Part two of the missing http://ggtmc.libsyn.com/ film coverage comes up, as I solo up this recording adventure, much like Mike Ransom does in the Bruno Mattei... er... I mean Vincent Dawn film, "Strike Commando".  Random fits of yelling, snake kicking, crossbow questioning, and village destruction await you.  And since this is a solo podcast episode, the long-missed solo Metal Mikey stammering and yammering makes a comeback.  I bet you couldn't wait to hear the return of the mushmouth!  But should your typing and linguistic skills urge you to leave some feedback, please send all e-mails and MP3 recordings to actionattraction@mail.com.  Most importantly, enjoy!

Studies may have had me sunk for a while, but leave it to Oily Maniac Jay to get the juices going again for a return of Action Attraction!  This episode out, we discuss recent viewings, along with a conversation about Lucio Fulci's "Conquest".  Bone nunchucks, laser arrows, puppet birds, and lucky snakes abound in this film.  We also ask the important questions, like is a woman equally as attractive if she's caked in dried mud while stark naked?  Or would you really smear your friend's ashes on your body to gain supernatural powers?  And even worse, when your friend is on a funeral pyre, should you be disturbed that it reminds you of barbeque?  I apologize for skipping feedback this episode, but time was in a bit more of a crunch this week, and sleep was also not too kind to me.  Next episode, aside from talking about Bruno Mattei's "Strike Commando", I'll also be catching up on feedback.  And speaking of which, leaving it is REAL easy now, since I'm sure my K7 line died, so feel free to send any letters or MP3 recordings to actionattraction@mail.com.  And I can't wait to hear from you crazy peeps, soon!  For this show does not die, or fade away, but goes into school and poop-induced comas every now and then!

A mess of short movie reviews!  A mess of recent events!  A mess of feedback!  And a mess of a host that can't speak proper English, apparently.  This is your hot mess way to start off 2013, as I pretty much catch up on everything during the Christmas Special month of this show.  So, if you got any thoughts to add to the fire for the next official review episode, you can drop them off at either the email address at actionattraction@mail.com, or kick in some voice mail thoughts at 1-206-338-1819.

"Drunk Dial" AKA Son of Odin, found at both http://www.sonofodin.net/ and http://www.sonsofmetalpodcast.com/, and "Screw Head" AKA myself, go on a secret mission to find and assemble the thoughtfully exploded into three whole pieces... in outer space, no less, of the Weather Dominator around the globe.  I keep forgetting where the locations of the pieces are, we talk about potential Baroness webcam sessions to help pay for COBRA bases, we ponder what rank it takes for a Joe to wear whatever the hell non-regulation military uniform they please, and fight Tron snakes.  What better way to pass the time after Christmas than a review of a blatant toy commercial miniseries?  Should you wish to interrupt my feedback lines, in the same way Cobra Commander does any television airwave, then stop sputtering like a wet toaster, and drop me a voice mail at 1-206-338-1819.  Or use your massive computer layout like the Joe team has at the Pit, and write me an e-mail at actionattraction@mail.com.

What other way can I explain this episode than by saying it came from suggestion by the Cinemasochist Justin, found at freakinawesomenetwork.com.  We discuss John Frankenheimer's "Reindeer Games" this episode out, and many interesting tangents come about.  References to pro wrestling, praises of Charlize Theron's beauty and "chesticular fortitude", and the grand return of poop stories!  Holiday fun for the whole family... that is, if your family enjoys people swearing repeatedly about how much Ben Affleck irritates them.  So, should you wish to sing me your interpretations of "Little Drummer Boy", you can feel free to leave me a voice mail at 1-206-338-1819.  Or you could write me some prison dating letters like Theron sent out at actionattraction@mail.com.

Silly, silly Penguin... Of course we think we can win, don't we.  By that, I mean myself as your Batman, and Zach, of http://www.thelightningbugslair.com/, as your Nightwing.  We're here to talk about Tim Burton's "Batman Returns".  We compare character interpretations, do bad Christopher Walken impersonations, and get so in depth about this movie, we may as well be inside Michelle Pfeiffer's cat suit.  ... Or so we wish.  Should you wish to flash your Bat-signals into some feedback, feel free to give me a call at 1-206-338-1819, or an e-mail at actionattraction@mail.com.

Lauren of the Death Rattle Podcast https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/death-rattle/id570595760 and I touch upon the legends of yore... through the eyes of the director that gave us "Starcrash".  Luigi Cozzi's "Hercules" and "Adventures of Hercules 2" are the film discussions of the episode, and the Incredible Hulk... aka Lou Ferrigno... stars in them BOTH!  Find out what dresses to and not to wear of the female characters, what to do when a bear attacks your father, and what celebrities assault Hercules during his second quest.  Plus, recent viewings, happenings, feedback, and all this for nada.  Nothing.  Not a penny.  So should you wish to pay back with some kind... or just goofy... thoughts, feel free to do so by e-mail at actionattraction@mail.com, or by dropping me a voice mail at 1-206-338-1819.

You all smacked down your votes... and deadlocked the comic-based viewer's poll... but a winner has been decided.  What movie is it?  You're just gonna have to listen!  Plus, a metric ton of recent viewings, two poop stories for the free price of one episode, driving rants, and gratuitious mentions of other podcasts in conversation.  Oh yeah, and some little sleep early morning feedback, too!  We're talkin' Ringaling Bros.-level entertainment in this episode.  Should you wish to reach out and touch someone, there's always the bad spot on the doll, or get in touch with the show via e-mail at actionattraction@mail.com, or through voice mail at 1-206-338-1819.

Do you like Wesley Snipes?  Do you like movies that make you think you're watching "Top Gun" by mistake?  Do you like very flat acting?  Well then, you might just be up for my discussion of the 2005 film "The Marksman", an episode in tribute to Doctor Zom, the man that would not shaddup about covering a Wesley Snipes movie on the show.  Plus, recent viewings, food adventures in Canada, and your feedback!  So should you want to get back to the show with your own thoughts and idears... Oliver Stone lingo... you can do so by emailing me at actionattraction@mail.com, or by sending me a voice mail at 1-206-338-1819.

In this storage-space killing episode of Action Attraction, I announce the plans for the December AA guest hosting projects, so feel free to drop your name off for what ones you want to be part of on the Facebook page.  Oh yeah, I also tell another poop story, and talk about how freaky cat gangs at night can be.  Plus, a spirited review of "Deathstalker 2" awaits.  Feathered-hair, crazy eyes, lots... I mean, LOTS... of really awesome breasts, my new crush Gorgo, and PIGFACE!!! are some of the highlights awaiting you.  And would it be an episode if I didn't mention recent viewings, along with feedback?  Speaking of which, should you wish to drop some knowledge on my arse, you can do so via e-mail at actionattraction@mail.com, or by leaving me a voice mail at 1-206-338-1819!

Who's the better buddy cop team? Fiddy Cent and Semi-Fat Val, or Metal Mikey and the Lightning Bug Zach?  Find out in this discussion of "Streets of Blood", a... if you go by the Netflix sleeve, "gritty urban crime drama".  You learn a lot of life lessons on this show, such as what potato chips you want to buy if you want to time travel, what you MUST have as car interior decoration, and what kind of party you should look forward to for the next Horror Hound Weekend.  There's even some talk about the Indy branch of that convention, recent viewings, and the mother of all poop stories.  So, obviously, a family friendly episode.  Should you wish to find Zach's efforts, search out lightningbugslair.com for his blog, and be on the lookout for his podcasing effort, Netflips.  And if you aren't sickened by this episode, then by all means leave some feedback at actionattraction@mail.com for your emailing/MP3 sending needs, or drop me a voice mail at 1-206-338-1819.  Mucho thanks!

