I love any movie with Lance Henriksen. I mentioned this movie to Lance at a convention when I was getting my copy of "Pumpkinhead" signed and he said no one ever brings up that movie. We talked about how originally his character was suppose to be a lot more religious, kinda a cult leader, and he toned it down and basically ad libbed all his lines. Fucking legend.
Supposedly when Cameron was pitching Terminator to Orion they didn't feel like it would actually be scary enough. Cameron had his first pick for the role (Lance Henriksen) show up in character. He scared the shit out of the execs and Cameron got his film approved. This is just a story I've heard many times but I have no reason to doubt it.
@@80sNewWaveGeek after I spoke with him he gave me a free auto on a pic of his character from “Stone Cold” and he signed it “GFTBD” and it took me a whole day to figure out what it stood for. Awesome dude!
@@flameroad123 Yeah, don't see that in many movies, especially these days, Modern Hollywood dose not have balls that. It makes the stakes higher as well as creates greater tension and drama and also makes the villains extremely easy to hate, leading to great emotional payoff when taken down. Its what made earlier Steven Seagal films fun to watch before stared to suck ass. Wish we had more colleterial damage in film.
Lance Hendrickson made me genuinely happy in this film. The whole scene with the gang visiting the guy in the hospital, and the harmonica, amazing. And Bosworth’s costuming is completely insane. Movie is good
Henriksen was real enjoyable throughout this film. As sadistic and evil as he was, he made me laugh a lot. William Forsythe and his awesome, heated performance was a close second for me.
Yep, not only does Boz fail to save Whip, but the entire Mississippi Supreme Court and an unknown number of cops and civilians. Pretty much a shutout for the forces of evil.
@@kevinramsey417 not really all bets are off when they ice the love intrest the fact that he kills and end an entire chapter of a biker gang fuck that the whole gang means he wins
@@JasonBrant Much like Hard Target, where the female character, who’s normally a love interest, gets killed right before the final act. JCVD HT Mullet is better, just off the sheer amount of liquid drip that comes off of it. Boz just a. Little hairspray, but Van Damme is dripping gels and just straight swamp funk humidity, from his. 🤣
Brian Bosworth at 50 years old still looks like this, just without the back half of the mullet and with a goatee on his face. He still could be in this movie exactly as he is without changing anything right now.
I've always wondered why Stone Cold wasn't a bigger hit. Maybe a couple years too late ('91)? Regardless, Lance Henriksen and William Forsythe are awesome in this. They chew up the scenery!
In a Q and A session Bosworth mentioned how nervous he was during filming (he had no prior acting experience), and gave a lot of credit to both William Forsythe and Lance Henrikson for helping him out and being very patient with him along the way. Apparently he legitimately put the dude in a hospital with that KO punch during the sand pit fight after the director insisted on him making his punches look more legitimate, then the whole cast went to a Motley Crue concert later that same night.
By the way Jason, I've checked out some of your other videos and your channel is awesome. You have a new subscriber. Might I suggest one of Scharzenegger's forgotten movies called Raw Deal? You guys might find it worthy of a review, it's a throwaway film he made under contractual obligation to Dino De Laureniis after refusing to do any more Conan movies following Conan the Destroyer.
@@shanarexorz9310 Indeed the 90's. Of course my GF rounds up and down pretty ludicrously. '93 and before was the 80's. I belive she has a bias being an 80's kid and all. Of course by her logic 3:20 or later is 4:00 her math skills are impeccable. Sorry I totally jerked the wheel of this conversation into on coming traffic my bad.
This is the the greatest movie ever! There is nothing not to love about it: Grody, reckless bikers everywhere; explosions that defy even the laws of movie physics; Stone’s unconventional pet (that is a legitimately great reveal); man cleavage galore; a banana hammock; and lots of mullets! What more can you ask for? By the way, I read your book a few years ago and remember enjoying it. I came across your channel just last week (“Sniper: Special Ops” was my introduction) and had no idea you were the same guy till I saw this. Keep up the great work on all fronts.
Wow, you are hitting home with this one. I was a football watching kid in Oklahoma in the late 80s. It's hard to explain to people who didn't live here back then how big of a star the Boz was. He was a legit superstar. He was as famous as you could be with out being a movie star or popstar, the Boz was huge here.
