40: Street Fighter (1994)


Listen Later

For our second video game movie of the month we take a trip down Shadaloo way to check in on Guile, M. Bison, and the whole World Warrior gang as they shoot, explode, and rarely street fight their way through the incredibly ill-advised adaptation of Street Fighter.
