This week's episode is dedicated to the Fighting Spirit Film Festival, which has had some serious challenges this year thanks to COVID. Unfortunately this will be the first time in 5 years that I will have missed the event but look forward to next year.
So, in this episode, Mike Rich and Tom take a look at JIU JITSU, a mash up of Predator and Mortal Kombat with a cast worthy of such a film. We follow that with DEATH FIGHTER, starring Matt Mullins, Don Wilson and Cynthia Rothrock.
Things get a little challenging after this, as we move on to GUARDIAN, an Indonesian film which follows a very familiar template and contains some very shoddy camera-work! We then move onto the passion/vanity project which is FIGHT OF FURY - this film has to be seen to be believed! Our final feature is ENTER THE FIRE, which we promise, gets better after the initial fight scene!!
To cleanse the palate, our Short Shot is A KUNG FU VAMPIRE STORY from the always excellent MartialClub - click the link to watch the whole 10 minute short!
We finish off the episode with our DTV Throwback, which is the Albert Pyun classic, NEMESIS, starring Olivier Gruner!

We must give a shout-out to @mattybudrewicz for giving us the heads up about our DTV Throwback, THE ASSAULT, which is an action packed siege movie from Jim Wynorski, the director of a previous Throwback, Storm Trooper. Unfortunately I couldn't find a trailer for this one, but the film itself is available on Amazon Prime.

*Audio is fixed!
 
This week Mike, Rich and Steve look at three new releases. First up is the Norwegian action thriller steeped in Norse mythology, MORTAL, directed by Troll Hunter's André Øvredal. Following this we have the indie time travel/body horror movie, SHIFTER, and our third feature is 2099: THE SOLDIER PROTOCOL which surprisingly co-stars David Arquette!

Editor's note - like the previous episode this week the audio quality is a bit inconsistent, but it should improve very soon!

This is followed by AMERICAN FIGHTER, which may defy your assumptions based on that title!
