I havent seen many movies like this. I can think of another one similar, but its too recent. 187 with Samuel Jackson. I am asking can you guys list me some similar movies, preferably 70s-80s? School movies, violence and stuff like that. I love the violent/exploitation flicks.

thanks

hello thanks. I caught some of the documentary on the dvd, but didnt get to finish it and I leant out the dvd, but he talked about some old films. Forget what they were called. He got lots of inspiration from older stuff I guess. Those might be worth checkin out. Until I get my dvd back, I wont know the titles, if someone has it and they watch the documentary please list them here.

Check out "The Warriors" from '79, good one!

Massacre at Central High was made in 1976,
and has a very similar story.It isnt as good as
Class of 1984 but still worth a look.

Hog Wild (1980) Trailer: www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nhq843q2LKM

I highly recommend Hog Wild for everyone who likes Class of 1984. It's hard to find High school Punk/Biker gang movie starring Michael Biehn. Here's free download link: http://fboom.me/file/4227a33d422ab/Hg80wld.rar It's VHS rip, but decent quality :) Also on YouTube: www.youtube.com/watch?v=gbHSx9mJdS8
