Spiral Zone is a 1987 animated sci-fi series that blends action, dystopian storytelling, and futuristic tech. Set in the year 2007, the show follows an elite team known as the Zone Riders as they battle the evil Overlord and his Black Widows, who have enslaved much of the world using a mind-controlling bio-weapon called the Spiral Zone. With its dark tone, advanced animation for the time, and unique character designs, Spiral Zone stands out as one of the most underrated and mature 80s cartoons — a must-watch for fans of retro action and sci-fi animation.

01:06Zone riders
01:08Looks like we're coming to a commercial
01:09Let's fight the zone
01:14Oh, I gotta tell you, Commander
01:22If things don't get any more exciting
01:24I'll probably fall asleep
01:26Come on, Max
01:28You know how important this duty is
01:29That is right, Max
01:31We must protect Dr. Lawrence and his scientists
01:33We must find the on field tests
01:35Multiple targets
01:37Headed this way
01:38Stage one alert
01:39Zone alert
01:43Get it
01:43Okay, everyone, we're going in, so stay on your toes
01:55Throw them away from Dr. Lawrence's crew
02:15A's are back
02:19Watch out behind you
02:21No sweat
02:23Oh, no, you don't
02:30Oh, no, you don't
02:44I'm in trouble
02:45Give me support
02:46Solve your own problems
02:51No problems.
02:52Raise that back.
03:05Wait here.
03:06I'll go check on this.
03:11Careful, Commander.
03:21What are your plans for him, Commander?
03:36Well, Black Hills' maximum security prison isn't far from here.
03:40They'll hold him till McFarlane and the U.N. decide what to do.
03:43I know what to do.
03:46Lock him up and throw away the key.
03:48Easy, Tay.
03:49There's such a thing as due process of law, you know.
03:53Yeah, but due process didn't help my little Joseph when he was trapped in the zone.
04:10You should be all right at home here, Razorback.
04:16Let's go.
04:17In case you're wondering, mister.
04:20We've handled tough guys like you before.
04:33Crack?
04:34Ow, Crack?
04:35Is that you, Crack?
04:36Is that you, Crack?
04:37Long time no see, Skunk.
04:40Hey, it's my main man, Owl Crack.
04:44We used to run together in Jersey.
04:46Only now, he's one of Overlord's Black Widow.
04:53Overlord?
04:54They've captured Razorback.
04:57Excellent.
04:59My plan is working.
05:02That used to be the most undisciplined bunch of cutthroats on the face of the planet.
05:07I don't like it.
05:09Razorback's got them eating out of his hand.
05:11He's up to something, General.
05:13And he's not smart enough to do it on his own.
05:15Overlord must be behind it.
05:17Well, then let's simply pull Razorback out of there and put him somewhere else.
05:22I can't risk it without support troops, and I can't get any there till tomorrow.
05:27We've got to know what he's up to.
05:29Well, then someone has to go in undercover.
05:32I will go, Commander.
05:34Thanks, Kat, but our prisons aren't co-ed yet.
05:37Really?
05:38How far back?
05:39No, we need somebody with an American background.
05:42Let me guess.
05:43Mama Jones' little boy just volunteered one more time.
05:59Well, it's absolutely sad.
06:01Absolutely smashing.
06:03It's so real the hair even grows.
06:06Just call me Franklin Snake Dubois.
06:10Excellent, Max.
06:11Even the voice.
06:12That's due to the vocal modulator in the base of the mask.
06:17And now for the finishing touch.
06:19A micro spy camera and microphone disguised as a contact lens.
06:24He will see and hear everything you do in prison.
06:31But how are you going to make friends with Razorback, Max?
06:36He would not trust his own mother.
06:38No problem, little buddy.
06:41I'll just show him how valuable I am to him.
06:45I saw gun running, armed robbery.
06:50You've been a bad boy, Dubois.
06:54You'll do just fine in here.
06:57He's too bad to be true.
07:01How come I ain't never heard of him?
