Cult Of Muscle!!!!!!!!

Joining our friends at Hammicus, The Feminine Critique, The Trashy Trio, Married With Clickers, Silva and Gold, and The Gentleman's Guide to Midnite Cinema, we are kicking off the Sleazy Summer!  For two straight episodes we've been assigned lottery-picked movies of the trashiest, sleaziest order.  This week we're joined by the mad man Mattsuzaka from Chuck Norris Ate My Baby to review Cross Country and Blood Rage!  And yeah, it gets a bit greasy!

Ok so this is one seriously absurd episode.  You want a review of a movie where Patrick Swayze plays a country boy in Chicago going up against two mobsters played by Adam Baldwin and Ben Stiller?  How about a survival/misfits on a mission/urban crime/feel good/80's movie directed by Starsky?  Well you got it!  This week we cover Next of Kin and Band of the Hand!