@@JasonBrant Lol, don't get me started defending him in Seattle. Led the team in tackles as a rookie. I was 8 years old in 88, had the flat top, long in the back, with the colored lines shaved in the side. He was my first super hero as a poor kid in Oklahoma.
Dude was a marketing genius. At a Sooners game there was a sea of anti-Boz t-shirts in the crowd. T-shirts made and sold by Boz' company. That's called a power move.
His ESPN 30 For 30 was pretty interesting. It was moving at the part where he starts crying in front of his son about his regrets while looking through his memorabilia in the garage
I have to admit I am NOT generally a fan of "reaction" content on RUclips. So much of it is poor but this channel and your content are excellent. Congratulations! When I need a laugh I just watch an episode with you guys. It's genuine, which is the most important thing. It seems you guys just have a hobby (watching crappy movies) which you have brought to others. You are all witty and engaged and throwing one liners at each other and having a blast. And the movies you watch and review remind me of my youth and "drive-in theatres", where you had to sit through a B movie before the main event. And occasionally you throw up a movie I had totally forgotten, like this classic! Could I suggest an Australian Classic from the 70's called "Stone"? Anyway guys keep up the great work!
The Pilot of the Helicopter who did the street level flying stunt was in fact the same pilot who flew the stunt in Terminator 2. His name is Charles A. “Chuck” Tamburro. He has also done stunts, or just regular flying for shots, in Smokey and the Bandit, Rocky, Rocky III, Convoy, Blade Runner, Rambo First Blood, the TV show V, the TV show Airwolf, Scarface, The Adventures of Buckaroo Banzai Across the 8th Dimension, Commando, Predator, Action Jackson, Die Hard, Lethal Weapon II, Demolition Man, True Lies, Se7en, The Rock, Gone in 60 Seconds, Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby, and Thor, along with a ton of others. Dude is a legend.
I watched this on HBO a million times. Just straight up, over the top cheese on top of cheese, but everyone is committed and it shows. The entire Capitol building finale is a masterpiece of action film making. Just jaw dropping that they were able to make that.
Little fun fact, the guy who does the backbreaker is TOM MAGEE from the legendary holy grail of tape traders in pro wrestling. The guy Bret Hart had a match with
Oh yeah, according to Bret, Tom was a prospective wrestler Vince McMahon favored to be the next Hulk Hogan. This Holy Grail match was Bret Hart sent to give the guy a test run. Bret did probably too good a job because it convinced Vince that Tom was the reason for the match. But by his next match (it may have been with Arn Anderson), he lost favor with the boss.
He looks like kenny omega that's crazy 😆 i can see why vince wanted him to be the next big deal though but i shudder to think how bad he truly was outside that bret match 😆
This is probably one of the greatest action movie debuts of all time..From football to a leading role in a hollywood movie, he had one hell of an agent and he was actually a half decent actor..Didn't hurt having an awesome cast either..Henriksen and Forsythe FUGGITABOUTIT!!! lol Great flick
The best part to me is Lance Henriksen as a villain. He is absolutely awesome as a bad guy (i.e. Hard Target). He's been one of my very favorite actors for a long long time.
Lance was so fun and fascinating to watch and listen to in this movie (his sporadic and perverse smiles and laughter throughout were a blast). laughed my ass off when he confronts and wastes that district attorney he hates so much.
Lance using a double barrel with no sides in Hard Target is one of my favorite villain things ever. Also the cheesiness works because Lance has tons of charisma
My dad was pretty speechless, when we left the theater, but that movie was the baddest ass thing, that my 9 year old eyes had ever seen!! Instant life long classic!
The helicopter stunt was done by Nam vet ChuckTamburro. He also did the T2 helicopter stunt under the overpass. Robert Patrick famously tells him to ,"Get out.".
This movie was made in 1991 but it wanted to be a 1980s movie so badly. 😂 I love it 🤣 Lance Hendrickson and William Forsythe both do play great bad guys too. Pure gold.
Actually, Mr. John, the early 90's were a continuation of the 80's with regards to some things such as action movies. I lived these times and can absolutely say so.
