It’s all about the splendor of  80’s action movie violence and maliciousness of their protagonists.  This one is a classic and every good podcast out there has done their review (SEE archives of:  The Greatest Movie Ever, and Fast Karate For the Gentlemen)

The favorite quote in the option of Zack is:  “De were going to kill me so I killed dem.”  Which I think Nikil and the boys at N+1 could certainly find relevant to the American hyper-Capitalist psyche of the 1980’s.    email:  Futilepodcast@gmail.com
