Please welcome back Dan Grima to the show for a crossover event where both of ours shows are putting out episodes this week in a shared continuity! For me it's 2012's Abraham Lincoln Vampire Hunter and for the Blindspots show its 2012's Lincoln. Our movie was directed Timur Bekmambetov and stars Benjamin Walker, Dominic Cooper, Anthony Mackie and Mary Elizabeth Winstead in an alternate history action/horror hybrid that is based on the book of the same name by Seth Grahame-Smith Dan's Twitter: <a href="https://twitter.com/DanGrima92" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@DanGrima92</a>BlindSpots Twitter: <a href="https://twitter.com/BlindSpots_Pod" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@BlindSpots_Pod</a> Action Addicts Links:&nbsp;<a href="https://linktr.ee/actionaddicts" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://linktr.ee/actionaddicts</a>

Ep74 - Abraham Lincoln Vampire Hunter (2012) with Dan Grima

Ep73 - Willy's Wonderland (2021) with Andy Gorham

Today we are talking about the 2016's Train to Busan, an international sensation that swept across the world not unlike the zombie plague afflicting the characters in this movie. Joining us we have Max Deering to discuss horror, capitalism and defeating the evils of the day with the power of love and friendship... or not.

Ep72 - Train to Busan (2016) with Max Deering

Welcome back Dan Grima to the show! Today we are talking about the 2013 movie Snowpiercer. Directed by Bong Joon Ho and starring Chris Evans. It's the end of the world and only those who made it on to a super advanced high tech train managed to survive the deep freeze. As you might imagine, things escalated rather poorly from there.

Join me today as myself and returning guest Dan Grima of the Blindspots podcast chat about a recent ish Indian cinema release with Director Nikhil Nagesh Bhat's Kill. Where During a train trip to New Delhi, a pair of commandos face an army of invading bandits. It's bloody, gory and just a bit depressing. Dan and I have a great chat about how we interpreted the themes and subtext of this movie, we may have forgotten to get into the action a little bit but we do also talk about podcasting and movies in general so please forgive us while we try to find our way back to our points one rant at a time.

The home of The Action Addicts Podcast! Join me your host Scott Wiley as we trundle and ramble our way through this exciting new venture as I put on my thinking cap and start highlighting action films of the ages! This genre is near and dear to my heart and I will be bringing on many guests to wax lyrical about our favourite films, underappreciated gems and sometimes just to geek out and go completely off topic!