So this episode talks about events that are about a weekend past... So what?  You still get to hear El Goro of Talk Without Rythym podcast, and the Sons of Metal podcast, and myself, talk about "Undisputed 3: Redemption".  You also get a side-review of the "Avengers XXX Porn Parody"... so this is a two-fer episode?  Among such topics brought up in the "Undisputed 3" discussion are what Street Fighter move shows up in the film, which cast members WOULD rock as part of a new Street Fighter movie, and what jail cells are best to take dumps in.  (And no need to worry: you do have a poop story in this episode.)  Unlike prison fight tournaments, you don't have to grow facial hair just to listen to this episode.  And you also don't need a turnbuckle-based knee brace to leap into some feedback, which you can leave by either writing me at actionattraction@mail.com, or dropping a voice mail at 1-206-338-1819.

Can you believe I've been recording for 3 years now?  Sure, I'm not regular about it, but 3 years at it has got to mean something.  So, for such a special occasion, my original voice mail line died, and I reviewed a potentially gold-standard Action movie in "Expendables 2".  In this episode, we tackle the big subjects, like how great Dolph Lundgren is, what two things I want most in an "Expendables" film... and for a hint, they're usually on women's chests, and what weapon makes its glorious big-screen return for this movie.  Plus, feedback, and a NEW voice mail number!  So should you still wish to write, go on wit your bad self and write me at actionattraction@mail.com, or should you wish to venture into the new VM number territory, the number to remember is 1-206-338-1819.  Thank you, everyone, for sticking with this mush-mouthed train wreck for so long, and as long as you keep listening, I'll keep shooting for... the stars?  Maybe more like the Death Star open vent.

In a episode so long, you can watch the movie twice over yourself, Jake McLargeHuge of http://podcastwithouthonorandhumanity.libsyn.com and I team up to shoot the breeze about recent viewings, crap stories, and a review of an Albert Pyun milestone, "Cyborg", staring Jean-Claude Van Damme and Vincent Klyn's tourette's symptoms.  We tackle the important questions of whether watching people have sex in the post-apocalyptic future is no worse than watching internet porn, why do stop-motion cyborg women look a little "touched", and what makes pirate Dee Snider not want to take it, anymore.  Also, guest appearances by a gang that looks an awful lot like Slipknot, and a whetstone scene you must hear to believe.  Plus, feedback and an exciting announcement for what comes next episode.  So until then, feel free to get in touch with the show through actionattraction@mail.com for your mailing needs, or 1-206-202-4210 for your voice mailing needs.

Black Belt Jones is back in the house, so you know you're in for a good episode.  It may be short, but it sure is sweet. ... No, that's not the pick-up line I used back in high school.  In this coverage of "Three the Hard Way", we get the mightiest super-team since the Avengers, topless interrogation, a drinking game involving how many nut shots BBJ delivers, and one celebrity cameo I was literally gobsmacked about.  Also, the usual recent viewings and feedback, so what more do you want?  How about wanting to leave some feedback to actionattraction@mail.com for the e-mail route, or 1-206-202-4210 for the voice mail route?

What did I say in this episode?  See what a week of bad sleep, heat exhaustion, and allergies can do to a man, as I stumble through recent viewings, feedback, and a review of something that SOUNDED like a great idea to revisit, "3 Ninjas: High Noon at Mega Mountain".  I do remember snippits of ranting about how much I hate TumTum, how great it is that Hulk Hogan acknowledges his baldness, how Loni Anderson scares me a bit... and did I mention how much I hate, Hate, HATE TumTum?  Plus, as mentioned, recent viewings and feedback.  Which, should you hide your head in shame after this episode, you can feel free to leave me either via e-mail at actionattraction@mail.com, or voice mail at 1-206-202-4210.  You can also drop an MP3 recording if you wish, and join the Facebook group.

In an episode that will clear your sinuses up faster than a blast from Elle's laser pistol, or a whiff from the Emperor of the Stars' space coke lines, Thomas Berdinski (director/writer/actor/special effects person/alter-ego of Sasscratch), Richard Dean (writer/editor/artist), and myself (dumbass podcaster/even more dumbasser feedbacker to other shows) tackle the Luigi Cozzin film "Starcrash".  We also address some serious issues, like how does David Hasslehoff fight between puking in a bucket between takes?  Or why does Stella Star wear MORE clothing as the film goes on?  Or is Joe Spinell the hottest member of the cast?  All this in a movie that we guarantee has 100% more kung-fun than that other "Star" film series.  What's it called, "Star Fight"?  "Star Battles"?  Eh, maybe some bearded guy in California can tell us the answer.  Should you wish to leave some feedback, you can do so via email at actionattraction@mail.com, or you can leave me a voice mail line at 1-206-202-4210.

Sure, she calls herself the "strongest woman in the world", but we all don't believe Lana Lang can live up to that reputation.  So to review the controversial "Street Fighter: Legend of Chun-Li" with me, I recruited the REAL strongest woman in the world: Emily of Deadly Doll's House blog, and GleeKast fame!  Watch as we trade haudoukens and psycho crushers with this flick, along with my recent viewings, and I think I even managed to fit in a poop story.  So you get your dollar's worth with this episode!  If you so feel the need, or urge, or drunken split decision, feel free to feed back to my show via e-mail at actionattraction@mail.com, or dropping a voice mail at 1-206-202-4210.  And hey, come along to the Facebook group, where much stupidity is to be had!

Hope you saved a chunk of your day... a GOOD chunk of your day... to listen to this monster of an episode.  Your favorite merry mutant, Metal Mikey, dragged along Jake McLargehuge from Podcast Without Honor and Humanity at http://podcastwithouthonorandhumanity.libsyn.com and the Lightning Bug from http://www.thelightningbugslair.com to cover the best at what he does... and what he does isn't very nice.  That's right, Logan AKA Wolverine AKA a guy Glen Danzig could've played more "macho" in "X-Men Origins: Wolverine".  How does a taste of Mighty Marvel on the big screen fare for a review?  Also, are you in the mood for three grown men to talk like gibbering comic nerds, and bring up recent viewings, and cover feedback?  My friends, this is the ultimate show for you!  Also, should you wish to snikt out some feedback, you can slash my e-mail account at actionattraction@mail.com, or berzerker barrage my voice mail line at 1-206-202-4210.

Where've I been?  What've I been up to?  When was this episode even going to get damn well recorded?  Why did I decide to spitball 3 Action movie reviews in one episode, namely "Superman 2", "The Avengers", and "The Raid: Redemption"?  Who is the lazy slacker that finally got off his arse to record?  Metal Mikey, of course!  In this episode, aside from giving you three reviews in one sitting, you also get a boatload of other viewing impressions, and feedback catch-up.  Consider this my apology card for being so lazy about a new episode.  Should you wish to yell at me... or hell... just even leave some feedback, you can either write me at actionattraction@mail.com, or drop me a voice mail at 1-206-202-4210.  And feel free to jump on into the Action Attraction Facebook group!  No... you don't have to buy a stock in FB to be a member...

Tis a tale old as time... Where I futz up a recording, and have to recite a review based solely on memory.  So, "American Kickboxer 1" is the film up for my semi-revisionist history reviewing!  Fashion tips and emotional content await those brave enough to explore further.  Plus, recent viewings, recent adventures, and recent trips to the bathroom.  All the joy you've come to love and expect from a typical Action Attraction!  So spread your love over to some feedback, if so inclined, by either writing me at actionattraction@mail.com or leaving me a voice mail at 1-206-202-4210.

