    When my mom used to yell at me for watching IWA-Mid South or CZW “king of the deathmatch” videos on the family computer, what she didn’t know was that they were actually honoring the ancient traditions of Muy Thai, apparently. 

    The thing about these 80s action movies is that there’s this real earnestness to them that doesn’t exist in modern movies. Like when Taylor shows up holding the biggest machine gun available (because he’s EX SPECIAL FORCES, obviously), accompanied by…

    2- Frank. A more embarrassing version of Billy’s death. So horny he jumped headfirst out of a…
