Give Me Back My Action&Horror Movies
While there are new movies that are fun and enjoyable, they just don‘t have the same impact as the Action and Horror Movies we remember as kids/teenagers. So we figured we were not alone in our nostalgia and created a podcast to entertain people who feel the same as us. We will talk about what made certain movies so memorable. We will talk about a movie so cheesy but still makes us smile. We will share a memory of watching a movie for the first time.
Episodes
Mickey's March Madness kicks off with a doozy! MORTAL KOMBAT!!!... Annihilation. I know, you may be asking yourself “Why do the sequel?”, well, because it's MADNESS, THAT'S WHY! We all know this one took a turn for the worst: No Christopher Lambert. No Lindon Ashby. No Cary-Hiroyuki Tagawa…BUT, we do get an upgrade for Sonya Blade as well as some badass Lin Kuei Cyborg Assassins and a number of other badass characters! Yes the sill...
Friends, we've hit a nostalgia ceiling that I'm not sure we can ever eclipse. Equal? Probably, but never exceed. I honestly don't remember a time in my life when Batman wasn't around. The earliest memories of my grandfather are playing Batman with him on a rusty swing set. Mickey and Charlie share similar stories as we cover Batman 1989. Well...I say cover...we talk more about Batman memories than we do the film. Please join the th...
You may be cool, but are you Chad McQueen cool?! Actually, you probably are after watching 1991's Martial Law. Derek from Bad Movies, Worse People joins us to talk Karate cops looking to take down a gang of high end car thieves led by David Carradine! There's a BRIEF cameo from Professor TORU TANAKA!!!!...and a lovely helping of the always wonderful Cynthia Rothrock! That sounds like a lot of badass, right?! Yeah…anyway, gotta go, ...
Month of Pete wraps up with two of our perverts: our very own Scream Queen, Anna, and best buddy, Erin, from Manic Movie Monday. This week is certainly a Pete Pick as we cover the Hammer exploitation classic The Vampire Lovers from 1970. Pete's love of Hammer horror movies has been clearly documented. From the acting to the set pieces and the absurdly silly red coloring of blood, it's no surprise that if you throw some boobs into t...
Motorcycles, Monsters, and Masked Riders oh my!!! We had the honor of hosting the Master of Mayhem himself and Overlord Steelhorn’s FAVORITE Give Me Back Co-Host, Pete, in honor of “The Month of Pete”! 2023’s Shin Kamen Rider brings the classic character to a new audience with brutal force and over the top action! The costumes and creature effects take center stage with exciting action with powerful performances and some badass fig...
February has arrived and with it another MONTH OF PETE, the best month of the year since Pete gets to pick all the movies. As tradition, Pete has employed some backups to stave off the ire of Charlie and we welcome some of our bestest buddies in the whole crazy podcasting world, Steven and Leo of Spoils of Horror. Pete's action pick this year is Five Deadly Venoms (1978), the seminal pop culture phenomenon produced by the Shaw Brot...
The final movie for Charlie's "Make You See Red" birthday month is here. The guys follow Ivan (Arnold Schwarzenegger) on his mission from Mother Russia to the mean streets of Chicago to take down a drug lord. We talk about how Russians aren't all bad and that we all agree that this movie is part of the Blues Brothers multiverse!
Don't just watch Action, B-Action!!!
The horror side of the podcast kicks off with a film that put Jamie Lee Curtis on the map. She owes her entire career to this one single epic movie that is beloved by all. Halloween? pfft boring. Trading Places? SNORE. No way. I'm talking about the Oscar winning treasure from 1999: Virus. Wait, what? You've never heard of this movie? Well, you're in for a treat especially if your favorite kind of treat is a chocolate covered banana...
We're not out of our minds, just out of bullets! Charlie's birthday month is coated in red and we're kicking it off with the most famous movie “Russian” of all time, DOLPH LUNGREN in 1988’s Red Scorpion! As Russian and Cuban forces slaughter innocent Africans, Lt. Nikolai Rachenko begins to realize he may just be one of the bad guys. After a “rocky” breakup with his countrymen, Nikolai goes on a journey to “punish” the oppressors w...
