We've hit a lot of different (Canadian) genres in #VIDtober 2: kids film, thriller, horror, and now, comedy? Yes, comedy! 1987's MR. NICE GUY is the type of (Canadian) 80's comedy we haven't seen since THE FUNNY FARM (not that FUNNY FARM)! Literally, since star Mike McDonald (not that Mike McDonald) and co-writer Mark Breslin are both in that movie as well! (Which was also Canadian.)

We close out #JuneBOOM with 1981's FIRECRACKER, advertised by New World to be "the first erotic martial arts thriller." How true is this statement? And is the film erotic enough in the way that middle aged folks would like? We examine with the help of Get Me Another Podcast co-host Chris Iannacone, who also watched New World's TNT JACKSON, a movie that has the exact same plot and was also directed by Cirio Santiago.
