Jason versus Sabotage

There was a time when Arnold Schwarzenegger was king. His movies raked in serious box office . He was idolized by fans. The man could do not wrong. Then he became governor, got old, and has largely been dismissed by modern audiences upon his return to the big screen . That's because modern audiences are morons.

End the week with a bang, the Sabotage red-band trailer

The more I witness of Arnold Schwarzenegger's upcoming action flick Sabotage, the more I'm primed to see it. This red-band trailer pretty much sealed the deal -- I'm on for March 28. For one, this is a return to the heyday of Schwarzenegger movies, with foul language and violent action, but it puts the Austrian Oak among a talented ensemble cast that should introduce him to a modern audience.

Arnie's Sabotage poster leaves no loose ends

This has been a field day for action fans. First the teaser trailer for The Expendables 3 lands (check it out over on our Facebook page ) then the poster for Arnold Schwarzenegger's latest, Sabotage, blasts its way online. Take a gander: Pretty bad ass. And that's a stellar supporting lineup Arnold's got there: Olivia Williams , Sam Worthington , Terence Howard , Joe Manganiello , and Josh Holloway . Plus a boat load of guns. Guns, guns, guns. Toss in a screenplay by Skip Woods and David Ayer and put Ayer, who wrote and directed End of Watch , in the director's chair, and I think we might have a winner come April 11. What's it about? Read on: Members of an elite DEA task force find themselves being taken down one by one after they rob a drug cartel safe house.

Jason and Shawn review: Sinners and Saints and Texas Killing Fields

Sinners and Saints Jason: This is a great action movie. A loving throwback to the hardcore, R-rated buddy cops movies of the late 80s and early 90s. Reckless cop with nothing to lose partnered with the stable family guy. Profanity and graphic violence ensues. Sold! We've got a great gunfight and a dozen or so F-bombs in the first five minutes. Then a number of stellar, old-school shoot outs, explosions and chases thrown in throughout. No shaky cam, just straight up action from people who knew what they were trying to achieve. Don't remake Lethal Weapon. Put Sinners and Saints in 3,100 theatres and make three sequels. I'd love to see Riley and Ganz kicking ass and taking names in a series of movies. Good! Shawn: I'm reminded vaguely of a movie here. Straight-arrowed, black cop, assigned a crazy, nothing-to-live for, on-the-edge, ex-special forces partner. Sound familiar? Lethal Weapon maybe? Some Bad Boys and Boondock Saints mixed in. And voila. Awesomest movie i...

Sinners and Saints and Texas Killing Fields

Action speaks louder than words in The Basement this week as the boys take a break from horror and dive head first into the realm of the action/thriller. Excited? We thought as much. First up, The Basement Dwellers take a trip into the gritty New Orleans underbelly with Sinners and Saints. Martial artist turned actor Johnny Strong (appropriate last name for an action hero) stars as a troubled cop who sets out to solve a series of murders only to stumble onto something much bigger. Sound like a bunch of 1980s action films? Sure. Do we care as long as shit blows up? No. What do Jason and Shawn make of this little seen action flick? Stick with us! And hang tough for the second film of the episode: Texas Killing Fields. The thriller holds a special place in The Basement Dwellers' hearts as its the first film they were invited to a screening of. Sure, they weren't able to attend, but it's the thought that counts. The film stars Hollywood middle weights Sam Worthington, Jef...

Update: new release date for Texas Killing Fields

A few weeks back we told you about the upcoming thriller Texas Killing Fields. The film, directed by Ami Canaan Mann, daughter of acclaimed director Michael Mann, follows a small-town homicide detective (Worthington) and his partner, a transplanted cop from New York (Morgan), as they track a sadistic serial killer dumping mutilated bodies in a nearby marsh called The Killing Fields. Well, we've received information that the film's release date has changed. Turns out Texas Killing Fields will now open in select theatres on Oct. 14. Judging from the trailer below, this looks like it could be worth the watch. As we've said before, Jeffrey Dean Morgan usually adds class to the movies he's in. Shawn and I will certainly give this one a watch, and share our thoughts with you ASAP.

Take a trip through the Texas Killing Fields

One actor who just doesn't get enough love is Jeffrey Dean Morgan. The man's so at risk of become just another That Guy actor and it just isn't fair. He's starred in a handful of fun, little-seen films like Dead and Breakfast and The Losers and has displayed such charisma. Yet he's not had his big break. But starring in Texas Killing Fields alongside Sam Worthington and Chloe Grace Moretz could help Morgan get a legitimate crack at stardom. The film, directed by Ami Canaan Mann, daughter of acclaimed director Michael Mann, follows a small-town homicide detective (Worthington) and his partner, a transplanted cop from New York (Morgan), as they track a sadistic serial killer dumping mutilated bodies in a nearby marsh called The Killing Fields. Serial killer movies can be hit and miss. But the trailer below looks pretty intense. And if Ami Canaan has as much talent as her dad, we could be in for a real treat. Anchor Bay loves it's genre pictures, but my fear ...