07:03Who you jiving, Skunk?
07:05You knew me in Leavenworth.
07:07You remember Leavenworth where you turned stoolie?
07:10Stoolie?
07:11Who you calling Stoolie?
07:13Who you calling Stoolie?
07:23Skunk and I go back a ways, Dubois.
07:26Just made a real bad mistake.
07:28There's no mistake.
07:30If he's pulling the same scam as in Leavenworth,
07:32the proof's in his shell.
07:34I sure hope the warden came through with that transmitter.
07:43Mm-hmm, just like in Leavenworth.
07:48Another comm link.
07:49Who you reporting to this time?
07:51The warden?
07:52The cops?
07:53The zone riders?
07:54Hey, but I didn't...
07:56Ow!
07:58You know what, Skunk?
08:00I take care of stoolies personally.
08:03Hey, be cool, man.
08:05You don't want to wind up in solitary.
08:07Maybe I got a place for you and my organization,
08:12after all.
08:13Me and myself are meeting tonight.
08:20This ain't over, sucker.
08:21I'll see you later.
08:26According to my agents,
08:28the reinforcement troops will board there,
08:31then ride past this mountain to the Black Hills prison.
08:36If we go up the side of Mount Rushmore,
08:39we'll wipe out the troops.
08:43Bandit, I need a full zoner battalion on standby alert.
08:47It is already done, Overlord.
08:50It seems I can always depend on you, Bandit.
08:55And I expect no less than a perfect performance from the rest of you.
09:00I hope that is clear.
09:08Infantry commander, assemble your troops at the rendezvous point.
09:19Better inform MCC, pronto.
09:21My guess is that they're going after the troop train.
09:24But we can't get a warning through to it.
09:26Communications are jammed.
09:27I'm afraid we're not having any luck either, General.
09:30It must be Overlord's doing.
09:32Well, we'd better get to that train fast.
09:34Hit it!
09:37You'll keep an eye on Max?
09:39Absolutely, Commander.
09:53Just remember, pack the charges in good and tight.
09:59You don't have to tell me what to do, Bandit.
10:01Alright, let's go.
10:09Bandit.
10:19Reaper.
10:20Overlord.
10:21We seem to have uninvited guests.
10:28The Zone Riders.
10:32On the mountain.
10:39Battle is the ultimate excitement!
10:56This is going to be better than I'd hoped for.
11:09Stay tuned. The Zone Riders will be back.
11:18And now we return with more Spiral Zone action.
11:39I will handle this.
11:40Stop the train!
12:09By the Ridge Sucks, we're pretty soon.
12:10Can'tろう this way!
12:13Be well!
12:14değer of the Tucker, they might want to help men and stay there!
12:20Start up, что- Discovery?
12:24Do not close together.
12:26.
12:29Hmm.
12:30We'll finish this episode later
12:43with Razorback's help.
12:54Nice shooting tank.
12:58Right, General.
12:59Everyone's okay but the rail line's totally blocked.
13:02The troops are going to have to hike in.
13:04And Max?
13:05Okay so far, General.
13:07But things could get nasty now that those troops are delayed.
13:23That's him.
13:24Don't bother making it look like an accident.
13:27We ain't gonna be here much longer.
13:29Skunk says bye-bye.
13:32Yeah, well I ain't gone yet.
13:44Hurry up.
13:45Get him over here before the guard comes back.
13:47I don't know about you, dude, but they're getting kind of monotonous.
13:56Hey!
14:00Look out!
14:01She's lost the contact lens camera.
14:05From now on, we won't be able to tell what's happening to Max.
14:07She's lost the contact lens camera.
14:18From now on, we won't be able to tell what's happening to Max.
14:30Oh, swell.
14:31Listen, you guys.
14:32Help Overlord wipe out the Zone Riders and you'll all be black widows like me.
14:36Let's call.
14:37Let's go.
14:37Oh, excuse me, sir.
14:38Did you wish room service tonight?
