NEW AND IMPROVED VERSION!
This is the episode you want to listen to, not the earlier one...
In a sort of companion piece to last week's Van Damme ranked episode, we follow pretty much the same formula, except this time we're talking about a certain Mr. Seagal. Matt, the Direct To Video Connoisseur, is our special guest as we power through Steve's high highs and low lows. So kick back, grab a snack, and enjoy the ride. To paraphrase David Letterman when he commented on one of Seagal's blues albums, will your ears be "Under Siege"? Only one way to find out...have a listen today!

Saving the Best For Last

Sunday Jan 26, 2020
We were going to call this episode "The Last Podcast", but we didn't want to scare anybody. We plan to be around for a long time to come, but that's not necessarily the case when it comes to the movies we're talking about today. It's another grouping based on a word in the title, but rather than "Blood", "Kill", or "Dead", we decided to go a bit more subtle today, and talk about the "Last" movies. Will they get on our "last" nerve? Find out by pressing play...

If you want blood, you got it...on episode eight, where Ty and Brett have a friendly chat about, well, blood. More specifically, they delve into the annals of comeuppancereviews.net and they look at the prevailing trend of blood-entitled, if not blood-soaked, action cinema. Why were there so many "Blood" movies? We try to extract the answer...feel free to sample a listen!

They Could've Been Contenders

Special guest Ryan joins us as we speculate as to what might have been... During the boom of action movies and video stores that exploded (literally) throughout the 80's and early 90's, many people got a chance to be an action hero. Everyone from Van Damme to Jay Roberts Jr. to Matt Hannon and many, many more got their moment in the sun. But what about those that didn't? With new mom and pop video stores cropping up every day and looking to fill shelf space, you'd think the people on the lists we came up with would get that chance. Who are they? Tune in to find out...

Monday Dec 16, 2019
For Episode Six, we run wild in the streets! That's only because there may or may not be a wildfire there somewhere. While we search for it, we examine why there were so many movies that dealt with the streets during the DTV era...or at least had the word "Street" in the title. We believe we came up with an actual answer, but you'll just have to press Play to find out what it is...

Sunday Dec 01, 2019
For episode five, we trespass on private property...but we've got a good reason! It's so we can explore the phenomenon of what we call the "DieHardInA" movie that proliferated during the classic DTV era and beyond. All manner of vehicles and structures alike were commandeered by dastardly baddies, and a lone hero must save the day. After all, ya gotta Die Hard somewhere. Is any place safe?
