Another movie that was a Monsteron watch party in the past year. This one is all right, as long as you keep your standards in check!

Naturally, the robots go bazerk and start terrorizing the kids!!! One of the killer robots is Pam "Foxy Brown" Grier, "cinema's first female action star"!

One of my favourite #Monsterdon films of the year so far.
I've not seen this one before. Is it about as good as Class of 1984? I saw that as a teenager in a late night show and loved it. I'll have to try to find time to watch this one.
Somewhere, someone made a lost of all the fulls with punk characters and I remember that being such a fun thing to read. I should find that again.

OK, wow, I totally saw this a few months ago and totally forgot. I just now started watching it and was like, wait, no. I've seen this, lol.
Found this nice long list of "punk films", which includes actual punkers in films (Decline of Western Civilization, Rock N Roll Swindle, etc...) and also films with punkers in them (Class of 1984, Repo Man, Nuke Em High, and such). I've seen a LOT of these!

This looks fun based on the first few minutes. Love the practical effects too.
Thanks for the archive link, I did not realise that YouTube show ads every 2.5 minutes now.
Check out that link about how to block ads, it's worth figuring out, I personally never use movie streams with ads.
I had a look, but I’m using an Android tablet at the moment (although, Firefox + UBlock might apply there?).
I have yt-download on the desktop so when i have more time i can go about it that way.
Yeah, I have Firefox on an android phone, then just look under "Extensions" and search for uBlock Origin.
Thanks I appreciate the tip!
uBlock Origin should work in Firefox, & there are also Android apps like PipePipe that block ads.
