THE HIT LIST: March 23, 2020
The weekend may have seen the first of a major downturn of things in the wake of the Coronavirus’s spread. But, fear not. While in isolation, you are more than welcome to enjoy our action-packed column, The Hit List, to help bide your time, and there’s plenty of action to go around. Alas, first is our usual playlist rounding up stunt demo and performance reels from some of today’s best and rising in the field: Rachel Gelfield, Jared Jay Cox, Shannah Robin, Anthony Czumalowski, Emma Bradbury, Lukas Stoiber, Marcus Adair, Richard Buckman, Bethany Curry, Devin LaMon, Christopher Bizub, Shawn Daniels, Jahlil Wallace, Kaanchana Kerr, Masaaki Nitta and Daniel Locicero. What you see is the recent poster unveiling for director Andrew McGee’s new cyberpunk short, Venus. The key art arrives in the wake of a Kickstarter camapiagn to help ramp up post-production with just 29 days left as of this post. […]
THE HIT LIST: November 20, 2017
I was a little more keen on taking this week off given the forthcoming holiday, but I was already on par for another installment of the Hit List so I figured “why not?”… Alas, we’ve arrived to another spiffy new around of demo reels and action gems to help warm you up. Cameron Bostanabad kicks off this week’s round of stunt and training reels followed by Wes Cochran, Braelyn Smallwood, Megan Dorn (https://www.megandorn.com), Andrew Mihalko, Jason Linere White, Barrett Coates, Al Dupont, Ryan Rasberry, Bryan Dodds, Joshua Zacharias and the daring feats of Kimberly Shannon Murphy (www.kimberlyshannon.net). Enjoy! This week is an especially ceremonial time for folks freshly off of this month’s Urban Action Showcase & Expo fallout. Angel Vasquez hails as yet another fledgling talent from Puerto Rico with plenty of time spent collaborating under fellow rising star Jose Manuel’s North Compass banner. Thus, Vasquez is poised to present […]
Review: Despite Keen Action Delivery, FIST 2 FIST: WEAPON OF CHOICE (2014) Falls Short On Its Arsenal
If it weren’t for David Van Tassell’s most recent interview with actor, martial artist and filmmaker Jino Kang, I probably would have lost my ever loving mind trying to weigh in on his latest film, Fist 2 Fist: Weapon Of Choice, while thinking it was connected to its 2011 predecessor. Thus, it being a sequel in name only lifts a small burden off of my back some now that I can catch it at some point without urgency, while having screened the new movie and now with a more suited, pieceworthy opinion to espouse and share accordingly. Indeed, the film is an award-winner and a hit with action fans and some critics who’ve seen it, which is understandable in a number of instances as it introduces Kang in the role of a Jack Lee, former hitman whose previous life comes back to haunt him with the kidnapping of his niece […]
PROFESSION OF CHOICE: An Interview With Actor And Filmmaker Jino Kang (VIDEO)
When David Van Tassell isn’t working on his own projects, every now and then he serves as contributor to Film Combat Syndicate and upon his recent review of actor and martial artist Jino Kang’s latest action thriller, Fist 2 Fist: Weapon Of Choice, Tassell took the opportunity to offer his services for an interview with the film’s director and star. The movie itself is already available wherever you can find it on VoD and DVD, and is also poised for a premiere on The Fight Channel in the UK this summer while Kang discusses, among other things, his career and current goals in film. For the hearing impaired, Tassell has also made the following transcript available just beneath, and we especially send our thanks to Tassell for going the extra mile to offer us a feat as rare as this seeing as how we rarely get to do Skype interviews […]
Review: FIST 2 FIST: WEAPON OF CHOICE (2014) Fires Hard And Heavy With Action, Runs Low Too Soon
Want to know what I like about filmmaking? Anyone can do it. Want to know what else I like about filmmaking? ANYONE can do it. Now don’t take this from me as being patronizing. I really do say this from the exact opposite end. Filmmakers come from all walks of life and backgrounds and when one of those backgrounds happens to be in martial arts you get a very unique kind of filmmaker who can produce art with the discipline developed over years of pushing one’s boundaries. It’s a background that I am glad to say I can share with filmmaker and action actor Jino Kang. Fist 2 Fist 2: Weapon of Choice is a sequel in name only to Kang’s 2011 film Fist 2 Fist and brings with itself a brutal action packed story to the screen that lends a brutality to it akin to John Wick or Taken.
