It's episode 179, and our mission is simple. We go in, and we take him out!
The Raid (2011) aka The Raid: Redemption follows Rama, a member of a Jakarta Special Forces squad who embark on an ill-fated assault on a drug lord's compound. Twists and turns (of limbs) ensue, as well as punches, kicks, stabbings, shootings, bottlings, bannisterings, bulbings and defenestrations in one of the bloodiest and bloody-brilliant-est films we've ever covered.
We talk about martial arts, musicals and Mad Dogs, why you should never antagonise a man with a gun who has a gun to your head (that's a fairly obvious one), and Joe reveals why, in the life and death game of Tekken, there's only one motto to remember: invite them to dinner, and feed them.
All of which leads to one important question: How would you survive?
Whatever happens, one thing's for sure: They'll come here. They'll tear this place to the ground.
Next week, we're back on our franchise bullshit with A Nightmare on Elm Street 3: Dream Warriors (1987)