New to the channel, but I've been hooked for a few days now. Gotta say, you're homie on the left looks exactly like Kevin Arnold's dad in the original Wonder Years. Excellent work fellas, keep it up.
My ex bought me this on DVD 8 years ago. It was the only thing I kept from that relationship. Wish you would have shown the scene where Chains has the "death" sentence on tv and keeps rewinding it. Masterful performances all around. The fact you knew mountain was doing backbreakers as finisher earned you a sub. Not sure if you've done tango and cash yet but it's right there
This movie was a riot. It was like the last gasp of 80s hyper testosterone films. I don't know anyone who doesn't enjoy it just a little. And I keep thinking there has to be a Hell of a lot more footage from this film that was left on the cutting room floor. It's a shame Brian never really did anything this insane or notable afterwards. However, if you're looking for something in this vein: watch The Last Boyscout starring Bruce Willis and Damon Wayans. Made in 1991 it even features karate legend Billy Blanks for the first part of the film. And Vinegar Syndrome just released TC2000, and the Tiger Claws Trilogy which you guys have GOT to see!
Love The Last Boyscout. Such a nuts movie. Unfortunately, I missed the Vinegar Syndrome sale, so who knows when we'll get to some of their other stuff. Tiger Claws and TC 2000 look freaking amazing though.
Testosterone laden insanity... I am so glad I found this channel. Hysterical! A shout out for William Forsythe on this one also. He's been in some of the greats.
I saw this movie in the theatre when it came out, I was (still am) an OU fan and I absolutely had to catch the Boz in his first theatrical premiere. Once you see this movie, you have seen just about every 80's trope conceivable, you have watched the entire action movie era in this one movie.
Just found your channel this weekend and I have been loving your catalog. So many of these are favorites I would watch on our families old C Band satellite with a hacked card. Brings back lots of memories of all my friends and I watching these all night long. Thank you
I honestly think you guys are better than Mystery Science Theater 3k. Idk how you haven't been discovered. Thanks for the best laughing fits I've had in years !
We said the same thing about Cobra in our full-length reaction, but I didn't put it in this video. Total rip-off... but still hilarious. And yeah, that mullet is brilliant.
@@JasonBrant Dark Angel (aka I come in Peace) with Dolph Lundgren is another cheesy (sci fi) action movie that's perfect for this channel. You should definitely put it on your list.

Reading 'Ash' right on, thanks for the free download. Ok now I gotta watch your Stone Cold review. AWEEEEEESOOOME movie and hey, from 1:15 onwards that laugh is contagious.
The barber that cut my hair as a teen had a picture of "The Boz" on a corkboard where different hairstyles were featured. He once told me that some kid came in there and wanted that exact cut, so he spent quite some time trying to get the perfect replica of it. Kid gets done, walks outside and horrifies his Mom, who makes him walk back in and get a burr.
I have been binging the SBIG series for the past week. I do not understand how you dont have a bigger following. Keep up the amazing content!!!! These videos are hilarious!
You guys are awesome! I remember renting Stone Cold in 91 or 92 from my local video store. Rewatched it recently it holds up well. Cheesy 80s movie from the early 90s. One of the last of its Kind!
The helicopter is not the only similarity to Terminator films. Robert Winley was the biker Arnold stole his outfit from in Terminator 2. Lance Hendrickson was in Terminator 1. Also, the bike flying out the window into the helicopter was similar to how the t1000 acquired the helicopter in T2... I watched Stone Cold tonight. Great find!
Its an awesome movie not seen it for yrs. Use to watch this movie as a kid with my dad we both loved it. Great vid guys always funny and always entertaining keep thm coming.
Pretty sure that greasy dude in the nightclub is the Muay Thai kickboxing guy in Bloodsport. RUclips algorithm suggested you yesterday and I've subscribed and am binge watching all your videos. Classic!
I fuckin LOVE Stone Cold. It's cheesier than a bag of Cheetos. Bosworth was INSANE. Lance Henriksen and Bill Forsythe were outrageous. You gotta check out another Lance Henriksen biker gem called Savage Dawn. It's from '85. It's actually got a good cast: George Kennedy and Karen Black also star. It's fuckin nuts. I would recommend Near Dark, but it's actually very good movie. Haha. How the hell do you not have more subs, man? You guys are awesome!
