EP31 – StarCrash on planet TerrorVision In EP31 of the Badasses, Boobs and Body Counts Podcast, your host Mike is joined by Mugumbo aka Lewis Cougill of the Traumatic Cinematic show. Mike and Lewis first explore TerrorVision (1986) and then step into Star Wars territory with StarCrash (1978). Mike and Lewis knock heads over both films as Lewis has a love for TerrorVision and Mike a love for StarCrash. In any case, this was a fun show to record as Lewis is a colorful character to say the least.

The Plot: Day of the Warrior begins when Tiger (Shae Marks) discovers someone has hacked into the L.E.T.H.A.L. (Legion to Ensure Total Harmony and Law) computer database to steal a list of all the Agency’s top undercover agents. Tiger quickly makes her way to Willow Black’s office (Julie Strain) to inform the boss-lady of what just happened.
After Tiger and Black’s meeting, we’re taken elsewhere and introduced to a powerful criminal named “Warrior” (Marcus Bagwell). It seems that Warrior is into all sorts of criminal activities such as stolen diamonds, jewelry, terribly bad looking gold Mayan art pieces and the illegal practices of pirated pornography. Mildly put, he’s an all-around bad guy who is feared by all who meet him. He also dresses like a Native-American Indian wrestler.
Now that the undercover Federal Agents identities are at risk, Tiger and Black hit the road in an attempt to save Cobra (Julie K. Smith), Shark (Darren Wise) and Scorpion (Tammy Parks) before the Warrior gets to them himself. Will the war painted, greased up, steroid induced, Warrior kill the agents? Or will the L.E.T.H.A.L. ladies prevail once again?
The Takeaway: Let me get the bad out of the way so I can close this section of the review on a positive note. Day of the Warrior is a film that covers a lot of ground in a short amount of time. The multiple plot-lines and subtext are difficult to follow since the film jumps from scene to scene so often. This hurts the film on many different levels as the viewer isn’t able to attached themselves to any of the characters and is often times left wondering what just happened and why. As for me, this lead me to lose focus quickly and to look at how much time was left in the film quite frequently (not a good thing).
On the up-side of things, there are plenty of gorgeous women in the film who all get naked or topless at one point or another. In fact, I’d say that Day of the Warrior manages to have the best looking line-up in any Andy Sidaris film in terms of beautiful buxom women. This is quite the achievement considering the line-up Sidaris puts in front of us in his earlier films. Another note-worthy mention are the actors portraying the hit-men. Both Richard Cansino (J.P.) and Cassidy Phillips (Chaz) are hilarious and have excellent chemistry when on-screen together. Well done gentlemen.
Film Facts: Day of the Warrior was written and directed by Andy Sidaris and was produced by Arlene Sidaris. The film was distributed by Malibu Bay Films and was released in 1996. Day of the Warrior put Andy Sidaris back in the directors chair after a 3-year layoff. Sidaris cast former pro-wrestler Marcus Bagwell (aka Buff Bagwell) as the lead villain. Bagwell is best known for his World Championship Wrestling between the years 1991 and 2001, where he was World Tag Team Champion 5 times running. New to the Andy Sidaris line-up was Julie K. Smith. Smith appeared in a few minor roles prior to Day of the Warrior and became a staple of the soft-core porn industry in the late 90s. Shae Marks was Playboy Playmate of the Month for May 1994 (look her up guys, she’s a stunning beauty). Raye Hollitt was a female body builder and is best known for her stint on the TV show American Gladiators 1989 – 1996 (you may know Hollitt by her stage name, ZAP).
You can find out more about Andy Sidaris and his films at the Andy Sidaris Website run by his beautiful wife, Arlene Sidaris. You can also visit my review of Hard Ticket To Hawaii to learn a little more about Andy Sidaris.
Thoughts In My Head: - I really want to work in this Federal office - This is the breast Andy Sidaris film yet - The Warrior has amazing hair - Tiger is super HOT! - The two worthless hit-men are pure gold in my book - Never cast a short male Asian actor next to a 6’1 amazonian Julie Strain - Zebra skin leggings, haha, awesome - This plot is terribly convoluted - The Warrior is a terrible villain - Why is Cobra in the shower with a bikini on - One hour in and no plot devises are paying off yet - Is Kym a man - Yuck, Kym and the Warrior are making love. I can’t tell who the man is - Jordon’s Aussie accent is horrible - You guys didn’t SEE or HEAR that back-hoe coming a mile away - The Warrior is really greasy - 20 minutes left… - Rewinds DVD to see Tiger naked again - This wrestling match is literally ridiculous - This is the longest gun-fight ever - 6 minutes left
Favorite Badass or Badass Moment: The Warrior, his appearance is so ridiculous, its badass Favorite Boobs or Boobs in a Scene: Tiger, wow what a set this woman has! Favorite Death Scene: None, honestly, nothing really stands out
Boob Count: 11 pair Body Count: 11
IMDB Rating: 2.5 / 10 My Rating: 3.0 / 10
Final Thoughts: Day of the Warrior does have its moments, however, it’s slow pace and confusing story may not be worth all the beautiful nude women Andy Sidaris includes throughout the run of the film.
