Those were real 80s teens. Coke, barbs, and tanning just made everyone look 30 by the time they were 21. Lol.
Jason Miller is also the father of Joshua Miller, who starred in "Near Dark" and "River's Edge". Joshua co-wrote the slasher spoof "The Final Girls" as a tribute to his dad.

A lot of actors start out doing movies and TV shows without being noticed. Harrison Ford started out in bit parts and even as an extra in movies. I heard that Robert De Niro started doing "Troma" movies, the same people who brought us Toxic Avenger and such.

Gotta love these bizarre 80s flicks. Funny video, as always.
i remember watching a Slasher film that used a bunch of day for night footage . It was obvious that it was day for night. You could see girls sunbathing out in front of one of the buildings when it suppose to be the middle of the night.
Tim Robbins "damn" was my reaction when the plans for shady maples was cancelled.
Great stuff, can't believe I missed this movie and with that cast.
I really did not expected the "Mortis" joke, absolutely Epic :P
I actually have seen this, a long time ago. You’re right ...it’s wacky & all over the place, but weirdly somehow watchable. Hell Tracy Scoggins was in this , she could have used her connections & called in the A- Team.

The 'mortis' but comes from a game called Faith by New Blood interactive, and tickled me even before it clicked that the guy was from The Exorcist. Cecil cuts deep with his references and using the Faith bit was a top choice.
when this came out, for some reason, i thought this was about some kinds who were shrunken down to become literal toy soldiers.
LOVE the faith reference
It's always a good day when goodbadflicks uploads
It's kind of weird to see a serious actor like Jason Miller in a film like this. It's sad that his roll in Exorcist 3 was cut down because by that time he'd suffered from "Wet Brain" do to extreme alcoholism and couldn't remember his lines. RIP.

You need to do the 1991 Toy Soldiers. And Small Soldiers for good measure.
I love that one with Sean Aston and Louis Gossett Junior.
Ya know... If I didn't know any better, I'd say this is just the plot of Rambo 4.
5:20 Hey! The major from Robocop!!
wow! i reaaaaaaaaallly thought this was going to be the Toy Soldiers of the early 90s. Not disappointed, just surprised
Always a good day when good bad flicks uploads
Well now we know who ate all those beans.
So, I'm not the only one who remembers this. Dad had it on VHS that he taped off of Cinemax, and I've tried to find it, only to keep coming across the 1991 one. Now that I have a year, 1984, was able to find it online. Thank you so very much for the help.
In addition to his great acting roles, Jason Miller won a Pulitzer Prize for Drama, a Tony Award for Best Play, and was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor.
Now I just want the other Toy Soldiers flick. Loved that as a kid

It’s one thing to be stupid but stupid and self destructive……..PRICELESS!
Looks like Tim Robbins expected his frustrated fist to impact something/someone as punctuation on that "Damn" but it wasn't where he thought and that's the take they used...maybe even the only one they had considering the budget.
Just in time with my coffee....roll the reel !

It's from a retro-style game series called "Faith" where you play a priest and have to investigate hauntings and exorcise demons.
This title kinda sounds like a spin off of the movie Small Soldiers lol For a low budget film, its surprising to see some familiar faces here! I love it! For the heck of it, I think I'll give this one a watch! I mean, you can't ignore a film that has a rocket launcher that has a fart noise sound effect lol
Only the early squad remember when the title still said 'Soliders'
