Joining me this week we have a trifecta of talent that is somewhat unbelievable. Here to discuss an underappreciated movie that flew under a lot of peoples radar we have a man who is used to having people yell "KILL EM ALL!" at him as part of his daily life, it's Casper Van Dien. We have boxer turned actor and director Louis Mandylor and we have returning guest, actor turned director Brandon Slagle.We are all gathered together to discuss a 10 day torture session they all experienced which was edited together into a movie titled 'Battle for Saipan'. I loved every moment of talking to these guys and getting to speak with Casper and Louis was a huge moment for both the show and myself personally. So sit back, relax and enjoy some crazy stories, great memories, the comradery and the laughter of todays episode. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
Today we sit down and spend a couple hours talking with Peter Shinkoda. Most recently starring opposite Scott Adkins in Prisoner of War, soon to be sharing the screen with Bob Odenkirk in Normal.

You can also see him as Ben Takeda on Salvage Marines but we don't really talk about that one. We talk Prisoner of War, being directed by Louis.

This week on Action Addicts, we’re diving head-first into one of the wildest, most gloriously unhinged entries in the Cannon Films canon: American Ninja 2: The Confrontation. Michael Dudikoff and Steve James return as Armstrong and Jackson, the coolest duo to ever punch their way through an island full of ninjas. We’re talking shadowy crime lords, genetically engineered super-ninjas, beach-bar brawls, shirtless heroics, and that unmistakable Cannon energy that feels like action movie comfort food.We unpack the film’s over-the-top plot, the unmatched chemistry between Dudikoff and James, the escalation from straightforward martial arts to full-on comic-book sci-fi madness, and why this sequel has become a cult favourite for fans who want their action bold, bonkers, and blissfully sincere. Expect talk of weapon-clashing set-pieces, 80s charm, and the simple joy of watching Jackson wipe the floor with entire rooms of bad guys.We also go incredibly off topic so bare with us...Action Addicts Links: https://linktr.ee/actionaddicts Hosted on Acast.
