The Raid 2 (2014) 
Rama (Iko Uwais) returns to kick serious ass with Gareth Evans' action thriller The Raid 2. The action and thrills are breathtaking with neck breaking speed and agility. It is astounding to watch. Brian Salisbury, from Oneofus.net and Film School Rejects, joins the grue-crew to discuss the pacing, the plot and the characters in depth and detail. Everyone loves Hammer Girl and try to figure out if the film has more in common with Kill Bill or Bruce Lee's Game of Death.

 

Horror News of the Week for 04/21/2014

Dave has the hots for the new Santanico Pandemonium from El Rey's hit television show From Dusk Til Dawn. The next genre entry from Bluhouse, Jessabelle, get its poster, stills and trailer. Dave is impressed by the trailer for the final season of HBO's True Blood. And, he is equally impressed with the the line of Jason Voorhees Horror Buddies from Horror Decor.

 

What Have You Been Watching: Game of Thrones 
Red Weddings, Purple Weddings and Ned Stark top the discussion about Game of Thrones asThomas and Doc ramble and recap the first three seasons. Meanwhile, Santos, a bit lost, wonders when Billy Idol is going to appear singing White Wedding. Sigh. Dragons, betrayals, death, White Walkers and nudity all make their way into the extended GoT rap. Wow!
