THE HIT LIST: March 4, 2019

I actually had a lot to do this weekend – some of which I almost didn’t get done… this week’s installment of The Hit List being one of them. Alas, here we are! Julia Maggio is here to get things started for the action reels playlist this week followed by the latest in stunt and demo gems from Josh Fried, Talin Chat, Ali Al-Azawi, Erin Wu, Paul Hampshire, Danny Darwin, Austin Maxwell, Olivia Summers, ‘Enelē Ma’afu Tauteoli, Steffen Jung, Kenny Waymack Jr., Shawn Marie Koo, Pingi Moli, Jose Pacheco, and some astute stunt and fight choreography by the one-and-only Matt Mullins! Time to promote some stuff, and thus, we have a first look at Trent Dickens’ upcoming short, Panda, which bodes as one of the most trippy, existential crime dramas you’ll possibly ever see. The tease comes ahead of the full trailer on Friday, and just beneath is a teaser […]

Lee B. Golden III

So, as many of you know, The Defenders has premiered on Netflix and from what I can gather on social media, it has been well received. Of course people will find issues with the show as they do most shows, but I have to be honest, I truly enjoyed it. So much in fact I decided to do a follow up interview with Daredevil stunt double Chris Brewster. This will make our second interview. If you would like to read the first one, feel free to check it out here. Eric Shamm Watson: Chris, how have you been man? The last time we talked was shortly after DD: Season 1. Let’s get everyone caught up. I know one thing that has changed. Now you are a proud father of a beautiful baby girl with eyes that will put most people in a trance. Chris Brewster: Oh man!

THE HIT LIST – August 22, 2016

Lee B. Golden III

This week’s installment of the Hit List will definitely be a little light on content. My guess is everyone’s been busy working, which is good for me seeing as if not, I wouldn’t be able to share as much as I often do. As always, we get things started with a fresh new playlist full of stunt and training reels from today’s talented professionals. Stuntman and Shaolin martial artist Tien Hoang is letting it rip with a terrific weapons demo reel directed by Colin Emerson (Sapphire, Dead End). Rounding it out are stuntwomen Gabriela Rodriguez, Hannah Scott and Lacey Robinson, along with Niko Dalman, LeRoyal Tutt, Megan Hui, Clancy Peterson, Malik Bouabid, Bristol Movement Collection‘s own freerunning and tumbling talent Jonathan Last and French cascadeurs Kevin and Heinrich Laurent. Gaging some promotional materials for a bit, there are three new items on the table and the first comes courtesy of […]

Well, my weekend was another work weekend. Apart from that I just played it low key and tuned into some more anime and more Hit List content, and I didn’t think I would find a lot to load for the second playlist. As you’ll see, I found plenty to share amid all you can now enjoy in this week’s installment, including a new set of stunt and action demo reels Joseph Ray Santos, Erika Keck, Jon Miguel, Monica Lopez Aleman, Paul Drechsler, Ben Van Huis, Michaela McAllister, Sean Kohnke, Darren Holmquist and Gibb Diaz Ng Yu. Rounding it out is a spiritual tribute to the one and only Jean-Claude Van Damme from filmmaker and well known independent action extraordinaire, Vlad Rimburg. Highlights from many of his earlier hits such as Cyborg, Kickboxer, Double Impact, Lionheart, Hard Target and Timecop are all included with an opening theme central to the exposition […]

WHITE TIGER Kicks Into Action With A New Trailer!

Lee B. Golden III

Southeast Asia has been a longstanding beacon for stage-setting spectacular martial arts action films for many, many years, with the most recent being Ninja: Shadow Of A Tear, and the forthcoming release of Ekchai Uekrongtham’s Skin Trade to name a few. And this week, that trend continues with the latest jungle action thriller, White Tiger. Filmed in Thailand and Paupa New Guinea with director, Hong Kong action cinema veteran, actor and genre documentarian Toby Russell, the White Tiger was completed in 2012 following subsequent post-production until it was hampered by some legal issues at the time. At least now it seems things may be moving forward as we are finally granted a new trailer ahead of the Cannes next month, which I’m guessing means will probably lead to some distribution news sometime this year. Produced by Tri-M Entertainment President, Karen Kaing, White Tiger sets lead actor and Xtreme Martial Arts […]
