The Outer Reels episodes:

August 28, 2025 Action Smacked: Mr. No Legs
We continue with our season of movies selected by Action Smacked. We had a lot of fun with this exploitation classic, even if it technically gave Jason serious anxiety.

August 21, 2025 Action Smacked: Lady Terminator
We start a new season where Jeff Kirschner from Action Smacked picks the movies for us. This week we start with a doozy: 1988's Lady Terminator, out of Indonesia. Is it more than just a Terminator rip-off?

August 14, 2025 Street Fighter 2-Japan: The Last Dinosaur
Sam (shockingly) enjoyed this more than Jason, but this live-action Japanese co-pro from Rankin Bass does have some charm. Warning: we digress A LOT on this one. #anythingbutcobra

August 07, 2025 Street Fighter 2-Japan: The Green Slime
Sam liked this a lot more than Jason, but it's still a fun watch and has a hell of a title song!

July 31, 2025 Street Fighter 2-India: Mr. India
Jason spends more time talking about comic books thank he does this "superhero" movie out of 80's India.

July 24, 2025 Street Fighter 2-Brazil: The Fifth Power
Jason was almost dead for this episode, so apologies on how bad he sounds, but he did come up with quite the find: We watched a version of this movie that was terrible quality, but it still managed to impress us.

July 17, 2025 Street Fighter 2-USA: Ghost Warrior
If this was Samurai Encino Man, it would have been a far better movie. Listen in while we discuss what wasted opportunity this movie was and still wish there was a sequel to watch.

July 10, 2025 Street Fighter 2-Spain: The People Who Own the Dark
We were initially excited by this odd offering from Spain, but ultimately were let down.

July 03, 2025 Street Fighter 2-Hong Kong(?!?): Mad Mission
Not only does Sam not understand Geography, but he doesn't care about history, either. We continue our Street Fighter 2 map with Sam's Chinese pick, 1982's Mad Mission, which is actually out of Hong Kong. It's really dumb but still a lot of fun.

June 26, 2025 Street Fighter 2-USSR: Stalker
Sam hates this classic movie out of the USSR, but Jason knows it's a work of art. Things kinda spiral out of control from there.
