It’s an all-out Action Showdown as Jon Cross is joined by Matt Poirier from the Direct to Video Connoisseur to break down three brand-new brawlers: Diablo starring Scott Adkins, A Working Man with Jason Statham, and Cynthia Rothrock’s passion project Black Creek. From powerhouse punches to passion-fueled projects, we’re diving deep into the latest in modern action mayhem!

We review Black Creek (2024) - A gutsy, beautifully lit, grindhousey, action-packed, and very independent film that’s unique in Cynthia Rothrock’s body of work and, thankfully, her hardworking, passionate fingerprints are all over it. There’s a surprising amount of brutality and blood-letting that gives it a scuzzy little jolt that surprised me. Sure, it’s got some flaws…

Jon Cross and Gary Hill are In the Paré way once again and Into The Sun, a fascinating slice of 90s action that fuses aviation thrills and buddy-cop dynamics, starring Michael Paré and Anthony Michael Hall. For our VHS Vault selection, we dust off No Place to Hide, a Cannon Films drama blending neo-noir tension with oddball casting, featuring Kris Kristofferson, Drew Barrymore, and Martin Landau. Two movies, one great guest, and all the Diner discussion you crave!

Matt Poirier from the Direct to Video Connoisseur joins us and we are back in the world of Wings Hauser! We dip into Cannon Films and talk Norman Mailer’s Tough Guys Don't Dance.

On this Gary Hill and I talk about the Michael Paré fim DragonFight from 1990, and our VHS pick, Seizure which is equally loopy but a lot more 70s is the first movie from Oliver Stone!

The utterly delightful Nic Meek-Whitehead joins us to discuss The Substance - the new Demi Moore and Margaret Qualley body horror/social commentary film from Writer, Director, Editor and Producer, Coralie Fargeat.

Matt Poirier joins me to talk about The Kiss - a criminally under seen, gonzo possession horror from 1988 starring Joanna Pacula and Meredith Salenger and Soldier, the oft maligned, sci-fi flopperooni from Paul W. S. Anderson, starring Kurt Russell

Sleazy Spader comes to an end, potentially forever. So, who did we rope into appearing on the last ever Sleazy Spader episode? Why Andy Lunn of course! We cover the true story, political thriller, The Pentagon Papers featuring an early-ish role for Paul Giamatti but mainly we fixate on Spader’s hair… is it a wig or real and teased?

Moe Von Helvete née Porne joins me to talk about John Cusack and James Spader going head to head in a race to the top and political corruption in "Terrible White People in Connecticut" the Movie AKA True Colors!!

That Sleazy Spader train just a-keeps on rollin’!! I’m joined, again, by Direct to Video Connoisseur’s Matt Poirier, who is a distinct joy as always, to discuss the, quite frankly bizarre existence and substance of the straight-to-video “thriller”, Shadow of Fear. In this episode we very much uncover the Spader related secrets of the universe!!

It's finally here and yes, it is most definitely Summer now - I don't care... I'm not changing it now.

A couple of videos where I pull out some rare, weird, funny or beloved tapes from my collection. I talk about the films, the covers, how I tend to collect tapes and what I think of other collectors who aggressively try and gate keep something that is just meant to be fun, personal and peaceful.
