I watched this after The Class of 1984 looking for a similar dystopian sci-fi treat. I must say, that I was not disappointed. It's not bad at all for a straight to video cheese fest. The effects were actually quite good, and there were some reasonable actors in the film, including Malcolm McDowell and Pam Grier. John P. Ryan made a fantastically insane history teacher. Entertaining moments were to be had realising what the film-maker believed kids would be wearing in the dystopian hell of 1999 as well. Lots of bad makeup, shoulder-pads and hair-dye seem to be the norm. The effects were also surprisingly good However, I think most of the budget of this film probably went into blowing up cars. On the whole I would definitely recommend this film for a chilled night in to giggle to.