Tip o' the hat from a fellow author. My novel is an homage to 80s era comic books. It's great that we get to honor these things. Hopefully we can convey some of that to our readers.
Saw it at the theaters and thought was incredible. Full of grit, fun, mullets, and over the top everything.always thought he should have been groomed for more action movies. The Rifftrax version is worth it, also.
The guy at 5:54, with the greasy hair, was also in Bloodsport. His name is Paulo Tocha and he played the muay thai guy with the red shorts. By the way, awesome channel 👍🤘
I’m getting flashbacks. In the 80s there was a movie theater where I lived that had $1 every Wednesday. I saw this movie, and so many more that you’ve reviewed, it’s scary.
I'm surprised that other random objects like chairs or drinks didn't spontaneously combust or explode. Dude, the EPM(Explosion Per Minute) is off the chart in this movie!
They say that certain steroidal‘supplements’ cause abnormal growth of the forehead…. This movie explains why Americans ran out of roids in the early 90’s. This dude and Arnold took all the good stuff
It's a shame the shoulder injury that cut short Boz's NFL career probably also prevented him from becoming a professional wrestler. His oversize personality would have fit perfectly in the WWF.
Boz killed a helicopter with another vehicle long before John McClane did. Stone Cold is the ultimate TBS Movie for Guys Who Like Movies. It is possibly the greatest movie ever made next to ROTOR.
Man, this movie really is a testament to why 80s/early 90s action movies have still a strong fanbase. Even though opinions in regards to the Boz's NFL career are polarised, i think that in the realm of movies he is pretty much iconic. Stone Cold was actually his only really big movie that broke out in the world of cinema but it has left a kind of legacy that is still present, if you are fan of raw old school action cinema. Had he been given a stronger film contract, for instance with Cannon Movies, he could have easily become as big as Chuck Norris/JCVD/Dolph Lundgren. His style is instantly recognizable, especially his iconic hair which even by 80s standards is super unique. What is defined today as the modern mullet is just the Boz haircut with some slight alterations. The Boz pretty much invented todays 'modern mullet' style in the 1980's, that's how unique he was. I have a mullet myself and after watching Stone Cold a few years ago, i tried to pull off his hair but the result wasn't that good haha. I ended up going back to the classic mullet, the Boz's hairstyle is indeed hard to copy. Other than that, Mr. Bosworth really had the confidence and the wits to become the next big action star. Correct me if i am wrong but from what i read about this movie, the Boz pretty much carried it all by himself that's why it turns out to be a very solid debut. This man didn't get the chance to succeed in the NFL and in the movies his career didn't go forward because of the changing trends in cinema, nevertheless he has retained a cult status. I found out more about him thanks to my love for oldschool action, so other action aficionados will probably come across him too. All the best to you guys and everybody, happy New Year. I hope that some day this kind of cinema will come back, there is still a strong fanbase in the world that wants it :)
I remember it vividly. I was maybe 8 and was taking a cruise ship in the southern region of Chile with my family. One afternoon this movie was suddenly broadcast(in subtitles) across all TVs on the ship and I loved every minute of it. Why they decided to air this movie, unedited boobs and all, on a ship full of families on a calm afternoon I will never know but the prepubescent boy in me was forever grateful.
Loved this movie when it came out, watched it with my dad and brothers at 11 years old! We started calling our BMX bikes horses lol notice the pilot AWOL is the same dude from ACTION USA
The Boz was a legend. I remember the hype around him when he joined the Seahawks. Like he was going to completely change the game of football because he was so good. But instead he's more famous for being one the biggest busts ever.
I was loving this, especially the amount of times this made you guy laugh and be amazed...but as soon as Bosworth said "Take a bow" and smashed the dude's head into the counter, I immediately went to go find a copy of this movie. The Joker stole Bosworth's joke!
can't believe I missed this movie. I want to see this now. Somehow it started just over the top. and still somehow progressed to get even more over the top, but gradually. kind of well paced.
I love this movie. I remember seeing it on HBO way way back when it first came out. Just does not disappoint. And it's one of the few movies where the bad guys win. Sure, they all get killed themselves but they %100 succeed in what they set out to do.
