It's Rambo Day, which means it's a day we celebrate all things Rambo. And no, we didn't make that up. It's a real thing, and part of the lead in to Rambo: Last Blood coming out on Friday. We were going to celebrate by doing a Top 5 favourite Rambo kills, but the fine folks at Arrow in the Head already did something like that, so I figured why not share our favourite Rambo quotes. I like quotes. Quotes are good. Anyway, here we go with our Top 5, in no particular order: 5) "They drew first blood." - John Rambo, First Blood (1982) Because it's always cool when the hero references the title of the movie in a quote. 4) "Live for nothing, or die for something. Your call." - John Rambo, Rambo (2008) Because it's 100-per-cent truth, and is the exclamation mark on a great monologue by Stallone. 3) "I could have killed 'em all. I could kill you. In town, you're the law. Out here, it's me. Don't push it, or I'l...

It's almost impossible not to think of this film when thinking about the 80s. With one movie, Sylvester Stallone and director George P. Cosmatos tapped into a post- Vietnam war consciousness,  Cold War fears of Russia and gave birth to the cinematic one-man army. Impressive, no? But how does it stand up almost 30 years later? Stick with me. John Rambo is released from prison by the government for a top-secret covert mission in the last place on Earth he'd want to return -- the jungles of Vietnam .

First Blood Shawn : You need to see it because it began the legacy of ALL these Chuck Norris -Arnold-save-the- Vietnam - POW - movies . Sly is the action man that started it all. Can I say more? Yes, but don't DIE before YOU see it. The movie covered so many different era events too. Vietnam vets, police brutality, prejudice, stereotyping and discrimination. And shit blows up. Awesome. Good. Jason: I can't remember the last time I watched First Blood. It was certainly back in the 90s, maybe even the 80s. Shame. I know. Some 80s action guy I turned out to be. First off, aside from the hair, fashion and fact that Stallone doesn't look like he was chipped out of rock, this movie holds up well. That's because it's a simple story told in a straight-forward manner. There's no special effects, just cool shit done in-camera. And the action is pretty straight ahead. I forgot how good Sly is in this movie. People forget that he was a really great...

Back by popular demand is a third volume of We Came from the Basement's ever popular Movies You Need to See Before Your Die! Commence choral performance of Beethoven's Ode to Joy -- Die Hard version! Shawn kicks things off with a movie no self-respecting action fan hasn't seen at least once. That's right, First Blood ! You know the story, a Vietnam Veteran uses his combat skills against the lawman of a small town when he arrests and abuses him. Classic, and made just two hours away from Basement Headquarters by motorcar. Then Jason and a horde of possessed townsfolk are comin' to kill yah, comin' to kill yah with Dead and Breakfast . This 2004 musical/horror/comedy deals with a night at a local bed and breakfast that turns into a bloody supernatural fight to the death. And because you can't tame awesome, the Basement Boys take a break from reviewing movies to chat with director Steven C. Miller about his recent slasher flick Silent Night and hi...
