Our third Halloween show takes a look at the urban myth of Halloween Sadism and tackles the Stranger Danger gimmick. Halloween is the deadliest night and has the deadliest hour for child killings. It is also a night that sees raised levels of violence.  However, in order to properly tackle these problems as self-protection teachers and students we need to look at the facts behind this after we crush the spectre of the Candyman.

This year's editions of Martial Movie Massacre continue with even more content as we put to bed the myth that martial arts movies are largely responsible for martial art movie tropes and cliches. From "The Avengers" to "Bad Day at Black Rock" via the Eon James Bond franchise, the original Star Trek series and The Saint we look at the judo chop, the generic throw and the double-axe handle. These tropes and bad fight scene ideas emerged as Asian martial arts failed to get a foothold on the mainstream market until the 1970s, but once they were in place they would be hard to shake. Yet, if we look at an unsuccessful post WW2 movie, we note that things might have been different. 

Meanwhile, special guests, Peter Jones and Leigh Simms, deliver insightful and entertaining contributions on getting knocked out and heroes who break the law. 

Put down the gloves and pick up the pop corn!

Due to popular demand, "Martial Movie Massacre" is back! We have more shows, more guests and far more discussion on martial art movie tropes and cliches. This episode we ask whether martial arts movies - that is movies that have martial arts at the core of their plot and/or marketing - are to blame for many of the cliches and tropes we associate with them. 

Our guests on this show are Kris WIlder of "Back Channel" and "Martial Arts and Life" fame, and Mary Stevens of the Athene School of Karate.

This episode explores possibly the most insidious area of personal security: falling in with the wrong company. Looking at the short and tragic life of the seventh St Valentine's Day Massacre victim as well as the way the oldest tricks in the book work consistently, even against the streetwise, we expose the importance of self-awareness. This is very much a part of the human condition and was something a native of 19th century Tuscany when he wrote the world's most published moral tale for children, Pinocchio. 

Self-Protection has long made the folly of dwelling too much on stranger danger when the risks to personal security are more likely to either come from those we know or our circle of influence.