I watched this when I was a kid. I didn't know who Brian Bosworth was ,but he was awesome. Lance Henriksen is a legend. Plus the bad guy from Steven Seagal and Paco from Bloodsport.
Watched it on theatre for the first time back in the day. Laughed so hard I was nearly thrown out. I was so pumped I was working out the following morning at 7AM. It took me years to find and shoot the bad guy's Calico 9 autopistol. The helicoidal mag was so bad it never got past half capacity. But it looked like a space blaster.
Brian Bosworth would have been the PERFECT Duke Nukem.
Oh fuck yeah! Definitely a missed opportunity!
Dick Kickem.
Nah, Roddy Piper.
They even stole his lines for Nukem.
I'm here to kick ass and
chew bubblegum, and I'm all outta gum!

@@alistear7862 I also have heard that several times.

I love how the bad guys actually succeed in all their plans in this movie but Bosworth still gets to walk away looking like he won.
Looks like he's thinking. "Did I fuck this up"?
It's a breath of fresh air really because usually the hero comes in at the nick of time to save the day.
@@flameroad123 Yeah, don't see that in many movies, especially these days, Modern Hollywood dose not have balls that.

I don't understand how this one escaped me for so long enough. It's a treasure.
I would guess because it's pretty cliche and kind of seems like a weaker rewrite of Cobra. Plus Brian Bosworth wasn't exactly a deep range actor
@@jamesnoble3502 And Chuck Norris is..? :D
Probably because the mystique of Bosworth wore off the minute Bo Jackson dragged him into the endzone.
Henriksen and Forsythe are great in just about anything they're in. Bosworth was never a good actor.

Masterful performances all around. The fact you knew mountain was doing backbreakers as finisher earned you a sub. Not sure if you've done tango and cash yet but it's right there
Haven't done Tango and Cash yet, but it's on our watchlist. Thanks for the sub!
This movie was a riot. It was like the last gasp of 80s hyper testosterone films. I don't know anyone who doesn't enjoy it just a little. And I keep thinking there has to be a Hell of a lot more footage from this film that was left on the cutting room floor. It's a shame Brian never really did anything this insane or notable afterwards. However, if you're looking for something in this vein: watch The Last Boyscout starring Bruce Willis and Damon Wayans. Made in 1991 it even features karate legend Billy Blanks for the first part of the film. And Vinegar Syndrome just released TC2000, and the Tiger Claws Trilogy which you guys have GOT to see!
Love The Last Boyscout. Such a nuts movie. Unfortunately, I missed the Vinegar Syndrome sale, so who knows when we'll get to some of their other stuff. Tiger Claws and TC 2000 look freaking amazing though.
Testosterone laden insanity... I am so glad I found this channel. Hysterical! A shout out for William Forsythe on this one also. He's been in some of the greats.
I saw this movie in the theatre when it came out, I was (still am) an OU fan and I absolutely had to catch the Boz in his first theatrical premiere. Once you see this movie, you have seen just about every 80's trope conceivable, you have watched the entire action movie era in this one movie.
It so funny in the pit fight he has gloves, no gloves, gloves, no gloves lol. Great movie, love it.
Never noticed that. Good eye!
@@JasonBrant Look one more time. Its very often. A lot lol
Brilliant. Thank you for introducing me to this gem.
You gotta watch it. So much fun.
Just found your channel this weekend and I have been loving your catalog. So many of these are favorites I would watch on our families old C Band satellite with a hacked card. Brings back lots of memories of all my friends and I watching these all night long. Thank you
So Bad It’s Good has made my days that much better. Thank you!
This was kinda a dope ass film. Great stunts,special effects,dude got the look and legit coolness. I don't even think it was a bad film at all
I saw this at the movies.
I saw this in theaters when it came out and I was the only one in the theater, they even rewound it because showed up late.
How have I never even heard of this film!? It looks absolutely amazing!
It's a must watch. Merry Christmas!
I honestly think you guys are better than Mystery Science Theater 3k. Idk how you haven't been discovered. Thanks for the best laughing fits I've had in years !
Wow, thank you! I appreciate that.
@@JasonBrant Gotta give credit where it is due! So glad i found your channel.
