DTVC Extra 7, The Kickboxer Franchise: Kickboxers 3, 4, and 5

"DTVC Extra" are shorter solo episodes that I'll be posting on some of the weeks we don't have episodes of the main podcast. In this episode we continue our series looking at the Kickboxer films with "Kickboxer 3: The Art of War," "Kickboxer 4: The Aggressor," and "Redemption: Kickboxer 5." With part 3, we look at ways in which this was sauteed in wrong sauce, the low-rent Joe Izuzu for a baddie, and Sasha Mitchell's too sweet pants in the final scene. Then with part 4, I talk about Albert Pyun's return to the series, and his darker take on Kickboxer with Sasha Mitchell. What if he had had a chance to make his Kickboxer sequels he wasn't able to make? Finally, in part 5, we discuss Dacascos's martial arts, and James Ryan's baddie, plus speculate on why nothing further was done with Kickboxer for 20 years after this one. Also throughout the episode, we look at IMDb lists of what aired on WSBK TV 38 in Boston during the months of April, June, and July of 2001.
