Matty P Radio Presents: Marks v. Pros & Saturday Morning Cereal
Meanwhile on Saturday Morning Cereal...Take some time this week to remember your original happy hour: Saturday mornings as a kid, waking up at dawn, jumping on the couch with a bowl of chocolate cereal, turning on the ‘toons, tuning out the outside world, and working your way into a sugar hangover before noon. This week, we try to figure out what it takes to film the longest single take fight scene in movie history. Why do we care? Because we're talking about Beta Test (Avail now on Amazon), a movie which currently holds the record for the longest single take fight scene in movie history! That's no small feat, so we celebrate that and other all time greatest movie fist-a-cuffs with guests who have lived through a few of those epic movie fights, including Yuji Okumoto (Karate Kid Part II's "Chozen", Better Off Dead, Beta Test) & Linden Ashby (Mortal Kombat's "Johnny Cage", Wyatt Earp, MTV's Teen Wolf, Beta Test) and writer and director Nicholas Gyeney (Beta Test, The Penitent Man) to tell us how it all went down. And how well do you remember that Chozen vs. Daniel-san final battle in Karate Kid, Part II? Because we're sweeping the leg of a 30 year old memory as we try to walk you through that epic fight plus a few more walks down the old movie fight lane. Thank you free filtered HBO!

On this episode, That Guy Named John chats with Nicholas Gyeney, the writer, director, and producer of the new action thriller "Beta Test"! This movie was shot on location here in Seattle and stars Manu Bennett, Linden Ashby and Larenz Tate.
Linden called into Variety Radio Online to talk to Brancey about his upcoming movie Beta Test. From producer/writer/director Nicholas Gyeney, and produced by Mirror Images LTD, comes BETA TEST a sci-fi action thriller that’s “a cross between the intimate suspense of Die Hard and the 21st century chaos of Gamer”. The film’s storyline revolves around Max Troy (Tate, House of Lies, Rush), a Seattle-based video game champion and game tester who is about to test the latest game sensation from global video game juggernaut, Sentinel. As Max begins his procedural dissection of the game, he begins to realize this new game is not like any other. As Max completes new tasks, events in the real world begin to mirror them. Soon, Max uncovers a deep-rooted conspiracy from within the walls of Sentinel, which leads him to discover that the game’s protagonist, Orson Creed (Bennett, Arrow, The Hobbit), is a real man, in the real world. If Max can somehow join forces with Creed, together they may have a chance at unraveling this conspiracy before the tasks in the game escalate and overwhelm their city. Yuji Okumoto (Karate Kid Part II, Inception, The Game), and Linden Ashby (Mortal Kombat, Teen Wolf, Wyatt Earp) also star. BETA TEST will be released in approximately 15 US theaters July 22nd.
