Albert Pyun Appreciation Month - ”Brain Smasher”

We here at Cinema Degeneration thought it was time for another Appreciation Month topic!  We bring to you a celebration of the life and career of the late great filmmaker Mr. Albert Pyun.  Pyun was a maverick director with over 50 directing credits to his resume before he passed away unfortunately in late 2022. Often operating well outside the studio system Pyun delivered films the only way he knew how...his way.  We are continuing the adventures and our 7th episode with a rare comedy in Pyun's filmography with the 1993 action/comedy/romance thriller "BRAIN SMASHER: A LOVE STORY", starring Andrew 'Dice' Clay, Teri Hatcher, Deborah Van Valkenburgh, Tim Thomerson, Brion James and Yuji Okumoto. This Vidmark era thriller is a tale about a supermodel who joins forces with a bouncer to wage battle with a bunch of ninjas for possession over a powerful Red Lotus flower and eventually find love along the way. Join our hosts Gary Hill and Cameron Scott as they discuss this unique chapter of Pyun's epic film history that proves that "dice-light' can actually work.    Join us for an intense celebration of the expansive Pyuniverse!   "We are NOT ninjas!"