The Plot: Enemy Gold begins in a time of civil unrest and Civil War. Soldiers are told to take a small group of men behind the lines to extract gold from the enemy. The mission ends with all but two of the soldiers dying. These two soldiers succeeded in finding the gold as we see them burying it and marking a tree with a knife before dying themselves.
Next we’re introduced to modern day Federal Agents Chris Cannon (Bruce Penhall), Mark Austin (Mark Barriere) and Becky Midnite (Suzi Simpson). All three are on a scouting mission to bust drug manufacturers deep in the woods. After finding cocaine in a small cabin guarded by thugs, the three successfully bust the operation wide open, or do they? Agent Dickson (Alan Abelew), who shows up shortly after the bust, informs the three that the search was illegal, therefore the bust is invalid. Dickson then dismisses the three telling them they are on inactive duty until further notice.
After this, we learn that Dickson is directly tied to drug dealer Santiago (Rodrigo Obregon). We also meet Santiago’s personal assassin, Jewel Panther (Julie Strain). It’s here that Dickson gives Santiago a device allowing him to keep track of the three inoperative agents (whom are now on vacation camping in the woods). This eventually leads Santiago and his thugs to the gold that the three vacationing agents accidentally stumbled across while in the woods.
The Takeaway: I wasn’t sure what to expect with Enemy Gold prior to watching it as I had never seen it before. While doing a bit of research on the film I learned that it wasn’t directed by Andy Sidaris. Enemy Gold was directed by Christian Drew Sidaris, the son of Andy Sidaris, and second assistant director to most of the Andy Sidaris’ films. With that said, I went into the film with the hope of seeing something new and fresh. What Enemy Gold ends up being is very similar to that of what Andy Sidaris had been directing and producing years before. Removed from the Enemy Gold story is the L.E.T.H.A.L. organization and most of the familiar cast of characters Andy Sidaris worked so hard to build in his films, with the exception of Bruce Penhall and Rodrigo Obregon. The story however is interesting as it ties the Civil War era to modern day and does so through the childhood of the two male leads, Chris Cannon (Penhall) and Mark Austin (Barriere). However, all three leads (including Simpson) are up to the same old tricks that Sidaris laid down years earlier, thus making Enemy Gold feel very much like an Andy Sidaris directed film. In fact, the film is so similar in context to that of an Andy Sidaris film, that you’d likely not know there was a director change if you didn’t read film credits. I guess this is a compliment to Christian Drew Sidaris as Enemy Gold is rather fun to sit through despite it retreading earlier, familiar grounds.
Film Facts: Enemy Gold was written by Wess Rahn and Christian Drew Sidaris. It was directed by Christian Drew Sidaris and produced by Andy and Arlene Sidaris. Enemy Gold was released in 1993. The ladies of interest appearing in Enemy Gold are both B-Movie Queen Julie Strain as Jewel Panther and former Playboy Playmate and actress Suzi Simpson as Becky Midnite. Prior to appearing in Enemy Gold , Simpson appeared in Playboy magazine for the month of January, 1992. She also appeared in several related Playboy videos afterwards. Beyond Enemy Gold , Simpsons credits are limited to 3 other productions, the TV series Eden (1993), The Last Road (1997) and Rock Star (2001).
Thoughts In My Head: - Ouch, the fight choreography in this film hurts to watch - Hey, the 90′s called and they want their mullets back - None of these Federal Agents ever show their credentials - Oh yeah, Santiago is a ladies man, nail those two in the shower - With this music, I feels as though I’m watching porn - Jewel is over-acting her toughness - A nice cold shower means hard nipples - These agents celebrate kills as though playing a video game - Dickson’s a real cock sucker - Meow, cat-fight! - Santiago and Dickson need to get a room, or just kill each other
Favorite Badass or Badass Moment: Suzi Simpson as Becky Midnite, her name alone says it all Favorite Boobs or Boobs in a Scene: Suzi Simpson as Becky Midnite, her boobs are perfect Favorite Death Scene: Mullet man, he goes boom with an exploding arrow to the chest
Boob Count: 10 pair Body Count: 9
IMDB Rating: 3.9 / 10 My Rating: 4.5 / 10
Final Thoughts: Although the story of Enemy Gold is slightly different than that of the Andy Sidaris films before it, it feels very much like an Andy Sidaris film. If Christian Drew Sidaris intended on breaking away from the Andy Sidaris look and feel, then Enemy Gold fails. If however he intended it to be an extension of his fathers work, then he’s succeeded on all levels.