Happy 2026 and welcome to a new look for the Give Me Back Podcast. Mickey from the B-Action podcast joins us for Charlie's first action pick of his birthday month and arguably the best Die Hard rip-off of all time, Sudden Death. If you think physics is stupid and logic is overrated, then this is your kind of film. While the film is insulting to anyone who's graduated from middle school, it is unquestionably entertaining and worth a...
New year…same badass B-ACTION! We kick off 2026 with Cpt. Steve from Bucket of Chum as we cover a quintessential (big word, we know) B-ACTION movie…1983’s Deathstalker! This Sword and Sorcery classic hits all the high notes that make us happy: No holds barred violence, badass babes, a little touch of humor, and enough testosterone to grow your very own Charlie beard! Seriously, He-Man WISHES he was this manly. So join us to watch t...
This week (in the past) we joined co-host Dustin on his show Flicks and Friends Podcast to help cover 2012's Dredd starring Karl Urban!
Tis the season to get in to the holiday spirit or, if you're like Pete, just getting in to any spirit is good enough. Charlie, Anna and Pete welcome in B-Action's very own Silver Fox Micky for a unique Give Me Back my Holidays sort of show. Instead of covering yet another Christmas movie, the gang thought it would be fun to take a trip down memory lane and share with you what this time of year was like and what it meant to us. We s...
“What do you say to Santa’s Dwarves?...Thank you!” It's a Christmas tale as old as time. A newly released prisoner hooks up with his dead cellmate's hot stalker girlfriend only to get involved in an elaborate casino heist. Warms the heart, doesn't it?! Reindeer Games (2000) lays out a feast of familiar faces and Santa on Santa violence! Come and warm yourself by the fire as we roast this movie's pacing and wild plot. We'll carve th...
The B-Action boys join Video Villa Entertainment podcast to cover the action classic...Tango and Cash. Starring Sylvester Stallone and Kurt Russell.
Don't just watch Action, B-Action!!!!
Do you want a motorcycle sandwich?! Then you better not miss a second of this episode featuring the 2001 classic The One! Jet Li puts on a fight choreography clinic and you get a young Jason Statham with 70% MORE HAIR! This movie is stacked with cool cars, big guns, a heavy dose of Drowning Pool, and awesome ass whoopin’s. But we're more than that. We're deep thinkers, so we couldn't help but take the time to dive into multiversal ...
Charlie and Mickey joined co-host Dustin on his show Flicks and Friends for their Video Game month to cover the 90s classic.... Double Dragon!!!
B-ACTION gets down to the fundamentals with a CLASSIC flick about heart, teamwork, and overcoming the odds! Derek from Bad Movies, Worse People joins us for 1989’s Best of the Best starring Eric Roberts and James Earl Jones. This is a quintessential stop on every B-ACTION movie fan's journey. Bar fights and martial arts tournaments are just the icing on top of a fun movie full of montages, the importance of brotherhood, and… *sniff...
Guest Spot Episode:
In this episode, we’re diving into Solo (1996) — the high-octane, cyber-soldier action flick starring Mario Van Peebles as a government-made killing machine who grows a conscience and goes rogue. It’s got jungle warfare, robot ethics, 90s cheese, and some wild explosions.
We’re not going solo on this one either — we’re joined by the @B-Action Podcast crew to help us close out the Month of Action in style.

Saskia Inwood woke up one morning, knowing her life would never be the same. The night before, she learned the unimaginable – that the husband she knew in the light of day was a different person after dark. This season unpacks Saskia’s discovery of her husband’s secret life and her fight to bring him to justice. Along the way, we expose a crime that is just coming to light. This is also a story about the myth of the “perfect victim:” who gets believed, who gets doubted, and why. We follow Saskia as she works to reclaim her body, her voice, and her life.
