what the theatrical cut is.
Come on Mr. Stallone!
It's time for "Cobra: the Ultimate Marion Cobretti Cut" !!!!
Saw this movie not more than a month ago, and I remember seeing this movie when i was a kid, and I remember it was way more violent, So I called up my mom, and asked her what the deal was, and she said that the one that I saw, was a "VHS cut" of the movie that had a lot of the violence from the X-rated version, and a longer runtime, than the 90 (or so) minutes than this version...
I have to visit her to see if she stiol has that VHS tape, so I can rip it, and watch it again in it's "intended" form :D
jimmi der I had that same version of the movie myself when i was younger. I still remember some uncut scenes like hook being stabbed into Nightslasher's back and lot more bullet hits during the final shootout. I have also been looking for that version quite a few years now, so good luck to us both then in finding it.
Thank you... At least I am not the only one who rermembers the wierd shit ;)
Yeah... good luck bro :D
jimmi der If it is an X-Rated version that you have with a longer running time, then PLEASE rip it and so forth. I would beg for a copy, pay money for a copy, or whatever. I'm a huge fan of Cobra (one of my favorite films) and am dying to see that.
Come to think about it I might have the VHS of Cobra myself. I have to look now.
It's been 3 years man, please tell us if it's the X-rated version or not.
Thank Cobra for Kung Fury. Some of the best 80’s camp in cinema.
We must see the director's cut of Cobra. Maybe next year on the 30th anniversary blu-ray?
+MrDman21 The director's cut of Cobra will be a masterpiace.
Hell yeah!
+MrDman21 Totally agree but I doubt that it will ever happen. But if they did, the movie would probably make as much money or more than on it's original release. It's the implied killings and cut away violence that spoils the film for me, go on ramp up the gore, give us some good old gratuitous violence and make this a hit all over again.
If Stallone approves it then it might get released.
We've ended up getting heaps of footage thought to be lost or never to see the light of day, and in HD on blu-ray, i'm holding hope that one day we'll get it!
I love this film. One of those great popcorn flicks for a rainy Saturday afternoon.
Fred Williamson was in Cobra Nero, or Black Cobra, which was made not long after, based on the same story, and it seems, the script as well. It's fun, and they do many of the same scenes, with some different stuff.
There were 3 sequels, 2 of which I saw, where he goes to the Philippines, which is where the first Bkack Cobra was filmed, to be L.A.
Damn, I watch this movie like four years ago, but watching every since in the review feels like deja vu Like I just seen the film. It's a good feeling.
I still like this movie despite its little flaws.
I mean i always liked cop movies where the character stands out from the rest of the other police officers. Like the ones who carry different but unique firearms, or fight crime and solve cases their own way. That's what makes a good cop movie.
if this movie had a good villian, a better soundtrack and a little longer it might have been another franchise for stallone.
Shout out to my very favorite show, "Sledge Hammer!"
You made my day.
It's a common name but an Ingrid Knudsen was a botanic artist who, using sketches and a skin provided for her, created the first image of a Cobra that most people saw.
That car completely throws this movie off especially with the plate 🤣
It's not REMOTELY a 'bad' movie. It's an outstanding, bordering-on-GREAT movie....
Your commentary and jokes were so spot on. I cracked up
They must have put some of those scenes back in for the video release. I distinctly remember the hands being delivered to the cops when I watched this as a kid.
All of us 80's boys loved Cobra.
I remember watching this in the theaters in my youth and it was sometimes perplexing. I dunno if it got even more cuts in Sweden but, for example, I remember there being a guy trying to shoot Cobra with a rifle with a laser sight in the foundry and later he's just .... not there. He wasn't killed off or anything, he just disappeared from the movie. It happened to more of them but he was the most "wtf? where did that guy go???"
Even though he is an underdeveloped character, we still liked Brian Thompson as the villain. He does a really good job of being scary.
Tragic that we'll never get to see the full version of COBRA - it's already 80s ridiculous glory, the full uncut movie would be A M A Z I N G !
(I shall clink my cult-axes together over my head, in memorial of this) :(
I know I love a channel when I want to see you do a video on The Punisher with Dolph Lundgren. Puhleeeeeeeze?
Made in Australia.
This movie would be Perfect for this channel
I remember watching this in the movie theater when I was 7 years old. It was a double feature with Karate Kid 2! I miss the 80s, no holds barred!
Syncronized axe tapping!! Lmao! :)
If you can't love this film....shit, we can't be friends.
Brian Thompson has also done some voice acting work for cartoons. He voiced the main villain Dreadwing in Dragon Flyz and he is AWESOME! Luckily the show is on RUclips and I highly recommend it.
I was 8 when this movie came out and have loved it since. I remember having a Cracked magazine with a parody of this movie called Cobrat. This movie has a great car chase and awesome soundtrack.
This movie was scary as hell when I was a kid.
Night slasher gang doing their axerobics!.. lol that was perfect man..
They have kind of the extended cut online. Someone found all the deleted scenes, extras off tv showings and put them together. You'll know when you found it when part of the scenes are clearly VHS quality.
It's way way gorey.
I had a feeling you were gonna talk about this one and you did it well. This was the first Stallone film I watched and it's always been a personal favorite of Stallone's films for me.
I'm surprised you didn't mention that two actors from the original Dirty Harry film were in this movie: Reni Santoni and Andrew Robinson. It was amusing to see the latter, who played Scorpio in Dirty Harry, play an arsehole cop.
I only saw this fully a couple of years back, I was at my folks place & My Dad was watching it. Up till then I had only seen parts of it, I enjoyed it as a balls to the wall 80's action flick, although I have to say I would like to see the full uncut version now you've told us all about it, as it sounds much better.
Yesss. One of the greatest movies ever.
Coming from commenting back to you on evil dead, and I have to say that here the name of the channel is exactly right.
This is a good bad flick. In fact it's an awesome terrible flick
Yay! Thanks for sticking around :)
@@GoodBadFlicks You're welcome. Nice channel, good video's, even the name of the channel doesn't fit all the movies.
George's son Panos is the writer and director of Beyond the Black Rainbow, inspired by George's death and funded with Tombstone residuals, and Mandy about his mother. Just an amazing duology.
If not for Stallone's massive ego, this could have been a gritty actionfest.
