“Scott Adkins’ character has a short temper these days, what with the dead wife…” - Steve

On this week’s episode, “White Guy Karate” Month continues as we welcome in friend of the show, Brandon Streussnig to chat about the wild Scott Adkins martial arts sequel, Ninja: Shadow of Tear!

How awesome is all the kick-ass fight choreography in this? Should we be writing ninja characters named Casey? Do all movie villains know how to play chess? Why in the world were those guys sparring on a hardwood floor? Is this one of the best Adkins films to date? And who wants to smoke some drugs out of a lightbulb? PLUS: Come train with the WHM guys at the Massive Heart Attack dojo!

Ninja: Shadow of a Tear stars Scott Adkins, Kane Kosugi, Mika Hijii, Vithaya Pansringarm, Mukesh S. Bhatt, Charlie Ruedpokanon, Kazi Patrick Tang, and Shun Sugata as Goro; directed by Isaac Florentine.

“It’s a rare fighting style… Party Down Boxing” - Chris, on Jackson’s fight moves

On this month’s We ❤️ Movies episode, White Guy Karate Month spills over into WLM as we chat about one of JCVD’s best, Bloodsport!

How incredible are those splits, folks? Was Frank Dux, the guy whose life this movie was supposedly based on, completely full of shit? How did Jackson get that beer into the hospital? Is Bolo Yeung the only competitor allowed to kill people in the tournament because he was the returning champion? And that brick trick: cool or dumb? PLUS: Are the founding fathers’ lives in the public domain so we can make a Mortal Kombat-esque game about them?

Bloodsport stars Jean-Claude Van Damme, Bolo Yeung, Leah Ayres, Norman Burton, Forest Whitaker, Roy Chiao, and Donald Gibb as Ray Jackson; directed by Newt Arnold.
