  Class of 1984

  £175.00

  “Look at us. We are the future. You can’t stop us. Don’t even try.”

  1980’s exploitation at its very best…Mark Lester’s 1982 offering “Class of 1984” has gone on to become a true cult classic. Based around the ultra-violent students of Lincoln High it is a time capsule snap shot of a totally different generation; Mad Max meets The Sex Pistols is the tone and look and the poster that accompanied the release echoes this. The original UK quad offered here is from 1982  & looks incredible, an almost flawless example of a very hard to find poster. Originally folded (as issued). The artwork is impressive (The artist is unknown which is a shame because this is a great example from the 80’s). The bright colours of the outrageous costumes are deep and unfaded and background a bright unfaded white. It is a great looking poster perfectly attuned to the feel and look of the movie & the times. Very rare and hard to find in such excellent original unrestored condition. This example displays superbly and represents an extremely collectable piece of original 1980’s cinema memorabilia.

  Trivia: Mark L. Lester said the film was inspired by several true stories of school violence he had read about in papers. In particular, was a story of a teacher who brought a gun to class to control his students, the scene ended up in the film.
