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.

Do you like to watch Yahtzees get killed in a number of creative ways? I know I like watching Yahtzees get killed in a number of creative ways. That said, we kick off the annual MONTH OF ACTION with a modern classic, The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare. For reasons that can't be understood, the film didn't do well in the theaters and we, as action fans, should be ashamed that we didn't get out and see it. Comparisons with Inglorious Bastards isn't fair as "IB" is completely fictional and "Ministry" is based on actual events from WWII. Are BOTH movies worth your time? ABSO-FREAKING-LUTLY and frankly I'm hard pressed to think of a better action double feature. Now look friends, you have to promise me that you will listen to the show ONLY AFTER you go watch the film. You will thank us.

WHY ARE WE YELLING?! BECAUSE WE'RE TALKING ABOUT KILLER ROBOTS WITH SPECIAL GUEST SEAN FROM MOVIE DUMPSTER!!! 1994’s Death Machine stars Brad Dourif as a classic maniacal, immature, perverted villain trying to maintain power and cause a shit load of chaos. He unleashes the ultimate killing machine called the “Warbeast” in a corporate building, killing anything and everything in its way! That includes walls! This movie has some brutal violence (see the elevator scene) and intense moments! Larger than life characters rule the screen, including the debut of Richard Brake and you'll get more movie references than you can shake a rocket launcher at!

Sadly, the Month of Chaos has come to an end but we go out with a bang! The Wheel of Pain fell on Charlie's name and we were graced with the Jackie Chan / Chris Tucker blockbuster Rush Hour. So many mixed feelings led to an amazing conversation. Pete and Charlie both got in trouble with the Give Me Back HR department while Anna was laughing and pointing knowing she was still in good graces.

As we wrap up the horror side of The Month of Chaos, the cast is treated to possibly the silliest Friday the 13th movies in the franchise. I say silliest with all the love and admiration I can muster. Jason Goes to Hell is a delightful left turn from all the typical Jason troupes while still giving us the creative kills and practical gore we all love. Friday fans are torn over this one and I'd like to encourage you to revisit Goes to Hell if it's been a while. Don't take it seriously for heaven's sake. It's a Jason movie. Just have fun.

Only one man could lead us into another year of B-ACTION badassery and only one movie studio could usher us into a new era of wall to wall B-ACTION goodness. Joe Lara takes us into the not so distant future in 1995’s Hologram Man from PM Entertainment! Not to be confused with Demolition Man! Because basically it's the same plot. But that doesn't matter though thanks to constant explosions, badass chase scenes, roid rage, and excellent practical effects! Does it make a whole lot of sense? Hell no. Do bullets blow up cars? Hell yes. Will Charlie need a clean pair of underwear? You'll have to listen to find out!
Don't just watch Action, B-Action!

If you know anything about director Takashi Miike's filmography then you'll be well prepared for the insanity, head scratching confusion and WTFs of Yakuza Apocalypse. This is such a Pete movie that his picture should be in the IMDB entry. If you decide to watch it, free on Tubi by the way, please go into it with the understanding that the film isn't to be understood but rather experienced or maybe even endured....hence Month of Chaos!!!!!!!

Parker from Dissect That Film joins us to cover the sensation that is Terrifier. The film is shockingly polar and there are few fans that hover in the middle of this film. The perfect example of "you love it or you hate it." If you're here to listen to Charlie crap on a movie then this is your episode, however Charlie is very good at making his points clear and succinct without becoming a petulant child pouting in the corner because he watched a movie with a clown. Anna and Parker are fans but also see the numerous flaws in the film. Pete was recovering from a long bender of a weekend and can not be bothered. Despite all the discourse, everyone agreed that the gore and David Howard Thornton's performance as Art the Clown are a chef's kiss and deserve the all the accolades. Now if we could just get a 90 minute cut of Terrifier 2 and 3 we might have a hell of a franchise on our hands.

One year ago a new podcast was forged out of the desire to seek out the lost and explore the unknown. From the waves of Devil's Island to the peak of Death Mountain and everywhere in-between, B-ACTION rides upon their steeds of steel across the desert wastelands of worlds forgotten with the whispers of only one word…BADASS. Join us as we celebrate our trip around the Sun with memorable moments, favorite episodes, and reflecting on our ratings! Then it's an outrageous tournament to the death with some of our favorite characters from the movies we've covered. The only rule is…there are no rules!
Don't just watch Action, B-Action!!!

*From the Desk of Pete*
Expectations were pretty low for a sequel that is hated by the masses but after watching the movie I'd like to ask these masses, "Have you actually watched Robocop 2, or are you just repeating what others are saying?" Robocop 2 was a first time watch for Anna and Pete but was such an unexpected homerun that neither of the hosts can explain the distain for the film. Robocop is a masterpiece of action cinema but 2 is a hoot. Think of it like Gremlins and Gremlins 2, very different films that are both incredibly entertaining. Robocop 2 is a strong recommend, just don't take it too seriously.

Once thought to be "Lost Media," Spider Baby has thankfully been rediscovered and given a proper Blue Ray release by Arrow. The last film of legendary genre actor Lon Chaney Jr. puts out a powerful performance in this ominous, horrifying rendition of an "Old Dark House" film and Sid Haig flexes his acting chops without ever saying a word. Charlie blew Pete and Anna's mind when he suggested that Rob Zombie's House of 1000 Corpses is a spiritual remake and the more they talked about it the more they agreed. This one's in the public domain so it's easy to find and the entire cast suggests you spend the 80 minutes to experience a true cult film.