A short but sweet episode... Well, shorter than others I've recorded as of late.  In this, I take on the first Sam Raimi superhero movie, "Darkman", starring everyone's favorite middle-aged warrior, Liam Neeson, and everyone's favorite pin-up, Larry Drake.  Oh yeah, and Francis McDormand is here, too.  In this episode, I ask a very specific question to my female listeners to the show... Wait... DO I still even have any of those?  Plus, we ponder how a person can talk without any lips, and a cameo from a B-movie legend.  Along with that, you also get the snack pack of a recent events/viewing spiel, and with feedback, you find out the winner of the Prize Package elimination tournament!  SUSPENSE!  And should you use the lips and non-burnt fingers you have to drop me some feedback, you can either write me at actionattraction@mail.com, or drop me a voice mail at 1-206-202-4210.

It's another episode of Andy Sidaris fun for the whole family!  Or at least the family that loves to watch boobs and softcore porn in their action films.  What movie am I covering?  ... Oh, you'll have to listen to find out.  But I also cover feedback, recent viewings, recent events, and even mention the brilliant drinking game you can find on my Facebook group.  Play along at home, and you'll never be sober, again.  But should you wish to get in contact with the show, you can either do so through e-mail at actionattraction@mail.com, or by sending me a voice mail at 1-206-202-4120. 

Black Belt Jones is back.  The prize package elimination contest is back.  Insanity in my life is back.  If you want an episode of many happy returns, this is THE one to listen to!  Yes, I do expand on the Jim Kelly feature "Hot Potato", but I also reveal thoughts on a load of recent viewings, fight off phone calls during recording, and tell you where you can actually spot me in person!  (Here's a hint; it's for some oddball Halloween People convention in Columbus, OH.)  Also, feedback!  Which reminds me... Should you wish to drop some, you can write me either at actionattraction@mail.com, or leave me a voice mail at 1-206-202-4210.  And don't forget to drop by the Facebook group.  It's more fun than being crushed to death, and bleeding out white toothpicks.

Metal Mikey, Cinemasochist Justin of the http://www.freakinawesomenetwork.com, and El Goro of http://tworpodcast.blogspot.com are your Stalkers for the evening, hunting down Ben Richards in his wedgie-condusive one piece at the command of Damon Killian.  ... Or we just do the first running commentary for, ironically enough, "The Running Man".  You can play along at home, playing this episode while the movie runs.  Or you can send your cosplay photos of yourself dressed up as Dynamo to me.  Whatever works!  Also, the next elimination for the AA prize contest takes place in this episode.  Suspense abounds.  And should you wish to leave me some feedback, cutie-pies, you can do so either through e-mail... and by proxy MP3 recording... at actionattraction@mail.com, or you can drop me a voice mail line at 1-206-202-4210.

In my review of "Red Sonja", I probably come off as a sexist, child abuse advocating, pig of a man.  But sometimes movies move me to unusual emotions.  I leave it up to you to judge my reviews... and whether Brigette Nielsen is actually hot.  Plus, random updates on life, recent viewings, feedback, and ANOTHER elimination in the Action Attraction prize package contest!  Should you wish to drop me a feedback line, please do so via e-mail at actionattraction@mail.com, or how'zabout a voice mail at 1-206-202-4210.  Muchos gracias!

Come back to the realm of Dungeons and Dragons with your cold-ravaged guide, Metal Mikey, for the second film in the franchise, Wrath of the Dragon God.  Does Dadomar wipe the Smurf jizz from his lips?  Have I found a new female action star love object to rival Cynthia Rothrock?  Which Z-level Avengers member happens to make an appearance in the film?  All that, plus a sad list of recent viewings, feedback, and the very FIRST elimination from the Action Attraction Prize Contest.  Should you wish to leave some feedback, please drop me an e-mail line at actionattraction@mail.com... and you can also send recorded feedback through there, as well.  But if you want to reach out and touch someone through the phone, the voice mail number is 1-206-202-4210.  Next week, Red Sonja time, peeps!

No reviews, no recent viewings, no feedback... BUT a listing of the proud entrants in the prize package elimination tournament await you in this episode.  ... I do also have time for some griping and excuses as to why this isn't the full review episode, but I did want to make sure the contest stuff was official.  And yes... NO MORE ENTRIES allowed after this episode.  Sorry, but I've got to stick to my time window.  But still, next week "Wrath of the Dragon God" awaits me.  And I'm sure it'll be wrathful, being delayed a week.  Should you still wish to drop some feedback, please do so at either actionattraction@mail.com or 1-206-202-4210.

All killer, and no filler... well... MOSTLY little filler, in this episode, where I brave the dangers of "Dungeons and Dragons".  Starring Jeremy Irons' great overacting, and Marlon Wayans' ability to make me want to commit homicide.  Will the spirit of adventure win out over horrendous CGI?  Listen and find out!  Or find out what I've been watching, or find out about feedback, or about the AA prize package contest, ending around Valentine's Day!  (Hint: Write in to my e-mail, with the title of either "Action Attraction Contest/Tournamet", and you'll be entered in.)  But should you wish to leave some feedback, you can do so either by dropping me an e-mail at actionattraction@mail.com or a voice mail at 1-206-202-4210.  And also, don't forget to hop on in to the Facebook group page for the show for some genuine craziness! ... Well, it will get there SOMEDAY!

Fantasy Month on Action Attraction begins with our first Robert E. Howard adaptation, "Kull the Conqueror".  Bet you can't guess what animal pisses on Kevin Sorbo.  Also, is this the film that Harvey Fierstein reveals his macho side?  And most importantly, coudl we please see a bit more of Tia Carrere's boob demon tattoo?  All those questions shall be answered, along with recent viewings, feedback, reminder of the tournament contest... which ends Valentine's Day for entries... for a HUGE prize package, and just general blather.  You can always feel free to contact the show via my e-mail address at actionattraction@mail.com, or send me a voice mail at 1-206-202-4210.

Admit it, you're really listening to this episode to hear the details of the prize package contest, which will run from now until Valentine's Day, and details are in the episode.  That's okay... As long as you stick around for my recent stories of stress and woe, delve into some feedback and recent viewings, and see if Chuck Norris impresses me any more with "Invasion U.S.A.".  Do late night ghetto drives startle Chuck?  Can a plucky female reporter come off as too replace the "pluck" with another letter?  What's Richard Lynch's finishing move?  Find out in this episode.  And also, please feel free to leave feedback at either actionattraction@mail.com or at 1-206-202-4210.

Ring rust may be a better name for this episode, but from the depths of illness, holiday stress, and nearly choking to death while recording, I manage to deliver unto you listeners a new episode, catching you up on my life, my viewing habits, and your feedback.  Want an episode with actual reviewing and a sense of direction?  It's coming!  But want some potentially entertaining randomness?  Enjoy!  And also, feel free to leave feedback at either actionattraction@mail.com or 1-206-202-4210.  Thanks for all your support, and a Happy New Year... late, of course.

Metal Mikey has one more guest-laden surprise for you for the Christmas season, as Emily from Girls on Film Radio and gleeKast, and Doctor Zom from the Silva and Gold Podcast, tie the ribbon on Hulk Hogan's package.  What?  Okay, we KIND OF review "Santa With Muscles", but I think we spend more time talking about "Cop Dog" instead.  If you love reviews that barely review a movie, then I hope you enjoy!  If you should wish to leave some feedback, then please do so at actionattraction@mail.com, or 1-206-202-4210.  Next episode out, I'll be catching up with that, on a regular show format.  And before I forget, Merry Christmas to all my listeners!

Baby Skeletor returns in this episode, and he brought a few friends, namely Cinemasochist Justin and Brian of the Hammicus Podcast, to review the Dolph Lundgren, Frank Langella, and... some random actress named Courtney Cox film "Masters of the Universe".  Toy talk, and technical difficulties, abound, but this is Action Attraction, where you know you like it rough!  (And hopefully the audio is MUCH better, this episode out.)  Should you wish to get in contact with the show, feel free to do so either at actionattraction@mail.com, or 1-206-202-4210.  Many thanks!

