As the era of athlete-turned-action star raged on with the likes of Schwarzenegger, Stallone, Lundgren, and Van Damme all committed to their respective franchises and filmmakers, one lone American football star dared to turn the spotlight from international talent to domestic. Unfortunately, his efforts resulted in little except the efforts of your hosts trying to piece together its successes and downfalls. So bleach your mullets and cut off your t-shirts as Krishiv and Erich are joined this week by esteemed Toronto film critic and writer, Adam Nayman, to discuss the Craig R. Baxley directed, Brian Bosworth vehicle that is Stone Cold (1991). From its renegade cop protagonist to the always electric Lance Henrikson, Stone Cold may not be the best or most memorable action thriller of the 90s, but it certainly has a case for one of the most interesting anomalies in the genre.
