What do you get when you combine Star Wars and Seven Samurai on a 2 million dollar budget in 1980? Spaceship Boobs! Well , spaceship boobs and......Battle Beyond The Stars!!! Join Brock and Dan as they discuss this tale of John Boy Walton and the A-Team's Hannibal Smith, as they gather a diverse team of warriors from across the stars to defend the peace loving, candy ass planet of Akir from Sador, the ruler of the Malmori Empire, and his planet destroying Stellar Converter! (That sounds a little too familiar....) Also, James Cameron not directing and Bill Paxton as a carpenter. I love it when a plan comes together!

Wrong Is Right (1982)

In today's review, I discover the lengths that the media will go to to get a good story, as I attempt a #positive review of the 1982 prophetic political satire Wrong Is Right #SeanConnery #RobertConrad #GeorgeGrizzard #KatharineRoss #GDSpradlin #JohnSaxon

The trick to a good, long-lasting satire is understanding that the problems often parodied don’t get fixed soon enough: are your elected officials letting you down? Count to a couple of years, and they will still be doing it again. Is the media stoking the flames of conflict, political or otherwise? Funny how the same criticisms were levied years ago. In 1982, a film showed the world as it is and…

Remembering John Saxon, born August 5, 1936 and passed away July 25, 2020.

John Saxon (born Carmine Orrico) was an American actor who worked on more than 200 projects during a span of 60 years. He was known for his work in Westerns and horror movies, often playing police officers and detectives.

Born and raised in Brooklyn, New York, he studied acting with Stella Adler before beginning his career as a contract actor for Universal Pictures, playing in such movies as Rock, Pretty Baby (1956) and Portrait in Black (1961), which earned him a reputation as a teen idol and won him a Golden Globe Award for New Star of the Year – Actor. During the 1970's and 1980's, he established himself as a character actor, frequently portraying law enforcement officials in horror movies such as Black Christmas (1974), Dario Argento's Tenebrae (1982), and A Nightmare on Elm Street (1984).

In addition to his roles in horror movies, he co-starred with Bruce Lee in the martial arts movie Enter the Dragon (1973), and had supporting roles in the westerns The Appaloosa (1966; for which he was nominated for a Golden Globe for Best Supporting Actor – Motion Picture), Death of a Gunfighter (1969) and Joe Kidd (1972), as well as the made-for-television thriller Raid on Entebbe (1977). In the 1990's, Saxon occasionally appeared in movies, with small roles in Wes Craven's New Nightmare (1994) and From Dusk till Dawn (1996).

In 1974 he played police Lieutenant Fuller in the Canadian production of Black Christmas; from 1974–76, he appeared in The Six Million Dollar Man, first as Major Frederick Sloan and then as Nedlick. This role also extended into The Bionic Woman. The actor's likeness was later used for the Kenner action-figure doll called 'Maskatron' which was based on the series.

He starred as Dylan Hunt in the 1974 Gene Roddenberry TV pilot Planet Earth, replacing Alex Cord from Genesis II. A 20th Century scientist unfrozen in the post-nuclear world of 2133, he leads a team of explorers and encounters a matriarchal society. Although ABC declined the series, Saxon played a nearly identical character in the 1975 TV movie Strange New World.

He died of pneumonia.

#RIPJohnSaxon From 2014. Glad he didn’t taken offense to me being an #MST3k fan, thanks to his film “Mitchell”! He was kind enough to sign my DVDs. FYI, I brought the Ted bear to the @hollywoodshow1 because actor Sam Jones was there, too! #johnsaxon #enterthedragon #anightmareonelmstreet #nightmareonelmstreet #blackchristmas #fromdusktilldawn #battlebeyondthestars #mysterysciencetheater3000 @mst3k (at The Westin Los Angeles Airport) https://www.instagram.com/p/CDH9gdgDIr5/?igshid=13nq7lsaz4lye

Just saw the news about the passing of one of my favorite actors John Saxon. Had the chance to meet and talk with him on a few occasions throughout the years and he and his wife couldn't have been nicer and more willing to answer my nerdy questions. One of the main characters in my cartoon is actually modeled after John. Rest in peace to the icon John Saxon. #johnsaxon #ripjohnsaxon (at Oakland, California) https://www.instagram.com/p/CDF9-gDD5GK/?igshid=1eu2y1g6bw2dc

Hollywood and Elm Part 6 - Wes Craven's New Nightmare (1994)

In today's review, I find dreams and nightmares lurk beyond the cinema screen. As I attempt a #positive review of Wes Craven's New Nightmare #HeatherLangenkamp #RobertEnglund #MikoHughes #JohnSaxon #TracyMiddendorf #DavidNewsom #FranBennett #WesCraven

With the act of creation, you’re letting yourself be exposed. Sometimes this can lead to para-social relationships, but in some cases, this can lead to tragedy as those who cannot discern between fiction and reality take matters into their own hands. In 1994, Heather herself had the veil broken, having to face the mythical killer that got the best of her, as the lines between fiction and reality…
