Damo rocks out in his original "Kick Arse Credit Song" for Poltergeist. Incredible lyrics and a banging tune - definitely one of the best.

1985 was the year Sylvester Stallone became the biggest star on the planet. With Rocky IV and Rambo: First Blood Part II, he didn't just dominate the box office; he defined 80s action cinema. In this episode of Born to Watch, we head back to the jungle to break down…

The American Ninja 1985 Review is here, and this one is a full-blown nostalgia trip… with a harsh reality check. Back in the 80s, ninja movies ruled. They were fast, intense, and made you believe you could take on an army after one viewing. But does American Ninja still hold…

Here is our Kick Arse Credit Song for American Ninja - written by our very own Gow. The "BTW House Band " has done a great job of capturing the essence of Born to Watch and, of course, the movie. The Kobadera is an 80's Synth Rock-inspired anthem for all…

American Ninja took us back our childhood but was it a great trip down memory lane or a rocky road 😂 It at the very least contained a quote that will go down in Born to Watch lore.

This week on Born to Watch, the boys dive into the 2002 review of The Bourne Identity, the film that completely reshaped the action genre. Before Bourne, action heroes were larger-than-life. Explosions, one-liners, and over-the-top set pieces ruled the screen. Then along came Jason Bourne, a man with no memory,…

How explains the feats of strength that it takes to become an American Ninja

If you grew up on late-night TV and the video store action aisle, this scene is burned into your brain. This is the legendary training montage from Hard to Kill (1990) — the moment Detective Mason Storm wakes from a 7-year coma and somehow goes from barely standing… to full…

Hard to Kill was certainly hard to watch. It’s sad when Will makes a realisation about all the movies he loved as a kid. Is he right?? #moviepodcast #borntowatchpodcast

DAMO comes back to form with another cracking Kick Arse Credit Song. The Perfect Storm was a good rewatch and hearing Damo’s song made it even better. Is it the true star of the show or was it George Clooney or Mark Wahlberg??

In this episode of Born to Watch, we revisit Ghostbusters II (1990), a sequel that arrived with enormous expectations and delivered one of the most divisive follow-ups of the era. After the cultural impact of the original Ghostbusters, audiences waited five years for the team to return, hoping for the…
