Don't press me...I am pretty close to the edge...and you might find yourself staring down a defense of Scott Pilgrim vs. The World.

That terrifies me, as it might force me to watch the film again. In the years since seeing it I have pretty successfully erased it from my memory and would prefer to keep it that way.

To be fair, gravy or a red wine sauce is often required.

Jean-Claude Van Damme is a personal childhood favorite. He's got great ones like:
No Retreat, No Surrender
Bloodsport
Universal Soldier
Street Fighter
Double Team

Okay, some of those are pretty bad, but they're good for nostalgia.

Otherwise:
Jackie Chan
Jet Li
Bruce Willis (5th Element, duh!)
Sigourney Weaver
Mila Jovovich
Matt Damon (Bourne Trilogy ranks high for me)

And Hard Target, which is seriously the friggin greatest. Tosses a full tin gas can at a guy like it's a bag of popcorn, then promptly shoots it in midair, causing the can to somehow explode in the guy's face. Also, Lance Henriksen. "You are a fucking buffalo!"

I'm gonna Mexify this thread! Growing up as a kid, your Latino dad would rent these on VHS and you had no choice but to watch them. Gloriously cheesy and violent

Mario Almada. Kinda like the Mexican Clint Eastwood of cinema

Image

El Santo and Blue Demon! More cheese please! harkens back to the old days of weird 60's/70's B movie Cinema! Aliens, mummies, vampires and the wrestlers who fight them!

Image

Vicente Fernandez

Back then you had to have had multiple movies and albums to be successful This guy stuck around and followed the formula to great acclaim.

Image

Jorge Reynoso

If an 80's/90's movie had drugs, narcos, guns, gangs and violence this guy was probably in it. Another staple of classic spanish action VHS movies.

Image

there are obviously more. But the beaner in me can go on and on. I have derailed this here thread already.

That, and I'm also bored.