John McClane may have gotten himself into a situation even he can't get out of, when myself, Cinemasochist Justin, and Pickleloaf and Doctor Zom from the Silva and Gold podcast go fatal-four way on his second "Die Hard" adventure.  Is Franco Nero the true star of the film?  Does winter make action movies better?  Is Bonnie Bedelia hot?  Find the answers to these questions, and maybe one of the most random/offensive shows I've ever been party to, on this episode!  Should you wish to drop your potentially infuriated feedback, feel free to do so at either 1-206-202-4210 or actionattraction@mail.com!

What's the movie I'm covering?  Does it star Julie Strain?  How many things explode?  All this, and more, will be answered in my newest episode, along with feedback and other stuff that flies out of my mouth for a special Thanksgiving recording!  And should you want to give thanks for another episode, you may be free to do so either at actionattraction@mail.com or 1-206-202-4210.  Happy Thanksgiving, fellow listeners!

HorrorHound Weekend Cincy stories!  Recent viewings!  Rampant side show pluggings!  Feedback!  This episode may be more all over the place than an 80's coked-out Robin Williams.  Should you wish to add to the next show's insanity, please leave some feedback at either actionattraction@mail.com or 1-206-202-4210!

Gonna keep this short and sweet.  Review of the Reb Brown and Shannon Tweed vehicle, "Firing Line"!  Recent viewings!  Incoherent babblings!  Feedback!  All up in this business.  If you want to leave some feedback, which is always welcome, either actionattraction@mail.com or 1-206-202-4210!  Download away!

On this week's episode of Action Attraction, I tackle my very first Don "The Dragon" Wilson feature in "Future Kick".  Co-starring ole' bionic eyes herself, Meg Foster, and ole'... I can't think of a gimmick for him, Chris Penn.  Will this tale of a dystopian future be a winner, or will it fare as well as a loser in a Lasersword game?  And most importantly, how many strip club scenes are featured in this movie?  Listen to find out!  The usual madness ensues with recent viewings and recent events, as well.  So plop down on your butt, sir or madam, and enjoy!  And feel free to share your thoughts either through my voice mail line at 1-206-202-4210 or email at actionattraction@mail.com!

Stac and Cins from the Creepy Kitch podcast/blog (http://creepykitch.blogspot.com/) have shown up to help me out with a review of the 1980 cult classic, "Flash Gordon".  Oddly enough, this is the second appearance on the show for Sam Jones... who may still not be able to reach the lofty record of Jim Kelly.  So, where do we all stand with Ming's policies on Mongo?  Does Metal Mikey prefer Dale over Princess Alura?  Will you ever hear another episode of Action Attraction with more penis talk than this one?!?  Listen, and find out!  And when you're through hangin' with the Hawkmen, I would greatly appreciate feedback, because it WILL return next episode out.  So, for a reminder, please e-mail me at actionattraction@mail.com, or leave a voice mail at 1-206-202-4210.  Many thanks to you, and to Stac and Cins for making this episode happen!

Two two-fers in one movie on this episode!  Listen in awe and wonderment as I discuss "Shadow Warriors" featuring the second appearances of Terry "Hulk" Hogan and Carl Weathers on the show.  Is this movie more explosive than a crotch-grabbing grenade reaction, or does it come off as a dud, like the lack of explosive squibs on anyone that was shot in the film?  Plus, the usual round of personal life ramblings, and a woefully short recent viewing segment... and an even more malnourished feedback section.  So what say we make the next episode a happy fat cat, and please leave me your thoughts via e-mail at actionattraction@mail.com, or through voice mail at 1-206-202-4210!

Who cares about this supposed "tattoo connection"?  Spoiler alert: It's not a very good one.  BUT this is a new episode of Action Attraction where I review another staring vehicle for the patron saint of the show, Black Belt Jones... or some would call him Jim Kelly.  I also rattle off some recent viewings, fill you in on the thrills and chills of my life, and I even touch on seatbelt offers in my feedback!  If that doesn't make you feel safer, then you've obviously been eating too many raw hot dogs wrapped in a slice of bread.  But once your mouth and fingers aren't so occupied, I'd much appreciate feedback being left at either my TBD to expire email address at actionattraction@mail.com, or my still amazingly active voice mail at 1-206-202-4210!  And also, Happy late Labor Day, listeners!

No, I have not died.  No, I was not drafted into a Saigon prositution ring!  In this LONG awaited new episode of Action Attraction, you'll get the straight poop on what Metal Mikey has been up to since his last recording, as he also talks about other podcasts, recent viewings, and a format change for the show.  So, should you wish to encourage this young lad to new feats of bravery, and an actual feature review for the next episode, or make a man happy with some feedback, you may do so via e-mail at actionattraction@mail.com, or via voice mail at 1-206-202-4210.  And I WILL be back sooner rather than later!

The birthday buzz is gone, but the Action Attraction remains, as I gather together the brain cells I possess, to provide you with some intellectual discourse on the second pairing of Cynthia Rothrock and Metal Mikey.  ... Okay, it's not me, it's actually Richard Norton, but a guy can dream.  "Rage and Honor 2: Hostile Takeover" discussion includes what hairstyle to possess to best protect against bottles to the head, why hamburger should be included more as part of blood squibs, and a counting game involving damage to men's junk.  Fun for the entire family!  Plus, recent viewing options, your feedback, and a surprisingly small amount of recent events.  Should you so wish, please to leave some feedback of your own via e-mail at actionattraction@mail.com, or... provided you ARE calling my voice mail line... voice mail at 1-206-202-4210.

Wait... Come again?  It's Metal Mikey's birthday, and HE'S making the gift of this newest episode?  This is rather faulty logic.  But it was done!  I welcome you to listen to various ramblings, a financial offer of a lifetime, and a host of movie thoughts... including two that are Action movie related!  (As an added bonus, you can hear me slightly get increasingly frustrated over phone calls coming in.  No... They weren't birthday booty calls...)  Sit back, enjoy the chaos, and know that in the very near future, the love of my life, Cynthia Rothrock, shall get her attention.  Should you wish to leave some feedback, you can always write me at actionattraction@mail.com, or drop me a voice mail at 1-206-202-4210.  Hope you enjoy, and hell... I've been at this show for about close to 2 years of my life, so why stop now?  Expect more birthday insanity in the future!

A mini-episode a week-and-a-half in the making is FINALLY... ahem... "hammered" out, with a very non note-driven review of 2011's "Thor".  Will I be running victory laps on the Rainbow Bridge in enjoyment, or will I be tearing out Odin's Bristling Beardhairs, in frustration?  Listen and find out.  Plus, recent viewings, recent happenings, recent rantings and ravings, feedback... and even some extra music!  Fun times!  Should you wish to make like E.T., you have two options.  Use those glowing fingers to write me an e-mail at actionattraction@mail.com, or phone home to the Action Attraction voice mail at 1-206-202-4210.  Many thanks, for either option!

FLASH!!! AHHHH!!!  In a blaze of action, I deliver a new episode!  In this, you'll find insane amounts of recent viewings, and even more insane amounts of personal life craziness.  And I also touch on one of the OTHER movies Sam Jones starred in, "White Force".  What do I consider this a spiritual successor to?  Does Sam Jones have Nightcrawler powers?  Can our female lead actually act?  And most importantly... DO YOU WANT TO BE SPLATTERED AGAINST THE WALL?!?  Download, and find out!  Also, I'd welcome any feedback, through e-mail at actionattraction@mail.com or voice mail at 1-206-202-4210.  Mucho gracias!

