This action classic stars JCVD as Frank Dux, alongside eighties mainstays such as Donald Gibb, Leah Ayres, and Bolo Yeung.

…ble Team! It is action gold of the ‘so bad it’s awesome’ kind. Jean-Claude Van Damme teams up with DENNIS RODMAN to take down Mickey Rourke!

Cyborg (1989): Lots of Questions, Not Much Cyborg

Posted on March 11, 2023 by Action Flick Chick

One of Jean-Claude Van Damme’s earliest films, Cyborg features splits, kicks, and staring contests. A little known skill of Van Damme’s, he sometimes challenges the enemy to a staring contest, and sometimes he stares off into the void as if he’s taking on something/someone no one else can see. Good work! In Cyborg, humans have nearly been wiped out by a global plague (hmm, I think we can relate) and data for the cure has to make it safely from NY… Continue reading →

Independent Film: Evil Things (2009) – Is That That Van?

Posted on January 5, 2010 by Action Flick Chick

…off being stalked by a van, so I have come to call this film “Is That That Van?” The film is a slow starter, but what do you expect when you are being stalked by a van?

Check out the trailer to see if “Is That That Van?” suits you! This is the Action Flick Chick, and you’ve just… Continue reading →