14:40Listen, I gotta get a message to General McFarlane and the Zone Riders.
14:42You're right.
14:43Man, you got to listen.
14:44I'm not really a con.
14:45I'm Max Jones, one of the Zone Riders.
14:46See?
14:47Uh.
14:48I'll be right back.
14:49Uh.
14:50I'll be right back.
14:51Uh.
14:52I'll be right back.
14:53Uh.
14:54I'll be right back.
14:55Uh.
14:56I'll be right back.
14:57Uh.
14:58Uh.
14:59Uh.
15:00Uh.
15:01Uh.
15:02Uh.
15:03Uh.
15:04Uh.
15:05Uh.
15:06Uh.
15:07Uh.
15:08Uh.
15:09Uh.
15:10Uh.
15:11Uh.
15:12Uh.
15:13I'll be right back.
15:14Uh.
15:15Uh.
15:16Uh.
15:17Uh.
15:18Well, W NATS.
15:19What have we here?
15:20Uh.
15:21You wouldn't make much of a black widow anyway.
15:24You were just setting these cons up.
15:26They don't know that they're gonna wind up as overlord slaves like all zoners are.
15:32You fool.
15:35You suppose they believe a Zone Rider spy?
15:38You're the icing on the cake, Jones.
15:42You're my insurance policy.
15:45You're gonna get the ride of your life.
15:48Take him!
15:52The prison break should be starting any moment now.
15:56When the Zone Riders try to stop the convicts from entering the Zone,
16:01we'll crush Courage and his group from behind.
16:05You have your orders.
16:07Do not fail me.
16:37Oh!
16:42Follow me, men, to freedom!
16:53Looks like Razorback's making his move.
16:55Enjoy the ride!
17:04Yeah!
17:05Yes!
17:06Yes!
17:07Yes!
17:08No, no!
17:09No, no, no!
17:22Have to stop this nonsense, yes!
17:24Oh, nine.
17:33Commander, fix this.
17:35Yeah, I see him, Tank.
17:36Okay, everybody, get to the zone boundary.
17:38We'll try and turn him there.
17:42Everything is working perfectly.
17:46Stand by.
17:54Uh-oh, a squeeze play.
18:03Okay, everybody, into the zone.
18:05Hit it.
18:10Uh-oh, action.
18:12Don't follow that.
18:15Overlord, come in.
18:17Overlord.
18:18It is no use, Reaper.
18:19His comm link is destroyed.
18:24Hey, what's happening?
18:38I keep, I keep.
18:39Oh, my God.
18:56Oh, my God.
19:05Ah!
19:21Gotta fight Zoll-if-ex.
19:26Ah, how do you get yourself into these situations?
19:35I'm going to ram him. Jump!
19:52Is he okay?
19:53Yeah. Lucky for him, he landed on his head.
19:56All right, keep him busy. I'm gonna rain on this parade.
20:05Now it's your turn.
20:35Quickly, climb aboard! We can still get away!
20:38There will be another time, Courage.
20:46End it!
20:47Thanks for taking such a risk, Max. So how are you feeling?
21:02Well, not too bad for someone who's been beaten, tied to a bumper and run through the zone.
21:09Glad to have you back, Lieutenant.
21:11Me too. Thanks for not blowing up that vehicle I was on, Tank.
21:16Had me worried there for a minute.
21:18I simply did not want to ruin a perfectly good armored car, that's all.
21:23We'll be right back with more Spiral Zone action.
21:37And now we return with more Spiral Zone adventure.
21:41Earth's most powerful soldiers fight the Spiral Zone.
21:54Our world calls for courage, peace, and freedom. We must own.
22:04We will fight on our honor. What is right, we'll defend. Fight the Zone.
22:13Zone riders, Earth's most powerful soldiers.
22:17Our Earth's last chance against the Spiral Zone.
22:26Spiral Zone.
22:28The Spiral Zone.
22:39The Spiral Zone.
22:43The Spiral Zone.
22:48The Spiral Zone.
