15 - Fatal Deviation (1998)

from Dead Format

Tim and Ben are back and have reached the logical end point crap auterism, Ireland's first kung-fu crime thriller "Fatal Deviation". We talk about movie fighting, how this feels legitimately dangerous to watch in places, jam to the rock group Boy Zone, speculate as to what Irish karate might look like and get into all the things you take for granted when you watch a movie that is made by professionals. Also discussed: Hundreds of Beavers, C'était un rendez-vous, Speed Racer and somehow Marathon vs ARC Raiders. All that plus Tim reviews Akira Yamaoka live in concert! We will be back next week with a much better movie as we talk Kelly Reichardt's thorny, ecoterrorism procedural "Night Moves" from 2014 (which stars Dakota, not Elle Fanning). Thanks as always to Disco for the show art and to Eric for the theme music. Letterboxed: DeadFormatPod BlueSky: DeadFormatPod
