    This one’s all gas, no brakes. We’re talking bone-crunching fights, brutal choreography, and the absolute chaos of fighting your way floor-by-floor through a building full of killers.

  • Ep 61 - Rocky
    Swole Cinema Episode 60 goes the distance as Ryan, Mark, and their buddy Nash (from Paranormal Punchers) step into the ring with the 1976 classic Rocky!

    Starring Sylvester Stallone in his breakout role, this Oscar-winning underdog story isn’t just about boxing—it’s about heart, grit, and going toe-to-toe with life itself.

    From training montages to raw emotion, the guys break down why Rocky remains one of the most inspiring (and swole-worthy) films ever made. Yo, Adrian… you don’t wanna miss this one!

  • Ep 60 - Escape from LA
    Swole Cinema Episode 60 surfs in hot as Ryan, Mark, and their buddy Nash (from Paranormal Punchers) dive into Escape from L.A. (1996)!

    Kurt Russell is back as the one-eyed legend Snake Plissken, this time navigating post-apocalyptic Los Angeles—complete with plastic surgery cults, basketball death matches, and yes… that surfing scene.

    It’s bigger, louder, and way weirder than the original, and the guys are breaking down all the glorious chaos that makes Escape from L.A. a cult classic in its own right.

  • Ep 59 - Predator 2
    Swole Cinema Episode 59 is on the hunt as Ryan and Mark break down Predator 2 (1990)! 

    This time, the Predator trades the jungle for the mean streets of Los Angeles—and it’s up to Danny Glover to take on the ultimate alien hunter. With over-the-top action, wild sci-fi weapons, and one of the craziest finales of the franchise, this sequel doesn’t hold back.

    From voodoo gangs to rooftop showdowns, we’re talking all things Predator 2 and asking the big question: underrated gem or chaotic mess?

  • Ep 58 - Hard to kill
    Swole Cinema Episode 58 is here, and this time Ryan and Mark are joined by their buddy Nash (from Paranormal Punchers) to break down HARD TO KILL (1990)!

    Steven Seagal is out for justice—uh, wait, wrong movie—but he is out of a coma and ready to deliver some bone-snapping revenge with his trusty ponytail. From the infamous “coma beard” to classic Seagal one-liners, this one’s packed with everything we love (and love to laugh at) about early 90s action.

    Grab your healing crystals, whisper “I’m gonna take you to the bank…” and hit play.

  • Ep 57 - Hard Target
    Swole Cinema Episode 57 takes aim at HARD TARGET (1993)!

    Ryan and Mark dive into John Woo’s American debut—complete with slow-motion doves, exploding barrels, and Jean-Claude Van Damme rocking the most glorious mullet in action cinema history. Plus, Lance Henriksen and Arnold Vosloo chewing up the screen as unforgettable villains.

    It’s bayou battles, roundhouse kicks, and enough Woo-style gunplay to make you dive in slow motion for no reason at all. 

    Listen now… or become the hunted.
