Originally from our Patreon: Albert Pyun (1953 – 2022) was the consummate independent genre filmmaker -- his audacious film output in the 1980s and 1990s amassed a string of brain-blending films that mixed sci-fi, fantasy, action, horror, comedy, Eastern and Western cinema, to create something wholly unique, something maybe best described using the title of one of his own films - Radioactive Dreams. 1982's THE SWORD AND THE SORCERER, Van Damme's CYBORG, NEMESIS, DOLLMAN, even the original and much-maligned CAPTAIN AMERICA movie. Though he never achieved mainstream success, Pyuns films have haunted the minds of Steve and Josh and so many others - including our guest for the episode, BenDavid Grabinski (co-creator "Scott Pilgrim Takes Off"). Join us as we explore the Pyuniverse of cyborgs, kickboxing, muscle women, post-apocalyptic madness, and much more.
