COBRA 1986 George P Cosmatos

[Demoncrat]

avoided it like the proverbial plague at the time, due to it sparking a fashion trend! ahem. watched it a few tears back and thought it was one of the campest films id ever seen, homoeroticism just seeping into every frame.

does it still have that soft focus when he's in his apartment?

I last watched it on DVD - the badly transferred DVD and can't remember. Cobra - for me, is sh*t but good sh*t. It manages to make Bridget Nielsen look sexy then look as if she's been out drinking for a week They seem to spend more time on making Stallone look good. He has some terrible lines. What is up with that scene with the bobble head, at an outdoor market stall? Awful!
But I like the music and some of the action's not bad too. Anyone know what it was that was cut, saving me the trouble of googling it?

When Stallone pours the gasoline on a guy at the end, the BBFC removed the line "you have right right to remain silent" before he drops the match on the guy. It reallty was a stupid cut.

Was that it? it was hardly worth it. I thought it was going to be a series of knife entry scenes, not one line.

Can't have an officer of the law saying something like that and then roasting someone alive. It's just not civilized Sometimes you have wonder what planet the BBFC live on.

I can just see Ferman, "It's fine he burns the baddie to a husk, but we really can't have this Stallone being witty, who does he think he is...James Bond, where's my scissors" the BBFC protecting the vulnerable from wise cracks.

How many of you Cobra geeks bought this cool collectors knife set with a themed wooden box?

I have 2x of this knife set.
Still looks very cool after many years.
This knife set is NLA.

Last year a MKII knife set was reliesed without Cobra metal emblem ontop of the lid.
This was a lesser collectors set.
Luckily I have the 2x genuine sets.
