Some nights require a solid, mid-tier Jackie Chan film

People’s Hero (1987) Liked this a lot more now than I did as a kid who just wanted a straight forward heroic bloodshed flick. Total powerhouse performance from Ti Lung. Fun watching both little and big Tony look so sad and worried in the same movie. I rewound the final minute 3x.

Time for some brisk, light, unproblematic entertainment

I miss the days when parents would cash in on their famous kids by appearing in pilates videos for the elderly or reviving the ancient art of rumpology

I can already tell my brain has been permanently altered from all the Daijiro Morohoshi manga I’ve been reading lately

Sonny Chiba presents Chiba-chan’s Sports Training! Via google translate, Sonny promises the following: “The frog under the car becomes stronger in the middle.” “Fat people also have sports they are good at.” “Learn the quick trick dried vegetable training”

Soft-focus, Casio-laden VHS anthology that acts as a test run for the next 30+ years of J-horror. Plays all hits in just under 50 minutes, Kiyoshi Kurosawa a confirmed fan.

Sai (2025) Sinister Kiyoshi Kurosawa vibes throughout. A serial killer thriller where the killing occurs offscreen, the investigation unfurls in the margins, and we’re instead left to linger with the victims. Teruyuki Kagawa exudes pure evil in one of the best performances I’ve seen in years.

I can’t believe it’s been 250 years since the Stars and Stripes Challenge, where Lex Luger landed aboard the USS Intrepid and body slammed the 550lbs champion Yokozuna down to the mat

hell yeah

I’ve gone from carrying a VHS tape of this around in my backpack (you know, just in case), to watching it in 4K

I would totally eat it

Another metal hero and JAC homie has fallen, RIP Kurosaki

I suspect many of you are doing this

Decided to finally dive into the Senritsu Kaiki File shorts, only to discover that Namade Kowasugi is a feature-length faux livestream that ties in w/ Shiraishi’s Sadako vs Kayako?! The fact that certain people decided to withhold this information from me is, quite frankly, alarming.

John Woo didn’t nearly incinerate this beautiful man so you could tell me that AI is “inevitable.”

Both this and Species in 1995? What a horny year.

Happy Father’s Day to the best dad any kid could ever ask for

Need more Chuck Jeffreys, time to throw on Superfights

Very sweet of Cynthia Rothrock to convince Richard Norton to appear in her doofus bf’s movie. Dude didn’t deserve her.
