In this episode I finish my look at 90s Nicolas Cage action movies with "Face/Off" and "Snake Eyes". In the first part I look at "Face/Off," and how I didn't want to watch it initially, but what I appreciate about it now. Then in the second part, we get stuck in on "Snake Ey...

Ty from Comeuppance Reviews is back for his monthly spot on the pod, this time we're featuring two films, "Armor" and "Aftermath." For our first one, we're looking at a Randall Scandal starring Sly Stallone. How did Stallone get here? And does the film work? Then for our second one, it's our first time looking at a Netflix movie, this one starring Dylan Sprouse. Did it do any better than the Sly Rand...

In this episode I'm joined once again by Will from Exploding Helicopter, as we look at two films with Scott Adkins. First we look at "Take Cover," a sniper slog also starring Alice Eve. What happened with this one? How did it go wrong? And then for the second film, we look at "Accident Man: Hitman's Holiday," where Adkins picks up where the previous entry left off. Beyond the fun time that the movie was,...

Scott Murphy from All 90s Action, All the Time and New Horror Express is back to discuss another Steven Seagal DTV flick, this time "Belly of the Beast." Directed by Hong Kong legend Siu-Tung Ching, there are elements that are worthy of his status in this--and there are elements that are worthy of Seagal's status too, if you know what I mean. It's still got all the bonkers you want from a Seagal DTV film.

In a continuation from episode 207's recording session, Jon Cross from Be Kind Movie Vault and the PM Entertainment Podcast and I had more material beyond the double feature of "Bedroom Eyes" and "Bedroom Eyes II" we discussed then. Among the many things we joked about: minor league hockey, guys at the bar who think they know everything, and a conspiracy theorist looking to get on his podcast. We also talk a...

And then in the second half, we get stuck in on "Born Again...

We're joined once again by Jon Cross from the PM Entertainment Podcast and the After Movie Diner to discuss the erotic thriller double feature "Bedroom Eyes" and "Bedroom Eyes II". We try to make sense of the nonsensical plots, we try to make sense of Kip Gilman, and we try to make sense of Linda Blair's post "Exorcist" career. Oh yeah, and part two has Wings Hauser playing the part Kip Gilman ...

Todd Liebenow from Forgotten Filmcast is back on, this time to discuss "American Ninja," the Michael Dudikoff/Cannon classic. There are all kinds of things to get into with this gem, from the ninja action, to Michael Dudikoff's strong silent type--emphasis on the silent--to the pictures the colonel keeps on his wall, and we get into all of it!

In this episode I'm joined by Jeanette Ward from The Mundane Adventures of a Fangirl, to discuss the Dolph Lundgren classic, "Bridge of Dragons". We look at how it compares to some of his other greats, like "Showdown in Little Tokyo," and then we get into the good, the bad, the kooky, and the "why did they do that?", because the people making this movie, including director Isaac Florentine, made so...

In this episode I'm joined once again by Chris "The Brain" Kacvinsky from Bulletproof Action, and this time we're featuring Jeff Wincott, Cynthia Rothrock, and Evan Lurie in the 90s classic "Martial Law II".

Ty from Comeuppance Reviews is back for his monthly spot on the pod, this time it's another Willis flick in "Fortress: Sniper's Eye", a bit of a slog with Chad Michael Murray sans vest from the first film; and "Last Kumite", a fun film that brings us back to 90s punchfighters.

Scott Murphy from All 90s Action, All the Time and New Horror Express is back to discuss another Steven Seagal DTV flick, this time "Black Dawn." A sequel to "The Foreigner" that wasn't meant to be one, this film, like so many Seagal DTV flicks, has an interesting history. As we discuss the bonkers ups and downs, that strange history plays into a lot of what went wrong--which with Seagal DTV means it's o...