I saw this on VHS back in the early 90's , it had tons of action, i enjoyed it back then too.
It's so great.
That is the mother of all mullets.
BTW: the opening scene is clearly a rip-off of the supermarket scene in Cobra.
We said the same thing about Cobra in our full-length reaction, but I didn't put it in this video. Total rip-off... but still hilarious. And yeah, that mullet is brilliant.
@@JasonBrant Dark Angel (aka I come in Peace) with Dolph Lundgren is another cheesy (sci fi) action movie that's perfect for this channel. You should definitely put it on your list.
@@wimvanderstraeten6521 I think I own that one. I'll put it on the list!
2:18 Olivia Newton-John on steroids
2:38 Jason poetically describing the taste of Olivia's concoction
2:46 Dave predicting the appearance of the pet alligator
2:52 Appearance of the low-budget pet alligator
3:00-3:06 Jason nailing the poetic description of Olivia's brow ridge
3:15 More of Jason's poetry 🍌(I gave myself a hernia from laughing so hard, thanks Jason!)
7:50 Me playing GTA Online
10:09 Also me playing GTA Online
Liking the content, it's like a friendship simulator recreating my favorite recreation of bad movies.
Thank!
I love how every single explosion in this movie caused by a collision occurs about 0.5-1 seconds before the impact occurs.
Reading 'Ash' right on, thanks for the free download.
Ok now I gotta watch your Stone Cold review. AWEEEEEESOOOME movie and hey, from 1:15 onwards that laugh is contagious.
Hope you enjoy it!
@@JasonBrant I actually am, thanks again
My man.
Bro! I'm so addicted to you guys reviews.. I'm binge watching every episode.. You guys are extremely funny and amazing..
Thanks so much!
Just recognized Paulo Tocha. I love watching older movies and seeing who I missed in them when I was younger
Such an awesome movie. Brian Bosworth was the man when I was a kid. I'm so glad you guys watched this.
This movie rocks.
The barber that cut my hair as a teen had a picture of "The Boz" on a corkboard where different hairstyles were featured. He once told me that some kid came in there and wanted that exact cut, so he spent quite some time trying to get the perfect replica of it. Kid gets done, walks outside and horrifies his Mom, who makes him walk back in and get a burr.
That's both hilarious and sacrilegious. Damn shame cutting off such a fine mane.
Your content is absolutely amazing. Gives me early Cinemassacre/Channel Awesome vibes. It's definitely fun watching this.
Thanks so much. That's a huge compliment.
I'm really enjoying all my childhood movies being on your channel.
Just found these SBIG videos and I’m hooked lmaoo these dudes are so funny
Thanks!
I have been binging the SBIG series for the past week. I do not understand how you dont have a bigger following.
Keep up the amazing content!!!! These videos are hilarious!
Much appreciated! Let's hope RUclips listens to you.
You guys are awesome! I remember renting Stone Cold in 91 or 92 from my local video store. Rewatched it recently it holds up well. Cheesy 80s movie from the early 90s. One of the last of its Kind!
We loved it. Can't believe I hadn't seen this back in the 90s.
The helicopter is not the only similarity to Terminator films. Robert Winley was the biker Arnold stole his outfit from in Terminator 2. Lance Hendrickson was in Terminator 1. Also, the bike flying out the window into the helicopter was similar to how the t1000 acquired the helicopter in T2...
I watched Stone Cold tonight. Great find!
Definitely a lot of 'homages' to Terminator. Glad you enjoyed it! Gonna be a staple around here
Lance was also considered for the role of Terminator but lost out to Arnie.
Bosworth looks like Randy Orton and John Cena! So trippy!
But with better hair.
Its an awesome movie not seen it for yrs. Use to watch this movie as a kid with my dad we both loved it. Great vid guys always funny and always entertaining keep thm coming.
Thanks so much. This movie was a blast!
The 'greasy' guy you mentioned has starred in two (that I know of) Van Damme movies: Pablo in Bloodsport and a Latino gangster in death warrant!
Bloodsport! That's where I recognize him.
Pretty sure that greasy dude in the nightclub is the Muay Thai kickboxing guy in Bloodsport.
RUclips algorithm suggested you yesterday and I've subscribed and am binge watching all your videos. Classic!
