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.

Strap in tight because things are about to get wild! Welcome to Give Me Back My Action Movies 2.0, now with new car smell and Kung Fu grip!!! This week Charlie and Nate decided to open up the floodgates of action-dome and pick the most actiony of action movies from the 80s.... "Commando". The guys go a bit native (okay mostly Charlie) in this episode and gear up as they dive into this quintessential Arnold lead movie. Prepare yourselves because everything's been turned to eleven on this episode, from the fights, gunplay, the one-liners, and most definitely the staggering bodycount!!!
So as Arnold says in the movie.............."LET"S PARTY!!!!!"

Nates Back!!!!! After literal minutes of searching we finally found Nate after he ran off when we opened the door before the House episode, actually the van that stole him brought him back after hours of horror movie talk...lol. This week Charlie lifted the grounding and let Nate choose the movie to cover and his choice was The Puppet Master, an excellent example of late 80s early 90s puppetry and stop motion from Full Moon Productions. But somethings not quite right once the guys start discussing their viewing experiences and well....you'll just have to listen to find out what we mean by that. Welcome back Nate...(we still miss James voice tho....)

It's time for the other winner of our audience poll we ran a few weeks back!!! This week the guys get their moustaches freshly waxed and belly up to the bar as they cover Dan's 90's pick....Tombstone. Listen along as they highlight some of the most iconic acting and casting selections that any movie should have the right to showcase. Find out everyone's favorite lines, characters, and who they would want to be cast as, along with a very peculiar fan remake casting. Even Nate had to admit that Billy Zane was suburb in this weeks selection, and Charlie continually reminded him of that fact as the episode continued. Hear the extraordinarily high Al Leong ratings as well as a Body Count fit for the 80's and stick around for the end as we talk about some changes that are blowing across the plains for the future..............You're a Daisy if you do.

This week Charlie decided that enough was enough with this (in his opinion) current run of questionable movies and dug deep into his nostalgia to bring 'House' to everyone. Unfortunately Nate had to be absent for this redemption episode but have no fear as Charlie was joined in the studio with James (PosterSmash/WitchHouse) and the two had a blast reliving their memories of this cult classic horror movie. Listen along as they gush over the practical effects, the on screen chemistry between William Katt and George Wendt, and find out what is probably the most disturbing image Charlie has burned in his mind. Stay tuned for the Raining Blood and hear how many Machetes the guys give this VHS classic in the newest episode of Give Me Back My Horror Movies!!!

To pick this weeks selection the guys put up three possible movies to review and then let the fans decide the winner. Well we ended up with two winners somehow (go figure lol) Hard Target and Tombstone tied for first place 27/27 and to be honest the guys aren't upset at all. So they decided to cover Hard Target first (reason in the episode) and then the next episode they will be covering Tombstone so everyone wins, everyone except Nate though (sorry Nate, next time). But now you get to take a trip with the guys as they go deep into the heart of Cajun country and get lost in the Bayou discussing Jean Claude Van Damme starring in action director extraordinaire John Woo's first American Film. Check out the Body Count and how many Al Leongs the fellas give this 90s movie goodness with a special appearance by quite possibly the greatest mullet in cinema....and remember, we're professionals....we don't get angry!

It's Pete's pick this week! We're calling this the "Pete's Pick Extravaganza"!!!! The guys decided to make Pete feel more at home and a member of the show by letting him bring a personal favorite to the table to discuss. He brought the Korean Horror Sensation "Thirst" a vampire tale that is definitely not 'Twilight'...definitely not. Listen along as Pete and Nate lose themselves in what Pete describes as an artful representation of a classic love story intertwined into the macabre from acclaimed director Park Chan-wook (Old Boy). Pete and the guys break the movie down into manageable bites (lol) and give it the attention it deserves. So sit back and relax as the guys take you down a dark and bloody story that can only be described as an unusual take on the vampire mythos.
Oh! What did Charlie think of Pete's pick this week... well, you'll have to listen to find out...it doesn't disappoint!!

This week the guys let Dan pick the movie after all the shenanigans lately and Charlie still had to channel his inner Drill Sgt to keep the guys in line. But they couldn't complain too much because the movie Dan picked is a classic starring Clint Eastwood in Heartbreak Ridge. Find out why Dan selected this one and why it holds nostalgic meaning to both him and Charlie...Nate watched the movie and quickly realized he was thinking of Kelly's Hero's when Dan made this selection and was understandably confused when he sat down to watch Heartbreak....damnit Nate! But fear not Charlie kept the guys on point for the most part and after a live fire exercise things leveled out. Find out the Body Count and how many Al Leongs this movie was awarded. OORAH!!!!

We're sorry....we're very sorry.......if you liked this movie.
What the heck did the guys watch this week?!!! Holy crap! This week the guys are joined on the show by Sludge from Monster Movie Stompdown and now Charlie and Nate aren't sure if he'll come back. (Pete laughing in the background) Charlie had the bright idea for them to cover the newest installment of The Texas Chainsaw Massacre franchise because he saw how divisive everyone was being about it, can't be that bad right?....he chose poorly. Listen along as the guys basically tear this movie apart with a chainsaw (not one with 50 year old gas) and how Charlie fixed the ending in 3 minutes give or take. Find out how low the Machete scale can actually go without the help from Dan and how 'Bob' jumped up in the rankings...lol.
We're sorry....for watching this......

Wow!!! The guys never expected to start the action show interviews hot out of the gate but somehow they pulled this one off. Charlie was lucky enough to get in contact with Joshua Milrad 'Tal' not long after the guys covered The Beastmaster movie and to say he was a little star struck isn't too far from the truth. Josh ended up being an absolute blast to interview, it really became a great talk that went far beyond his time on set of The Beastmaster and he took the time to discuss his life before, during, and after his acting career. Again the guys want to thank Josh for taking time out of his busy schedule and coming on the show to share his stories and experiences with us and our listeners.
Spoiler alert....this interview gets 10 Al Leongs!!!!!!!
