I have proudly never seen a Steven Segal movie.
The soundtrack music on Hard To Kill is worth the price of admission alone.

Watching Hard To Kill with Steven Segal for the first time. So hilariously bad it's good.
Haha, I dug those when they were new. Above the law was another off the top of my head.

Both good. My favourites were Marked for Death and especially Out For Justice. Exit Wounds was probably his last real film, the last few I saw had him filmed just in long shot and with other people dubbing his lines and doing the close up fighting, like Lugosi in Plan 9.
which was the one where the villains were Jamaican? Marked for Death?
That's it.

I'm pretty sure I saw each of the first 3 in theater. I get them mixed up though.

Double header tonight.

Watched The Thirty Nine Steps, the 1959 version which I don't think I've seen before. It looked absolutely brilliant but the ending was a bit tame without the Big Ben climax.

Then it was The Green Inferno which I rather enjoyed despite the bad reviews and low score on IMDB.

I've never heard of a remake. Who's in it?

Kenneth More. I still maintain the 1978 Robert Powell version is the best.

Watching _______ with Steven Segal. So hilariously bad.
Under Siege was legit good.
I saw Under Siege on a hotel television in the city of Chihuahua, Mexico, in 1994. I seem to recall I enjoyed it, but probably mostly because it was the only television I had watched in a couple months aside from Spanish language coverage of the ‘94 World Cup. Took me years to realize Erika Eleniak was the young blond girl in E.T., Elliott’s classmate that he had a crush on. Can’t remember watching any other Seagal movies.

If you ever feel the urge, watch the 1978 version with Robert Powell. Flows brilliantly, great scenery and Powell is excellent. Also has British horror veteran David Warner as the baddie. He was one evil looking motherfucker.

David Warner played Jack the Ripper around the same time in Time After Time, a flick I still love lots and lots.

The second video we ever hired after An American Werewolf In London. Loved it.

I assumed he was dead but on checking he is only 79. He looked about 60 in 1978.
