In this week's episode, Devan, Cyrus and I right some wrongs and watch Yuen Biao's modern classic. We discuss the infamous stunt doubles, Cyrus admits that Cynthia Rothrock could take him in the fight and we posit that maybe this film would be better without Corey Yuen on screen.
Later we discuss all manner of listener questions but we tackle the toughest one we've ever had: "What makes a Christmas film a Christmas film?"
Cyrus also ponders what he'd do if Devan and I approached him about some bedroom shenanigans. Things get wild.

It's our Halloween episode! This week we set the martial arts aside and go full horror mode with the Korean found footage film, Gonjiam: Haunted Asylum.
Devan introduces Cyrus to "Spooky Scary Skeletons" (which he hates), I talk about a recent film that made me cry and change my stance on Parasite and we all ask, "What exactly happened in the asylum?" We also answer the age old question, "Can ping pong balls be scary."
Of course, as always. we answer listener questions too. Enjoy!

Devan didn't want to leave you all without her opinions on The Seventh Curse so she has a few brief things to go over (including where me and Cyrus were wrong). Later, we jump into a short review of Accident Man 2: Hitman's Holiday.
As well as these two discussions, we discuss the racial implications of American History X and 12 Years a Slave and Devan answers some listener questions!
Enjoy!
Quick note: There is some audio crackling early on. I apologize. I have no idea what caused it but it seems to go away.

We are Devan-less this week but Cyrus and I hold the fort down pretty well (I think) as we discuss 1986's insane horror/action hybrid, The Seventh Curse.
We ask. "What happened to Jessica Biel?", talk about curses and firmly state that you should never ask "Why?" when it comes to this movie.
Later on, we ask some pretty taxing listener questions. We bring up Robert De Niro, our questionable opinions and I talk about why I want to be She-Hulk's sidekick.
Enjoy!

It's Shawtember, baby! This week heading back to the land of Chang Cheh and the Venom Mob as we talking 1978's Crippled Avengers.
Listen as we try desperately to sidestep the political incorrectness of Chiang Sheng's character's ailment. We ask "What do those rings on those swords do?" and Devan reveals that she doesn't care for the Venoms' empty handed fight scenes. Pure blasphemy.
Later, we get into listener questions. You get to hear about how I'd slap Kevin Smith and Cyrus tries to mime a sex act on an audio podcast.
