Time to get Abusive on this episode, as I'm joined by the guys from Comeuppance Reviews for a discussion on the films of Gary Busey. We do our top fives, get in depth on Point Break--including my experiment with beer on my cereal--also discuss how a movie that uses a term like "butthorn" needs to fulfill the promise implicit in doing that, get into my adventures in the "Dog Who Saved Halloween" films, and flesh out what a "Predator vs the Ewoks" movie would look like. You can find the guys at Comeuppance at comeuppancereviews.net, and their podcast of the same name on all the major podcatchers. Don't forget to tune into their pod for our episode on Michael Pare later this month, as that episode is a companion to this one.

Note: I was using a new headset for this episode, and there are parts where it picked up my overhead fan, which distorted the audio. I tried to remove it where I could, and it's something I'll rectify in the future, but hopefully it isn't too obtrusive this go-round.

I'm flying solo this week, as I dig into four films I watched for a small Adkins Fest a couple weeks ago. I start with the Dolph-directed Castle Falls, then move onto a James Nunn double feature of Eliminators and One Shot, then wrap up with Hard Target 2. And since I have no guest to plug, I'll plug my two novels, Chad in Accounting and A Girl and a Gun. Grab one or both on Amazon, either in paperback or Kindle.