Easter has come and gone, so hope those Cadbury eggs have digested, because you may need that extra space to scarf down a new Action Attraction episode!  This one has it all: Drama, angst, laughter, and since I'm reviewing an Andy Sidaris movie... which is still a surprise... you're getting guns and girls!  (Sadly, those two latter things are what I SEVERELY lack in my own life.)  But should you wish to get in touch with me, you have two key options... since comments are apparently a no-go on this page.  You can either write me an e-mail at actionattraction@mail.com, or leave me a voice mail at 1-206-202-4210.  Either or, you shall be greatly appreciated more than Julie Strain's duo of talents! 

When Ice-T says "Jump", it's usually followed by an "M'Fer".  So he finally got on my ass to deliver the review of his film, "Surviving the Game".  You get this, plus recent viewings, and recent events... from about a week and a half ago.  Hey, at least I FINALLY got the episode out!  And this is the start of a very productive week, so buckle your seatbelts!  If you should wish to maybe pimp-slap me with some feedback, you're good to go with either e-mail at actionattraction@mail.com, voice mail at 1-206-202-4210, or comments on the Libsyn page.

Metal Mikey does not die, he multiplies!  Or rather, he records a short episode talking about the delay for the "Surviving the Game" review episode, and gives you minor updates on his life.  At least you can say this episode was short!  I may even say this could be an episode you could take a bathroom break with!  So, be patient, for a full-lengther is coming soon.  Until that time, please to send me more feedback at actionattraction@mail.com, 1-206-202-4210, or on comments on the Libsyn page.  Thank you for your patience, because it WILL be rewarded soon!

Piping hot in your hands is an epic-length episode of Action Attraction, done just before my trip to HHW Indianapolis!  This week, I probably sound more brain damaged than usual... but manage to cover a lot of recent events, recent viewings, and recent feedback pieces.  (Many thanks to those that helped fill that gap!)  Oh yeah... And there's a review of "The Beastmaster" somewhere in the episode.  Hold on to your leather undergarments, you Marc Singer appreciators!  We'll see if this movie has the might of a blackface tiger, or wimpers off like a chastised ferret.  If you so choose to do so, feedback is ever appreciated, either by e-mail at actionattraction@mail.com, voice mail at 1-206-202-4210, or comments on the Libsyn page.  And if I'll be seeing you this weekend in Indy, slap me some skin brothas and sistahs! 

No real review, this episode, but you get a metric ton of rambling, and it's still me getting an episode out with NARY a week's difference!  Not too shabby, I think!  Feedback was light, so... for the LAST time... I would please ask to make next episode one for the ages with your intelligent thoughts?  The e-mail is actionattraction@mail.com, voice mail at 1-206-202-4210, and comments on the Libsyn page.  Mucho-thanks-o!

Jim Kelly AKA Black Belt Jones is now the first official Action Attraction triple-crown winner for this third movie of his to be reviewed on the show, namely "Black Samurai".  Does he kick a few more dudes in the junk?  Can a flight helmet contain his afro?  Will you feel sorry for him when his female co-star welks on P.D.A.?  Listen, and find out!  Plus, you also get my usual potporri of rambing insanity on my life, and recent viewings.  I think I even go on a bit of a trailer tear in this episode.  Good times, one and all!  I would appreciate sharing your feedback to the masses, either by e-mail at actionattraction@mail.com, voice mail at 1-206-202-4210, or comments on the Libsyn page!

Drogg it!  I AM THE LAW!!!  (I knew you were going to say that!)  Won't you join me, as I deconstruct the Sylvester Stallone vehicle, "Judge Dredd", and see if it stands up before court, or gets a good ole' fashioned neck-poppin'.  Plus, your feedback, recent viewings, and a FIRST: a pre-date Horror story!  Should feedback be burning a hole in your pocket, please drop it through e-mail at actionattraction@mail.com, voice mail at 1-206-202-4210, or comments on Libsyn.

Now that you've gotten the "Clerks" line out of your system, listen as I go over the 1990 Charlie Sheen/Michael Biehn vehicle "Navy Seals".  (And both their names kinda rhyme.  Impressive...)  Plus, your usual assortment of recent viewings, feedback madness, and rantings and ravings that only a semi-psychotic like I can deliver!  I always welcome feedback through e-mail at actionattraction@mail.com, voice mail at 1-206-202-4210, or comments on the Libsyn page.

Doc Brown couldn't come up with a better time-travelling device than this episode that was LITERALLY two weeks in the making... in segments!  You'll learn about that story, along with recent viewings, and stuff in my life.  As if that wasn't enough, I'll also try fitting around the bug inplant in your skull a full review of the Arnold Schwarzenegger vehicle, "Total Recall".  As Joe Bob Briggs might say about this flick, there's blood, boobs, and beasts aplenty to behold in my review!  As always, I heartily welcome feedback either by e-mail at actionattraction@mail.com, voice mail at 206-202-4210, or comments on my Libsyn page! 

Cynthia Rothrock's continued threats of violence to my genitalia have succeeded in getting her starring vehicle "Rage and Honor" reviewed for Action Attraction.  But there's plenty of love for the female fans, since Richard Norton and Brian Thompson showcase their tough tits for the review.  Plus, Daisy Duke shows up as Lieutenant Einhorn!  Plus feedback, recent viewings, and a hint at personal appearances at conventions to come.  This episode is more weighty than two hamhocks being used for a double-down sandwich.  Please leave some feedback either at actionattraction@mail.com, 1-206-202-4210, or dropping me a Libsyn comment.  Awesome times!

Before 2010 ends, and 2011 begins, Metal Mikey takes you to the year 2136, to chill with Wolff, the bounty hunter... and clothes sharer to Han Salo, as he seeks to rescue three video vixens from Michael Iron-cyborg, and tagging along is the deceptively mature jailbait Molly Ringwald!  All this and more is found in my review of "Spacehunter".  Also, you get a metric crapton of recent viewings, feedback, and a musical treat at the end of the episode.  So, should you wish to get in touch with the show, you have three equally entertaining options: e-mail at actionattraction@mail.com, voice mail at 1-206-202-4210, or leaving comments on the Libsyn page.  Happy New Years, peeps!

Gather yerself some eggnog... because it sounds like I got soused on it... and relax with one of the LONGEST AA episodes ever!  Surprise movie review, loads upon loads of feedback, and Metal Mikey also could add Mumblemouth to his title at some points for the show!  Plus, make sure to listen after I'm done rambling for an added musical Christmas treat.  More exciting than the "Star Wars Holiday Special" guaranteed!  Should you want to spread some holiday cheer/ general throughts, please do so either by dropping me an e-mail at actionattraction@mail.com, leaving me a voice mail at 1-206-202-4210, or dropping a comment on the Libsyn page.  As Deathbot 5000 has proven, I will read practically ANYTHING for the show.  Merry Christmas, troopers!

My week's been kind of rough.  I rant about it, and some of the irritating movies I've watched, recently.  But can Mr. T help me keep my cool, while trying to outwit scheming gangsters in this week's review of "Trouble Man"?  Open yer earholes, download, and you'll find out!  As always, I would love to hear some feedbackery, so please do so through e-mail at actionattraction@mail.com, leaving me a voice mail at 1-206-202-4210, or dropping a comment on the Libsyn page. 

Black Belt Jones does not write in on this episode... because he was busy kicking butt in the Wild West with Jim Brown and Fred Williamson in this week's feature, "Take A Hard Ride".  I also go over some amazingly poetic voice mail, talk about the "thrills" of my life at the moment, and give you a peek into how women interract with me, through another dating Horror story, and a memorable feedback piece.  And there's hairy-chested Lee Van Cleef in the mix, too!  You know you want this episode!  You know you also want to leave me some feedback through either actionattraction@mail.com, 1-206-202-4210, or leaving comments on the Libsyn page!  (Well... I at least HOPE you want to leave some feedback...)

