“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.

“Any time we’re at a ninja school, my ears perk right up!” - Steve

On this week’s episode, we’re high-kicking off White Guy Karate Month with an episode on the totally fun ninja thriller, The Hunted, starring Christopher Lambert!

How wild is that hot tub scene? Should the contestants on Forged In Fire be drunk while they try and make their katanas? Would anyone wear the boxer shorts Lambert is sporting in this film? How bad ass is Sensei Takeda? And is that bullet train sequence one of the best action scenes of all time? PLUS: Is there any chance we’re seeing any ninja-related injuries on this season of The Pitt?

The Hunted stars Christopher Lambert, John Lone, Joan Chen, Yoshio Harada, Yôko Shimada, Mari Natsuki, Tak Kubota, Toshishiro Obata, Seth Sakai, James Saito, and Masumi “Detective Cheeseburger” Okada; directed by J.F. Lawton.

“He is opening up this world to way more possibilities...” - Andrew on Danny Boyle

On the second installment of our contemporary horror film chat show, Scaredy Cats, we’re talking about last year’s legacy sequel that brought a beloved franchise back from the dead, 28 Years Later!

How incredible of a return is this for Mr. Danny Boyle?! Has Aaron Taylor-Johnson been better in a movie? Did this movie have the best trailer of the last quarter century? When was the last time a horror film had such a fantastically successful dramatic arc? Could anyone but Ralph Fiennes have pulled off Dr. Kelson? And how old is too old to be buying Power Ranger toys? PLUS: Just a note, we taped this show before The Bone Temple came out, so keep that in mind as we spend this episode wondering what might come of that movie!

And remember, look for the poll for the next Scaredy Cats selection in the coming days so you can vote on the next film we cover on the show!

28 Years Later stars Alfie Williams, Aaron Taylor-Johnson, Jodie Comer, Chi Lewis-Parry, Jack O’Connell, and Ralph Fiennes as Dr. Kelson; directed by Danny Boyle.

Scaredy Cats is a quarterly (four times per year) video show where we break down a horror flick from the modern age (only films 10 years old or newer) that YOU the Patreon supporter helps curate! Be sure to keep your eyes peeled for the poll on Patreon where you can vote to help pick the next film we cover on the show!

We know you have a lot of options for stuff to watch and listen to and we’re so stoked you took some time to work us into the rotation. As always, thanks so much for being the kick-ass, TOP TIER supporter that you are!

“He is such a dirty slut in this movie!” - Eric on Dave Franco’s character

On this week’s episode, our month of episodes featuring convos about movies we watched in 2025 concludes with a total banger chat about the romantic drama, Regretting You! Are these the horniest bereaved characters in a major studio production? If your hometown has a local rodeo, does the town charter stipulate you have to get married immediately out of high school? Does Dave Franco really look “mysterious” wearing glasses or is this character just a serial killer? Does Scott Eastwood play a believable party animal? How much money did AMC Theatres have invested in this thing? And we all need to do better by Clancy Brown! PLUS: The Great Pop-Tart Rant of 2026!

Regretting You stars Allison Williams, Mckenna Grace, Dave Franco, Mason Thames, Willa Fitzgerald, Scott Eastwood, Sam Morelos, Ethan Costanilla, and Clancy Brown as Gramps; directed by Josh Boone.

“It’s all melted together into one chocolate bar of horrible…” - Chris on the Jurassic World sequels

On this week’s episode, the gang’s heading down to the equator to take a dangerous boat ride with Scarlett Johansson and Mahershala Ali in the latest dino-centric sequel, Jurassic World: Rebirth! Is this the most half-baked movie of last year? Why couldn’t ScarJo be a grown up version of Clone Girl from Fallen Kingdom? Why are we so obsessed with referencing the first movie? Why is the story engine just a lame video game plot? Did they have any idea what to do with this mutated dinosaur idea? And were they kidding with that Snickers product placement? PLUS: The Skeleton League touches down on the island to collect Dino-skeletons.

Jurassic World: Rebirth stars Scarlett Johansson, Mahershala Ali, Jonathan Bailey, Manuel Garcia-Rulfo, Luna Blaise, David Iacono, Audrina Miranda, Philippine Velge, Bechir Sylvain, Ed Skrein, and Rupert Friend as Martin Krebs; directed by Gareth Edwards.
