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.

Roger Corman takes a swing at an Aliens ripoff only this time it's DINOSAURS! However without a team of bad ass Space Marines and Ellen Ripley, the cast drunkenly stumbles through their lines (literally in one case) and fails in spectacular fashion. One fantastic gory scene, a few dummy falls and off-camera grips throwing body parts at on-camera actors makes the film tolerable. Barely. We also drug Josh from The Evil Deaths back out to help cover this birthday pick for Nate's triumphant return!!!

What do you get when you get six people in a room who are both podcasters and good friends to watch a goofy movie from the 80s? Chaos, complete and utter chaos especially when Steven and Leo from Spoils of Horror uninvitedly "hack" into the show. Anna and Hannah from Cinema Slab do their best to reign in the madness but there's just no controlling Steven after a CrossFit and post workout protein shake. We knew before we started that this was going to be a long show so get comfy and enjoy the ride. Unedited and Uncut!!!

In a galaxy way out West there's a town called Oblivion. After an alien gang of bandits murders the sheriff and takes over the town, his pacifist gunslinger son is forced to return to deal with the aftermath. This one had us scratching our heads at times, but even so, it has some charm with familiar faces, funny gags, and a dash of Full Moon Features B-Movie magic! It's an action movie! It's a comedy! It's sci-fi! It's a western! It honestly has no idea what it is. It's 1994’s Oblivion!
Don't just watch Action, B Action!

I...damnit, Pete. We give you a chance to pick a movie and THIS is what you pick? damnit...I can only blame myself. Vampyres is a British, low-budget, sexploitation, lesbian vampire horror movie with a paper-thin-hole-ridden plot. Anna joins us again and I'm so very sorry she had to watch this garbage film. If Pete's birthday month wasn't coming up, he'd be banned from picking movies for a loooong while. Damnit, Pete. What is wrong with you? Go get some help.

A huge THANK YOU goes out to our friends at ScreamBox for sharing a screener of the latest film from the producers of Turbo Kid, We are Zombies. Now, fair warning, this film is NOT Turbo Kid and I can't stress to you more that you can't compare the two, they're just very different movies. That said, the movie is a recommend when it comes out and we are very excited for you to let us know what you think. We don't really spoil anything but if you prefer to see the movie first it's available now.

Anna from Cinema Slab returns and we have an interesting conversation about the little known film, Neon City. It was a cold watch for all three of us and the film left us "whelmed." That said, it's still a soft recommend overall from the group. What left us wanting was made up for the "star" studded cast featuring Michael Ironsides, Lyle Alzado and Vanity along with other actors that you don't get to see very often outside TV. Is it great? Nope. Was it fun? Yes.

It's getting, it's getting, it's getting kinda hectic” as The Perfect Weapon, Jeff Speakman, punches and kicks his way onto the B-Action Podcast! This 1991 film brings Kenpo to the silver screen as Jeff finds himself in the middle of a Korean Gang War that will put his skills and morals to the test. This one put a big smile on all of our faces as Jeff Speakman delivers one liners and ass kickings to anyone in his way! Not to mention a stellar supporting cast of Mako, James Hung, Dante Basco, Cary-Hiroyuki Tagawa and PROFESSOR TORU TANAKA!!! This is one episode that will leave you singing “I've got the power!”

Hannah and Anna from Cinema Slab joined us as we covered Brandon Cronenberg's Possessor and lemme tell you, this young director is a chip off the old block (RIP David Cronenberg). While Pete was struggling to complete whole sentences, the Cinema Slab gals delivered a rocking discussion about this very weird, thought provoking film. Even Charlie liked this movie and he hates the weird stuff. We urge you to watch Possessor before you listen and then join the conversation.

As The Month of Action comes to a close, Micky from The B-Action Movies podcast joined us to cover a seminal film in the genre. Rambo: First Blood part 2 not only paved the way for action movies moving forward but also solidified Sylvester Stallone as an iconic superstar. He was even kind enough to stop by and say a few words about his film. No joke. Just tune in to listen.