Oh hai Internet!  I'm kind of possessed by the spirit of Tommy Wiseau for this description, because the movie I review for this episode, "Lady Street Fighter", is a near spiritual successor to "The Room".  Want to hear more about that, along with the topsy-turvy life Metal Mikey leads, then this is the place you want to check out!  Feel free to leave me an e-mail at actionattraction@mail.com, or a voice mail at 1-206-202-4210, or drop me a comment on the Libsyn page.  All feedback is appreciated... even if I do trip and mangle through it, and thanks!

Two long weeks of trials, and apparently mostly errors, have resulted in Metal Mikey returning for another show.  I talk about a metric ton of movies, update you on life stuff, and tell a story that pretty much explains why I keep bringing back the tired "Date Metal Mikey" contest.  I would be honored to hear from y'all, and do you know the ways to do so?  There's writing me at actionattraction@mail.com, leaving me a voice mail at 1-206-202-4210, or dropping me a comment on the episode post!

Have a lust for helicopters?  Want to see Nicolas Cage be Nicolas Cage?  Curious if Sean Young has more acting ability than one of the aforementioned choppers?  These, and other questions, are answered in my latest episode of Action Attraction!  There's a lot of other stuff talked about, as well!  As usual, please do fly me an e-mail at actionattraction@mail.com.  And yell out how you ARE the greatest on my voice mail at 1-206-202-4210.  And also, don't forget, voting is being taken for next episode coverage: either "Disco Godfather" or "Four of the Apocalypse".

By the grace of Libsyn assistance (Thanks, Phil!), you now have the long-awaited "Last Boy Scout" review for Action Attraction!  This episode is so thrilling, I can't even remember what I talked about in it!  (And that's not just because I recorded it about a week ago!)  Please feel free to express your equal joy and enthusiasm by either writing me at actionattraction@mail.com, or leaving me a voice mail at 1-206-202-4210, or dropping me a comment!  Huzzah!

When it comes to putting together an episode based on sheer randomness, Metal Mikey packs a whallop!  Hear about recent events, catch up on some feedback, and absorb a lot of movie discussion.  (I guess by default, my epsiode's main review is "Scott Pilgrum VS. The World".)  If you so wish to write me, please do so at actionattraction@mail.com.  If I have to beg and plead for you to call in some voice mail at 1-206-202-4210, I have next to no shame, there.  And if you enjoy lots of shows to choose from to listen to, please be sure to check out www.pennycult.com , for the Pennycult Production family! 

An episode so touch, it took MULTIPLE attempts to upload it!  "Gunmen" review, feedback, Metal album talk, it's all up in here!  Should you wish to write me, please do so at actionattraction@mail.com.  Should you wish to call me with feedback, please do so at 1-206-202-4210.  Should you wish to explore the Pennycult Productions shows, please do so at www.pennycult.com.

So Metal Mikey and Carl Weathers walk into a bar.  Mikey tells him about a podcast he wants to create, called "Action Attraction".  Carl thinks it's such a great idea, that he decides... years earlier... to rip it off in a film called "Action Jackson".  This causes Mikey to have a near fatal brain ailment, trying not to screw up the name of his show for his review of the Carl Weathers/Craig T. Nelson/Sharon Stone/Vanity/every damn person you've seen in an 80's Action movie movie!  You also get to hear a TON more Libsyn comments from two certified celebrities, hear about a wrong number incident, and just have fun with another episode.  Good times!  If you want to add your own interpretation of Vanity's singing style to the show, call in to 1-206-202-4210.  (No Kevins here, though.)  If you want to write about that time you also kept up in a footchase with a speeding vehicle, leave me an e-mail at actionattraction@mail.com.  For a website featuring shows with less potentially confusing names, but still great entertainment, check out the Pennycult Productions site, www.pennycult.com.

 

Even with lack of qualified sleep, Metal Mikey manages to record a MONSTER of a new episode of Action Attraction!  This time out, I ACTUALLY get on the ball, and respond to some voice mail... ON. MY. OWN.  (So, now that y'all know I got my stuff together on that front, ESPECIALLY don't be shy, and please do drop me a line at 1-206-202-4210!)  I also enter the crazy world of real-life ramblings, totally awesome comments left onmy Libsyn page, and talk about a lot of movies I've caught recently.  (Yes, "Action Jackson" will still be coming later this week.  That will probably be an epic episode of my constantly confusing my show name with the movie name!)  In short, this episode is an ADD person's dream come true!  Again, you want to drop me your thoughts like a flying elbow off the top turnbuckle, feel free to do so by ccalling me at 1-206-202-4210.  I can also be reached, via e-mail, at actionattraction@mail.com.  My posse of the podcasting world can be found at www.pennycult.com.  We're all wanted alive, because we're dead-on entertaining!  You betcha!

Step inside my Dojo, which is right next door to Black Byrd's Karate School.  There, we shall learn from Black Belt Jones... birth name... , the master of kicking people's butts, maintaining balance in soapy car washes, friend to all random trampoline jumping women, enemy to every glass window in existence, amusing noise maker... AND master seducer of women, while being a jerk to everyone around him.  In this week's episode of Action Attraction, we tackle "Black Belt Jones" as the main feature.  I also talk about my recent trip to Monster Mania, along with my visit with Amy and Joan, of http://babygirlminxiedesigns.com/ fame!  I bring a lot of recent viewings to the table, and generally offer up my usual mangling of the English language for your amusement!  If you should wish to write me up instructions on how to become a Trampoline Super Spy, do so at actionattraction@mail.com.  Should you wish to hire your thugs to tap a phone line to make your ransom calls, you can do so at 1-206-202-4210.  And a fine group of people that are absolutely NOT going to let Sydney and Black Belt Jones ruin our picnic... along with putting out fine web content... is the Pennycult Production Family, which can be found at www.pennycult.com!

Metal Mikey pays a visit to his family relations in Outworld.  Apparently they decided to hold the Mortal Kombat tournament in celebration.  So I then decided to invite the hosts of Pennycult's own Wrecking Crue Radio, Jay Emmitt, Stuey D, and Questionable Mic, to join in on the tournament action.  (I also brought some Muddy Buddies.  Thank you, Chex box recipes!)  In this episode, we discuss the two "Mortal Kombat" feature films.  One fares rather well, and one... well... let's just say that Babalities are a better idea than the other one.  We also discuss... well, at that recording... recent viewings we had, and just generally talk like a bunch of fully grown nerds.  (To those ladies of the Action Attraction audience, I may warn you this episode is a bit "dude-like".)  So... Shoot out your Scorpion death rope to pick up your cell phone, and leave me some voice mail at 1-206-202-4210!  Or you can write me an email with, hopefully, better vocal delivery than Queen Sindel at actionattraction@mail.com.  And you can find the Wrecking Crue themselves, amongst other fine shows, at www.pennycult.com!  (This episode was recorded before "The Expendables", so the plan for the next solo episode is pretty much as is from "Expendables".  Looks like "Black Belt Jones" is in the viewing forefront!)

Metal Mikey takes to the field of the theaters, to bring you coverage on the movie that... unless you just didn't know a thing about Action Attraction... was EXPECTED to be brought up on the show.  This episode gives you a review of Sylvester Stallone's Action offering, "The Expendables", starring a buttload of people that can probably serve you ten different varieties of whooparse.  The review is kept pretty spoiler free, and I get almost schoolgirlishly giddy over the review.  Plus, I also spew forth my usual life nonsense, and talk about other junk I watched.  This will be the episode that will essentially make your chest into a Chia Pet of hair magnificence.  Should you wish to write in with your limmerick stylings that would put Jason Statham to shame, drop me an e-mail at actionattraction@mail.com.  Want to put the call out to me while the show's in the middle of a standoff with Somoli pirates, call the voice mail at 1-206-202-4210.  And check out my own little group of mercenaries willing to blow as much up as possible at www.pennycult.com for the Pennycult Production group!