So glad I found this channel 🙌 yha'll are hilarious 😂 makes my day!
I'd like to make a humorous comment but Stone Cold is just too good. The helicopter scenes are otherworldly 👏 👏 👏
Dude, my mom woke up every morning for almost 30 years to the clock at 8:13. So much nostalgia.
I fuckin LOVE Stone Cold. It's cheesier than a bag of Cheetos. Bosworth was INSANE. Lance Henriksen and Bill Forsythe were outrageous. You gotta check out another Lance Henriksen biker gem called Savage Dawn. It's from '85. It's actually got a good cast: George Kennedy and Karen Black also star. It's fuckin nuts. I would recommend Near Dark, but it's actually very good movie. Haha. How the hell do you not have more subs, man? You guys are awesome!
Thanks! Near Dark is great, but I haven't seen Savage Dawn. So bad it's good territory?
@@JasonBrant No question. You guys'll be laughing your asses off. Guaranteed.
@@TheEnnisfan Sold. Added it to the list!
@@JasonBrant Excellent. Can't wait to see the reaction. You won't be disappointed. ;)
Tip o' the hat from a fellow author. My novel is an homage to 80s era comic books. It's great that we get to honor these things. Hopefully we can convey some of that to our readers.
Thanks! What's your book? Merry Christmas!
I love this movie! I remember finding this in one of my family members' collections when I was young. So good
Saw it at the theaters and thought was incredible. Full of grit, fun, mullets, and over the top everything.always thought he should have been groomed for more action movies. The Rifftrax version is worth it, also.
The bike exploding on impact is some Will E Coyote level shit and I love it 😂😂😂😂😂
The guy at 5:54, with the greasy hair, was also in Bloodsport. His name is Paulo Tocha and he played the muay thai guy with the red shorts. By the way, awesome channel 👍🤘
Oh, that's right! Good call. And thanks!
You guys are the modern mystery science theater
That's a huge compliment. Thanks!
Great memories of this one in the VHS rental days!
Love this movie.
This movie is childhood memories for me thanks for bringing this back to my attention.
Considering Bosworths acting experience..... Dude didnt do half bad in this and props for all the riding scenes he did himself.
Totally agree. He was great.
Brian Bosworth delivers action and Mayhem in all classic action movie with attitude
Hell yeah.
I’m getting flashbacks. In the 80s there was a movie theater where I lived that had $1 every Wednesday. I saw this movie, and so many more that you’ve reviewed, it’s scary.
I enjoy this channel so much, subscribed!
Welcome aboard!
This is the greatest thing ever. 😆
A nice change of pace after watching those Steven Segal movies. Lol
I'm surprised that other random objects like chairs or drinks didn't spontaneously combust or explode.
Dude, the EPM(Explosion Per Minute) is off the chart in this movie!
They say that certain steroidal‘supplements’ cause abnormal growth of the forehead…. This movie explains why Americans ran out of roids in the early 90’s. This dude and Arnold took all the good stuff
It's a shame the shoulder injury that cut short Boz's NFL career probably also prevented him from becoming a professional wrestler. His oversize personality would have fit perfectly in the WWF.
He looks so much like Sid Vicious they could have played brothers and it would have been extremely believable.
Your friend, how can one man be so pleased with himself? I love it!
Boz killed a helicopter with another vehicle long before John McClane did. Stone Cold is the ultimate TBS Movie for Guys Who Like Movies. It is possibly the greatest movie ever made next to ROTOR.
You have impeccable taste. Merry Christmas!
I love the RiffTrax take on it too.
Thanks.
When the motorcycle flew out the window and blew up the helicopter, I raised both my arms in triumph. Glad we're on the same page 😆 Subbed!
That was a great moment. Welcome aboard!
This was truly the Boz's calling because it damn sure wasn't the NFL.
Damn. Bringing the thunder.
