The Film Capsule Podcast returns with a classic action movie double header!

John and Ian discuss two of John Carpenter’s collaborations with his favorite badass, Kurt Russell. Along the way, they consider what makes Carpenter a great genre director and debate whether his style still has a place alongside today’s action films. Will they agree, or will it be a full court basketball game to the death?

Any questions, thoughts or feedback? We’d love to hear from you! Write us at filmcapsuleblog@gmail.com or comment on this post or over at Soundcloud.

Special thanks to Old Men Playing Chess for the music.