Let the listeners rule!  (And indeed, you do!)  Metal Mikey catches up with some voice mail, plays some new promos, ramble a lot, and lets Zombie Farmer do some soapboxing as well!  To those that listen to the show, and leave feedback, many thanks to you!  Should you want to get the gravy train of feedbackery, you have one of two options.  Either writing me at actionattraction@mail.com, or leaving voice mail at 1-206-202-4210.  Or you could give my Pennycult Production family members some loving by checking out www.pennycult.com.

Betcha never knew that after the apocalypse... whenever it happens... but in the year 2019, Cirque du Soliel would start up its own gang, Darth Vader would inspire military fashion, fertile women are refridgerated for humanity's own good, and chain-mail sleeve jackets could look SO good.  Metal Mikey reveals this, and many other details, during his review of "2019: After the Fall of New York".  He also tinkers around with some audio tricks in this episode, randomly blabbers on, and delivers the hot, steaming pile of show you so enjoy!  So, if you want to call in with sounds more piercing than a Eurak audio torture device, leave me a voice mail at 1-206-202-4210.  If you want to write about why robots and cyborgs make terrible soldiers, drop me your thoughts at actionattraction@mail.com.  And serving no loyalities to the Euraks or the Federation, but still destined to be a power in the post-apocalypse, is the Pennycult production family, to be found at www.pennycult.com.

This episode is DESIGNED to drive you batty, as Metal Mikey takes a side route for his usual show, and discusses a lot of movies in general.  Some visits to the Action genre do happen, but it's a pretty ecclectic mix.  You also get the return of general life ramblings, and hear some of the "brilliant" comments left on his podcast page!  With so much stuff going on in this show, you'll feel like an accomplished juggler at the end!  So hopefully you've left room in your juggling routine to grab a phone and juggle-dial 1-206-202-4210 for voicemail feedback, or try handling typing out an e-mail to actionattraction@mail.com.  And while you've got that keyboard on a return trip to your hands, why not also use it to type in and explore www.pennycult.com? 

From the unusually scenic wastelands of the post-apocalypse, Metal Mikey arrives to tell a story about questionable fashions, exploding people, that annoying brat from "House by the Cemetary", and George Eastman being a backdoor man!  If those details about "New Barbarians" AKA "Warriors of the Wasteland" don't get you all excited, then maybe my blathering about other recent viewings will.  If you wish to give me your best "gunshot/laser" sound effects, then please leave me a voice mail at 1-206-202-4210.  If you feel mass extermination of every human, outside of your lil' group of Templars, sounds like a swell idea, write me your manifestos at actionattraction@mail.com.  And speaking of gangs I choose to rule the apocalypse with, you can find out more about them at www.pennycult.com.

Metal Mikey hangs with one of the biggest Action icons of all time.  No, no, not Arnie, Sly, or even the girth of Seagal... but the G-Man himself, Godzilla.  "Godzilla: Final Wars" comes around to Action Attraction, with it's smorgasboard of monsters, mutants and "X-Men".  (Believe me, it makes sense that the last two are separately mentioned.)  Will Godzilla survive the onslaught of multiple monster attacks, a movie review, and being possibly upstaged by MMA legend Don Frye?  Listen to the show and find out!  Plus, I give hints of things to come for Action Attraction, and list WAY too many movies recently viewed!  Funtastic!  So if you want to confess to being part of an alien race that's too complicated to name for us humans, give me a call at 1-206-202-4210.  Or if you want to write up a report for the Earth Defense Forces on why giant monsters aren't such a bad thing, pass it on to me at actionattraction@mail.com.  And speaking of Earth Defense Forces... a branch of theirs that deals with the fight against boredom with lots of fine podcasts can be found at www.pennycult.com!

For Memorial Day, Metal Mikey takes a field trip with Charles Bronson and Jill Ireland in "Assassination"!  Listen in amusement as I become more and more incoherent during the course of my review... probably because I was so startled by the plight of Bronson's and Ireland's cross country trip to avoid being killed by mostly non-descript mercenaries.  Hear me talk about poor characterization, questionable dancing, interesting fashion choices, and other funtastic stuff!  Should you want to profess being all over Bronson's weenie as much as his Asian co-stars, call me up at 1-206-202-4210.  If you want to write me a letter that's better than how women were written for this movie, drop me a note at actionattraction@mail.com.  And what better way to celebrate Memorial Day weekend than by checking out all the fine Pennycult Production family members of mine at www.pennycult.com! 

Let me tell ya, something, BROTHER!  Metal Mikey gets off his ass, to record the long-delayed review of the Hulk Hogan... er... award winner at some guy's film festival movie, "No Holds Barred".  Watch Rip as he fights, snorts, shows off his disturbingly leathery body, and try and mack with the Black Scorpion herself!  Plus, I announce the winners of the "No Holds Barred" DVD contest!  (But spoiler alert: Pretty much everyone that entered wins, to a certain degree.  I'm that nice of a guy.)  And yes, there's even further ramblings, making this one of my longer shows.  Good times for all, I guess?  If  you want to tell me about the time some roided out maniac scared the dookie out of you, either call me at 1-206-202-4210, or if talking about it is too embarrassing, write me at actionattraction@mail.com.  And be sure to check out the ultimate gathering of the "Tough Guys" at www.pennycult.com.  What're you waiting for, jockass?!?

Is the reason why Metal Mikey has not recorded for so long because he was revisiting his male prostitute days, to track down the people that murdered his police friend?  Or could it be technical glitches that have fought him like only the toughest transsexuals could?  Find out in this newest episode of Action Attraction, where I cover the mid-80's slice of fun, "Avenging Angel".  I also catch y'all up on recent events, viewings, and even tease another episode this week.  Whatever could it be?  Just think back on a lil' contest I held, and you'll see what I mean.  So, if you want to give me any tips of horrendously abusive to prostitutes thugs, give me a voice mail at 1-206-202-4210.  Or if you wish to write me up a street busking routine that will totally blow the hell out of Yo-Yo Chaplin and Johnny Glitter, send me an e-mail at actionattraction@mail.com  And lest y'all forget, check out www.pennycult.com to patronize my PC Family members!

Upon failure to receive a working copy of "Double Impact", Metal Mikey's night is saved with the arrival of the World Warriors.  Er... kinda.  At least watching another Jean Claude Van Damme movie happens in this episode, when I cover 1994's "Street Fighter".  That's right, you do NOT have to waste your own quarters to play this episode covering a movie based off a video game.  Just bask in the warmth of my own ludicrious observations, talk about what I've recently watched, and just generally talk my fool head off!  If you want to send me your proposals for how Bison dollars would work in today's economy, write me at actionattraction@mail.com.  Or try and pass off an obviously foreign accent as your being all-American by calling me at 1-206-202-4210.  OR check out the other fighters at your fingertips at www.pennycult.com!  And before I forget, you have until the first week of May to send me your top 3 nominations of the Hulk Hogan impersonation contest, to see who wins their copies of "No Holds Barred" on DVD!

This week, Metal Mikey reviews... NOTHING.  Rather, I catch up on my voice mail backlog, with the assistance of Zombie Farmer.  So, really, this episode is all about YOU, the listeners!  (But I still make as little sense talking about your thoughts as I do about my movies, so it's still business as usual!)  Thank you all so much for sending in your feedback, and please keep on doing so!  You can go through voice mail at: 1-206-202-4210.  Or you can write me at: actionattraction@mail.com.

