O.K. Video

Just in time for the same month as the Stampede, O.K. Video is here to celebrate the biggest, burliest steampunk western of the 90s, Wild Wild West . Is it a high concept action movie though? Ryan has eight reasons as to why it qualifies. Somehow we also get to talking about the worst films we've discussed on the podcast. Thanks for joining us.

The One Hundredth Episode of O.K. Video is... Air Force One ! This easily pitch-able premise is the centrepiece of our look at High Concept Action Films of the 90s.

In the near-future, 1994, the military will reanimate their best, deceased soldiers and put them into service again as human drones. Such is the premise of Universal Soldier , starring Jean Claude Van Damme as Luc and Dolph Lundgren as Andrew, two soldiers who have unresolved beef with each other from the night of their deaths in 1969.  Thanks for joining O.K.

Calgary has been RAINY this summer, so what better time to look at Hard Rain , the Christian Slater action flop from 1998?
