I have Evil Dead lined up for a Halloween Borrowing Blockbusters, but I wanted to do another episode before then. The question is... on what? Brucesploitation is on my radar, but there's a whole documentary on that due out in a few months, and it seems silly to pre-empt it. Here are four others I'm often asked about, so which (distinctly butch, now I think about it) subgenre should it be?

I'm also doing a Silver Linings review on Deathstalker 2. I wanted to mark the passing of Roger Corman somehow. If it goes down well I'll do more Silver Linings. Because they're short, focused on one movie, and more about opinion than research, it doesn't take weeks to make them. The channel M.O. will always be longer deep dives, though.

Rob, what is best in life?

Conan madness, it has to be the way. (And separately, the Samurai Cop video was a blast.)
