What would you do if you were a Canadian detective in LA? That’s where we find JCVD in this latest episode. Jeff and John take on this 1990 classic, “Death Warrant.” Jean-Claude plays Louis Burke and he’s on a mission to capture Sandman. Wait, he kind of already did that. Let’s try that again. Jean-Claude plays Louis Burke and he’s on a mission to find out what’s going on in the prison system….and let’s throw in the Sandman again! That sounds better. Anyway, check out this latest review for the Jean Pod Van Dammecast. And check out the trailer for Death Warrant here:

Picture yourself in 1990. You’re in the French Foreign Legion and you just got word that your brother is burnt up in a hospital. What do you do when your high commander won’t let you go see him? Kick ass and take names, of course! John and Jeff are here to review Lionheart – a story about Lyon Gaultier traveling to Los Angeles to take care of his brother’s widow and child but is met with a serious underground fighting storyline along the way.

Van Damme was busy in the late 80’s, there’s no doubt about it. In this latest episode, we take a look at the 1989 Sci-Fi Thriller, Cyborg. What’s a man to do in a post-apocalyptic world? How do you deal with people named after musical instrument companies? How is the CDC still around even after the world has pretty much ended? Jeff and John are back to discuss this and more in this latest episode of Jean Pod Van Dammecast.

When asked, “Name the first film that comes to your mind from Jean-Claude Van Damme,” there will probably be three likely answers – Bloodsport, Street Fighter, and Kickboxer. Everyone knows the iconic drunk dancing scene. Heck, you’ve probably tried to copy the moves. And who hasn’t tried kicking a banana tree after watching this film? You haven’t? Oh. Anyway, John and Jeff are back to take on this lovely film that kicked off (pun intended) a series of sequels. They might not have Tong Po strength but they can move fast in getting this review done.

What happens when Jean-Claude Van Damme plays another Russian bad guy? He does the splits, of course! In this episode, Jeff and John go over the film, “Black Eagle” and try to figure out what everyone was thinking while making this film. If you love U.S. versus Russia Cold War stories, you’ll definitely wonder why you spent an hour and 33 minutes trying to watch this film.

Enjoy the trailer below:

In 1988, little did we know that we would be blessed with one of the greatest films to ever present itself on the silver screen. If your first thought wasn’t “Bloodsport,” then what are you doing with your life? John and Jeff break down the meaning of this film in their review, looking at the struggles and hardships immigrants must face when coming to America for the first time and how they can provide for their family. And let’s face it: we’ve all been tempted to steal another man’s katana from time to time.

Check the trailer out below:

John and Jeff are back to talk about the first film involving Van Damme as a big time actor!

Why doesn’t his father like fighting? Was the director, Corey Yuen, questioning the casting of this film? And why is the audio so terrible?
