Hosts Josh and Jamie and special guest Brandon Lim (of Blackbelt Cinema) reach the tail-end of their month-long exploration of the Muscles from Brussels himself Jean-Claude Van Damme JEANUARY by discussing the end of his theatrical career where he used every bit of clout he had left to continue doing insane style experimentations in Hollywood products with Hong Kong filmmakers in Ringo Lam's MAXIMUM RISK (1996) and Tsui Hark's KNOCK OFF (1998). Next week's episode is a patron-exclusive bonus episode and a JEANUARY encore on his DTV era: UNIVERSAL SOLIDER: REGENERATION (2009) + UNIVERSAL SOLIDER: DAY OF RECKONING (2012), you can get access to that episode (and all past + future bonus episodes) by subscribing to our $5 tier on patreon: www.patreon.com/sleazoidspodcast

Welcome fellow SLEAZOIDS!!! Come along as hosts Josh Lewis and Jamie Miller (and, occasionally, guests) go down the rabbit hole of 20th century genre fare from the most influential canon classics to the the trashiest exploitation films we can get our hands on. Each week is a double feature—grindhouse style—where we discuss two films loosely related by subject, genre, actor, filmmaker or franchise and at the end of each episode, along with our HONORARY SLEAZOIDS (click on over to our patreon to become one), we decide on ratings and rankings for each film that's covered. Join us as together we work to uncover the best genre films of 20th century.