Kick... Punch... It's all in the mind!  It's also all up in this episode of Action Attraction, where Metal Mikey tackles the Jean Claude Van Damme feature "Kickboxer", AKA a whole lotta montage.  I manage to discuss the movie, at length, between many varied insane ramblings, and announce a few things for upcoming shows.  So get that decoder set ready!  When you're in the middle of performing the splits, drop me a voice mail at 1-206-202-4210.  Or use those deadly accurate feet to type out an e-mail at actionattraction@mail.com.  Or even better yet, dip your hands into the glue box, and sort through the various shows available at www.pennycult.com.  Better to get them stuck on you, instead of broken glass! 

Metal Mikey walks into a bar, and notices a brawl starting between two movies... "Ninja Vixens: Forbidden Paradise" against "The Warriors".  You have to listen to find out who wins.  (Here's a hint; the winner got picture coverage for this episode.  Oops, maybe a little too blatant.)  I also talk about other viewing stuff, touch on my Horror Hound Weekend trip... because other shows will talk it up MUCH more than I will, and offer up more of my trademarked ramblings.  So, feel free to notify me of any offers for hot Japanese female ninjas via my e-mail at: actionattraction@mail.com.  Or send word to the gangs of New York for my capture through my voice mail at: 1-206-202-4210.  Better yet, see the other members of the www.pennycult.com armies of the night.  CAN YOU DIG ITTTTTT? 

In Russia, quests go on Metal Mikey.  Mikey goes European this week with the Russian Fantasy film, "Wolfhound".  Will he find this story of revenge entertaining, will he think he wasted his swordsman skills, or will he just call up Ivan Drago to take up the mantle?  Either way, this episode will break you... into another new viewing experience!  Send your vodka-soaked voice mails to: 1-206-202-4210.  Or try and rival Nabokov's style by writing me an e-mail at: actionattraction@mail.com.  Also, if you're attending Horror Hound Weekend March 26-28 in Indianapolis, feel free to say hi to me, or any of my OTHER Pennycult productions brethern.  Where do you find them?  At www.pennycult.com!  Oh yeah, and ONE MORE WEEK for my Hulk Hogan "No Holds Barred" DVD contest!  Time's a-tickin'!

Women's history month is upon us, so Metal Mikey decides to watch a woman kick ass for his newest Action Attraction episode.  (Instead of the usual having his ass KICKED by women.)  Join him in a quest of discovery when he watches "Streets of Rage", starring one Mimi Lesseos, and find out if she measures up to his initial confusion of thinking she was actually Cynthia Rothrock on the DVD cover.  Regardless, there will be fights, and probably a spin kick or two.  Joy!  Ladies and Gentlemen alike can feel free to write me at: actionattraction@mail.com Or both genders can enjoy leaving me a voice mail at: 1-206-202-4210.  And humanity cannot forget about the Hulk Hogan voice mail contest for a DVD copy of "No Holds Barred", good until the first week of April!  ... PSST!  And you may want to check out my guest-starring gig on the Gentleman's Guide to Midnite Cinema...  Just sayin'... At http://www.ggtmc.libsyn.com/

Metal Mikey finds himself stuck in the jungles of Vietnam, again. But never fear! Gene Hackman's going to save his sorry ass! This week's film is "Uncommon Valor". Also, Mikey talks about why he took a week off, what he's been watching lately, and reminds you of a little Hulk Hogan impersonation contest taking place until the first week of April for a copy of "No Holds Barred". When it comes to this show, "You don't ever quit, boy. Not when it's for real!" So don't quit sending me voice mail at: 1-206-202-4210. And also don't quit writing me at:

actionattraction@mail.com

 

No “Red Scorpion” this week? Maybe it’s because Metal Mikey got lost in the City of Gold with Allan Quatermain. (And Sharon Stone when she was less bizarre.) Join Mikey on his viewing of “Allan Quatermain and the Lost City of Gold” for YOUR vacation spot! Also, the contest for a copy of “No Holds Barred” on DVD is still on! Call in your Hogan impressions for a copy, BROTHER! In fact, if you just want to call in… period, how about you do so at: 1-206-202-4210. Or you can write me some directions to the Lost City of Cold Hard Cash at: actionattraction@mail.com. (And yes… next week I SWEAR I’ll cover “Red Scorpion”!)

Don't think... Feel.  This line doesn't work with Metal Mikey and the ladies... BUT it does work for Bruce Lee.  Especially in the nigh-classic last film of Lee's "Enter the Dragon".  Metal Mikey talks about why it may not be his favorite Lee film, but it still probably one of the best he's watched for the podcast.  Plus, you get LOADED down with recent viewings, and get the rules of a new contest for some DVDs!  Want to know how?  Lissen to the show, durnit!  I'm not just gonna give it to you because you're a swell person!  ... Well, you ARE, but you get the drift!  So, use your bear-claw hand to type me up some e-mail at: actionattraction@mail.com.  Or use your Wolverine-metal hand to dial up my voice mail line at: 1-206-202-4210.  And be sure to get on over to www.pennycult.com!

 

You know what the secret of life is? It’s overacting, and Metal Mikey watches Jack Palance practice that principle in “Hawk the Slayer”. Witness a hero that makes Prince Adam look positively macho, and find out where J.D. from “Grandma’s Boy” originally came from! All this, and Mikey’s usual rambling. Grab your questing gear! How’s about you send a mystic scroll to actionattraction@mail.com? Or leave your prophecies on the voice mail line at 1-206-202-4210.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tOLNOWnBlnQ: The ONLY way you ever need to watch "Pocket Ninjas" in your entire life.

Metal Mikey addresses a question long pondered by philosophers: is that a Ninja in your Pocket, or are you just happy to see him? (The answer is no, it’s a copy of “Pocket Ninjas”, and it is bad… VERY BAD.) There’s also smatterings of randomness that will ensue, so why not sit back and enjoy the ramblings of a broken person? Send all your sympathy e-cards, or feedback, to actionattraction@mail.com. Or commend my bravery on my voice mail line at 1-206-202-4210. (And Kat may owe me a call for this one… Heh!)

Citizens of Kokomo, Indiana, BEWARE!!! Terrorists choose YOU as their next target... along with a group of stupid-ass teenagers in a detention hall! You'll find all the specifics when Metal Mikey reviews 1987's "Terror Squad", along with talking a bit too much about other movies he watched, and whining a bit about his life. But hey, it's all good in 'da hood for this new episode! Feel free to give me your homemade crossbow recipes by writing at: actionattraction@mail.com. Or call in your super-sweet "guitar solo" commentary at: 1-206-202-4210.

Metal Mikey comes back for the New Year, and he brings you ninjas! Lots of ninjas! Oodles of ninjas! ... Okay, you can stop coming, ninjas. This episode, I overall cover "American Ninjas 2 + 3", talk about some surprising recent viewings, and tell a story worthy of an After School Special. If you want to be a ninja, write me at: actionattraction@mail.com. If you want to attempt changing my mind, and sing the praises of Michael Dudikoff, then leave me a voice mail at: 1-206-202-4210.

Domo arigato, Mr. Roboto! Without you, I wouldn't have had public opinion sway me towards a viewing of Stuart Gordon's "Robot Jox" for this episode! I talk a bit about my holidays, amazingly talk more about this movie than I originally intended to... probably due to continual character name screw-ups... and invent a new drinking game in this episode! (Here's a hint; pick up on a saying I bring up MORE than once, unconsciously, and take a shot. Fun for the entire family.) Put this puppy in your digital player, and... "Crash and burn". (For the record, this movie ENTIRELY ran this catch phrase into the ground!) Feel free to write me at: actionattraction@mail.com Howzabout a voice mail at: 1 (206) 202-4210 Check out what my better-spoken fellows in Pennycult Productions are up to at www.pennycult.com!