He was a little small for a pro linebacker but wasn't a bad player until his shoulders prematurely wore out
Man, this movie really is a testament to why 80s/early 90s action movies have still a strong fanbase. Even though opinions in regards to the Boz's NFL career are polarised, i think that in the realm of movies he is pretty much iconic. Stone Cold was actually his only really big movie that broke out in the world of cinema but it has left a kind of legacy that is still present, if you are fan of raw old school action cinema. Had he been given a stronger film contract, for instance with Cannon Movies, he could have easily become as big as Chuck Norris/JCVD/Dolph Lundgren. His style is instantly recognizable, especially his iconic hair which even by 80s standards is super unique. What is defined today as the modern mullet is just the Boz haircut with some slight alterations. The Boz pretty much invented todays 'modern mullet' style in the 1980's, that's how unique he was. I have a mullet myself and after watching Stone Cold a few years ago, i tried to pull off his hair but the result wasn't that good haha. I ended up going back to the classic mullet, the Boz's hairstyle is indeed hard to copy. Other than that, Mr. Bosworth really had the confidence and the wits to become the next big action star. Correct me if i am wrong but from what i read about this movie, the Boz pretty much carried it all by himself that's why it turns out to be a very solid debut. This man didn't get the chance to succeed in the NFL and in the movies his career didn't go forward because of the changing trends in cinema, nevertheless he has retained a cult status. I found out more about him thanks to my love for oldschool action, so other action aficionados will probably come across him too. All the best to you guys and everybody, happy New Year. I hope that some day this kind of cinema will come back, there is still a strong fanbase in the world that wants it :)
Happy New Year. Keep rocking that mullet.
That calling of the trifecta was damn impressive guys.
I remember it vividly. I was maybe 8 and was taking a cruise ship in the southern region of Chile with my family. One afternoon this movie was suddenly broadcast(in subtitles) across all TVs on the ship and I loved every minute of it. Why they decided to air this movie, unedited boobs and all, on a ship full of families on a calm afternoon I will never know but the prepubescent boy in me was forever grateful.
That's hilarious. Whoever aired the movie should get a medal.
Excellent work as usual boys.
Thanks! 🙏
Loved this movie when it came out, watched it with my dad and brothers at 11 years old! We started calling our BMX bikes horses lol notice the pilot AWOL is the same dude from ACTION USA
Just awesome! Thanks for the content 👍
Thanks!
it's mullet time. It's Thursday but new episode isn't out yet so time to watch some classics and leave a comment.n
The Boz was a legend. I remember the hype around him when he joined the Seahawks. Like he was going to completely change the game of football because he was so good. But instead he's more famous for being one the biggest busts ever.
Brian Bosworth has actually done a good amount of movies since Stone Cold though the majority of them have been straight to VHS/DVD.
Straight to video movies are mother's milk to us.
@@JasonBrant lol, enjoy
I was loving this, especially the amount of times this made you guy laugh and be amazed...but as soon as Bosworth said "Take a bow" and smashed the dude's head into the counter, I immediately went to go find a copy of this movie. The Joker stole Bosworth's joke!
I didn't even think of that! Totally stolen from Stone Cold, which is hilarious. You'll love this movie.
That movie actually looks awesome cause the action looked legitimately awesome and then the rest was funny.
It is. We loved it
Awesome! Cheers guys. ✌️
can't believe I missed this movie. I want to see this now. Somehow it started just over the top. and still somehow progressed to get even more over the top, but gradually. kind of well paced.
You'll love it.
Fun fact: The guy he fights at 3:42 is a young Kenny Omega... legit Pro Wrestler and co-Founder of AEW.
I wondered if that was him.
Yes this was one of my favorite movies as a kid....
It's great.
I love this movie. I remember seeing it on HBO way way back when it first came out. Just does not disappoint. And it's one of the few movies where the bad guys win. Sure, they all get killed themselves but they %100 succeed in what they set out to do.
I watched this when I was a kid. I didn't know who Brian Bosworth was ,but he was awesome. Lance Henriksen is a legend. Plus the bad guy from Steven Seagal and Paco from Bloodsport.
"If you like 'Stone Cold' you might like my book" - might be the greatest sales pitch ever spoken.
Also, this guy was great in "Hudson Hawk".
Watched it on theatre for the first time back in the day. Laughed so hard I was nearly thrown out. I was so pumped I was working out the following morning at 7AM. It took me years to find and shoot the bad guy's Calico 9 autopistol. The helicoidal mag was so bad it never got past half capacity. But it looked like a space blaster.
