Asian Action Cast

Mike and Sam delve into the 1983 wuxia classic. Directed by Tsui Hark and starring Yuen Baio as Ti Ming Qi a soldier that finds himself embroiled in supernatural circumstances after fleeing a battle.

Due to an issue we couldn't work out with our gear we couldn't put up the movie we had planned (we are legends).

So the time has come, we are breaking the glass on Kung Fu Zombie, a supernatural action adventure starring Billy Chong from 1982. Its filled with, Vampires, spirit possession and slapstick, way too much slapstick.

We are buying new gear next week. So hopefully everything will be back to normal soon.

Legendary Takeshi Miike brings us the live action adaptation of the legendary, cult manga Jojo's Bizarre Adventure.

Koichi (Ryunosuke Kamiki) is the new kid in the town of Morioh. After a bizarre (naturally) encounter with some bullies, he befriends the stylish, aloof Josuke (Kento Yamazaki). Together they discover their "stands", friendship and the motivations of their enemies.

More of a drama/thriller than all out crazy action, does Jojo's cut the mustard?

Our apologies for the occasional effects of Sams otherwise golden tongue, we've almost worked out the bugs!

We put on our nostalgia glasses and take a look at 1985 action/comedy My Lucky Stars (starring JACKIE CHAN).

Muscles (JACKIE CHAN) is a Hong Kong cop who enlists the help of his childhood friends (Sammo Hung, Richard Ng, Stanley Fung, Eric Tsang)to assist him in taking down the Yakuza. Problem is, his friends are all a bit sketchy with their own criminal tendencies.

How does this all star cast (including JACKIE CHAN) hold up nowadays? Is the action still good? Did we mention that Jackie Chan is in this movie?

Mike and Nathan talk about 1978's The Avenging Eagle. A Shaw Brother's film starring Ti Lung and Alexander Fu.

Ti Lung plays Chik Ming-Sing a man supposedly on the run and Alexander Fu plays Cheuk Yi-fan a wanderer. They meet on the outskirts of a desert and form an uneasy alliance to take down the Iron Boat Gang.

An all star cast comes together in Wong Jings 2013 tale of one village vs The World.

The quirky residents of the "Lucky Star" village live in peace, bandits don't dare attack, they're just too weird. But when Warlord Lin (Sammo Hung) and his daughter (Kimmy Tong) come through and get caught up in a takeover plot from Japanese spies and internal traitors, the village has to show their resolve and fight.

On this edition of the AAC, we take a look at the 1981 film ROARING FIRE (aka Hoero! Tekken).

After his father passes away and reveals the true nature of his upbrining, Texas cowboy Joji (Hiroyuki 'Duke' Sanda) travels to Japan to find out more about his background. Along the way he gets caught up in a jewel heist.

With monkeys, secret nazis, s&m villains, wrestlers, ninjas, ventriloquism and slight of hand magic (by the legendary Sonny Chiba) you know this is gonna be a good time.

We have re-uploaded this episode in the aftermath of the sad news of Kato Kazuhiko's passing.

The Blood flows and limbs fly when Goemon, Lupin's friend, seeks honour bound vengeance for the death of his Yakuza boss. This episode features Sam, Mike, Nathan and the periodic screams of Mike's children. We apologise for the interruptions.

Vampires! Voodoo! Spirits! Lasers? This edition of the AAC takes a look at the 1980 Sammo Hung vehicle Encounters Of The Spooky Kind.

Directed by and starring Sammo as Courageous Cheung: a well meaning (but tad dopey) husband caught in a mystical battle for the love of his wife. Possession, voodoo, a haunted house and sword fights abound plus a small dose of animal death (!) and an ending so violent and abrupt, you have to laugh/cry out in horror.
