Episode 173: Half Past Dead 2

from Exploding Helicopter Hosted by Exploding Helicopter

“They don’t call me the Alaskan pipeline for nothing.” How bad does a film have to be that Steven Seagal won’t star in it? We go looking for the answer in HALF PAST DEAD 2 (2007), the Seagal-free follow up to the Buddhist botherer’s prison escape movie. We joined by Nick Rehak to discuss which minor cast member from the original film has been promoted to leading man status, and the other strained efforts at series continuity. We also examine an exploding helicopter scene that is troublingly familiar. Episode 173.
