Oh, man, I thought the new Gary Daniels episode was great. I laughed out loud several times. It really helps when you've got a really cheesy piece of shit (but a presumably very entertaining one) to work with.
It's weird. I remember watching it for the first time and thinking it was pretty shitty, but when I was watching it again for this one I started thinking it was actually sort of brilliant in its own cheesy way. It's goofy as hell, but there is actually tons of action to keep you entertained and the script is kinda lousy, but fairly well put together. I'll bet if they had a bigger budget it would have rivaled
Indiana Jones in awesomeness... but for all the wrong reasons.

I know I've recommended this in the Movie Knight thread, but how about a review of When Eagles Strike? It's obscure-as-Hell, set in the Philippines (even though the DVD cover shows a desert), has lots of action and idiotic lines, and is direct-to-DVD.
Yeah, I'll have to track that one down. But since you've requested it, it will be done when I get my hands on a copy.

I was going to do one back before my last computer crapped out on me. I still could, especially now that I've finally uploaded all the footage onto my PC. Glad you liked this one. I always think my sense of humor and delivery is actually very dry, so it's good to see people laughing.

The term "adventure boat" is my new favourite vehicle description.
When I was writing my notes, it occurred to me that there was no other way I could describe their sad little vessel. It looks like something out of Mark Twain's forgotten Philipino youth, but they've somehow stacked like a dozen people on it. So when I wrote it, I capitalized it as Adventure Boat, and quietly chuckled to myself. Happy you liked it as well.

As for requests for the future I could enjoy some Bloodfight.
Oh, definitely. If I keep this series up (will probably make a whole new page for it), I'll very likely end up doing the whole series.
