Title: "Move To The City" featured in crappy 80's action film
Post by: nightrain_jh on February 27, 2007, 03:39:08 AM
Watched a film last night called "American Ninja 2: The Confrontation" (I know you're gonna rush out for the dvd aren't you?.  Anyway, about 5 mins in and the hero of the film (Michael Dudikoff) is getting picked up in a car.  The driver slaps on the radio and what's he playing?...................none other than our very own Guns N' Roses - "Move To The City".  Most of the song is played during the car ride.

Anyone else know about this?

Michael Dudikoff... damn, I forgot all about him. He is the B action movie king... always enjoyed his movies, they where kinda funny.

i own this movie on tape its a great bad action movie. i remember when i bought it and g n r came on... i was so pumped, i had to check the date as well very early g n r. another good g n r reference in a bad action movie is from the frank zagarino classic 'never say die'

http://imdb.com/title/tt0113964/

at one point this government military dudes are hellacoptering in to smoke this aggressive religious cult and the guy says something about how nasty these people are and the line goes something like this: "these are exactly flower children here people, we're talking guns and roses"

its great and i think its available on DVD.

According to this, 25,000 were pressed, but only 10,000 were sold.

I remember watching those American Ninja movies back in the 80's with my dad - bad movies, great action and fighting, no plot whatsoever. Man, growing up in the 80's was fun... : ok:

I think I have to track down those movies on DVD. ;D
