BMFcast279 – Ol’ Swole Neck
The King of the Kickboxers (1990) might have our smarmiest protagonist ever in Loren Avedon’s Jake, but at least he’s taking on Billy Blanks’ Khan, among our evilest antagonists ever. After plenty of bizarre training, can he avenge his brother’s death and put an end to a snuff film ring? The bigger question is just how many Jox will we give this movie?
After the break we catch up on some listener e-mails after Chuck gives his take on Will Ferrell and Kristen Wiig’s weird Lifetime movie experiment, A Deadly Adoption. Enjoy!
