The next movie pick comes courtesy of Chris, who's known for his love of high-energy, action-packed flicks. Following on from his previous picks, Chris has chosen Universal Soldier (1992)—a film that perfectly captures that early '90s blend of sci-fi and adrenaline-fueled spectacle.Universal Soldier is a 1992 science fiction action film directed by Roland Emmerich in his Hollywood debut. The movie stars Jean-Claude Van Damme and Dolph Lundgren, two iconic action stars of the early 1990s. Produced on a mid-range budget, the film combined practical effects with emerging visual techniques, helping to establish Emmerich's reputation for large-scale action spectacles.Filmed primarily in California, Universal Soldier features intense fight choreography and explosive set pieces that defined ‘90s action cinema. Despite mixed critical reviews at release, the film became a cult favorite and launched a successful franchise with multiple sequels. Its production marked an important milestone for both the director and its lead actors, highlighting the era's appetite for high-energy, science fiction-inspired action movies.If you enjoy the show we have a Patreon, so become a supporter.⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.patreon.com/thevhsstrikesback⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠NordVPN: ⁠https://go.nordvpn.net/aff_c?offer_id=15&aff_id=86289&url_id=902⁠ NordPass: ⁠https://go.nordpass.io/aff_c?offer_id=488&aff_id=86289&url_id=9356⁠ Trailer Guy Plot SummaryTwo unstoppable forces.

Brace yourself for explosive action, high-octane thrills, and a battle that blurs the line between human and weapon. Get ready—because this summer, the war for control just got personal.Fun FactsUniversal Soldier marked the Hollywood directing debut of Roland Emmerich, who previously worked on German films before breaking into the U.S. market.Released by TriStar Pictures, Universal Soldier received mixed reviews upon release but grew into a cult favorite among action fans.The production had a budget of approximately $22–23 million, blending intense practical stunts with early computer-generated effects.Principal photography was filmed mostly in Southern California, utilizing desert landscapes and urban settings to create its futuristic military vibe.Jean-Claude Van Damme performed many of his own stuntsThe film's popularity led to a franchise with multiple sequels and made-for-TV spin-offs, maintaining the sci-fi action legacy.Roland Emmerich later directed other blockbuster hits such as Independence Day (1996), Godzilla (1998), The Patriot (2000), The Day After Tomorrow (2004), and 10,000 BC (2008).⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠thevhsstrikesback@gmail.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://linktr.ee/vhsstrikesback⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠

Today on the TV/Movie Rewind Podcast, Matt & Todd get reanimated and rearmed with Universal Soldier—Roland Emmerich's 1992 sci-fi action flick that boldly blends high-octane combat with Frankenstein, war crimes, and plenty of roundhouse kicks. Starring: • Jean-Claude Van Damme as “LUC, SAD!” Luc Deveraux, a memory-wiped near-automaton as confused about what he is as he is about who he is. • Dolph Lundgren as “ANDREW, MAD!” Sgt. Andrew Scott, a completely unhinged maniac with a necklace made of ears and probably loves Casualties of War for all the wrong reasons. • Ally Walker as Veronica Roberts, a journalist just trying to do her job and not get murdered by government cyborgs. • Whit Bissell Award winners Jerry Orbach (as Dr. Gregor) and Robert Trebor (as the motel owner), plus genre favorites Ed O'Ross and Leon Rippy. This is great early-90s action: • Government conspiracies • Secret military programs • And a plot that could be described as RoboCop meets First Blood with a dash of Short Circuit if Johnny 5 had been developed by Cyberdyne Systems. • Van Damme kicks people. Lundgren screams about betrayal. There's a diner fight, a farm showdown, and a final battle that ends with a hay baler and some light existential horror.Despite 5 sequels, this one is often forgotten in the larger pool of muscley-action films. For one, Van Damme's box-office draw was waning, and it could be said that this kind of action film a dying genre in 1992, especially with Die Hard a few years earlier establishing a new action archetype.Lastly, at least in America alone, 1992 would be dominated by other classics such as:Disney's Aladdin, Academy Award Winning Unforgiven, Basic Instinct, Reservoir Dogs, A Few Good Men, Francis Ford Coppola's Bram Stoker's Dracula, Batman Returns, and The Bodyguard, to name a few. This one had an up-hill battle for your memory, so we're giving it another look.

Welcome to the most chaotic cinematic therapy session this side of the apocalypse, where four degenerates shout over each other about spin kicks, bad wigs, and jacked robots who don't know what dongs are anymore. This week we're getting emotionally destroyed by a Jean-Claude Van Damme triple feature that roundhouse kicked us so HARD it sent us spiraling into a fever dream so intense it should come with a physician's warning and a complimentary bottle of body oil.

Zo is joined by Katie, our fabulous returning guest from the podcasts Retromade: Your Pop Culture Rewind and One More Round: The Rocky Series Podcast. Together Zo and Katie investigate a shadowy government black ops military program. Publicly the program appears to be specially trained soldiers engaged in domestic anti-terrorist operations. (What backroom deals that were made to allow U.S. Soldiers to conduct actual military missions within the  borders of the U.S. during peace time is anybody's guess). The physical conditioning of the soldiers is impressive to the point of seeming impossible. The rumor is that they can run and swim faster, and longer and are much stronger than even the best trained Olympic level athlete. There are tales that they are impervious to pain and recover from injury at fantastic rates. The deeper rumor is that these so called Universal Soldiers aren't even alive, but the reanimated corpses of service members who've fallen in combat. What will happen when the public finds out that the U.S. Army is using zombie soldiers? Episode Segment Time Stamps Opening Credits . . . . . . 00:13:36Favorite Parts . . . . . . . . 00:39:20Trivia . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .01:25:29Critics' Thoughts . . . . . 01:42:31 Retromade Links:Podcast: https://retromade.captivate.fmYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@RetromadePodcastFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/retromadepodcast Please leave a comment, suggestion or question on our social media: Back Look Cinema: The Podcast Links:Website: www.backlookcinema.comEmail: fanmail@backlookcinema.comYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@backlookcinemaTwitter: https://twitter.com/backlookcinemaFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/BackLookCinemaInstagram: https://instagram.com/backlookcinemaThreads: https://www.threads.net/@backlookcinemaTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@backlookcinemaTwitch https://www.twitch.tv/backlookcinemaBlue Sky: https://bsky.app/profile/backlookcinema.bsky.socialMastodon: https://mstdn.party/@backlookcinemaBack Look Cinema Merch at Teespring.comBack Look Cinema Merch at Teepublic.com Again, thanks for listening.
