Roddy Piper’s second greatest line ever
What a blow that Roddy Piper, easily the most charismatic wrestler-actor of the 80s and 90s, has died at 61. Piper holds a special place in horror/sci-fi movie history for his role in They Live, but even in his less discussed roles he was a blast to watch.
An interview with Karl Schiffman
Fascinated by Mark "Jacko" Jackson's cop film Bullet Down Under, I decided to track down its screenwriter, Karl Schiffman, for an interview. We discuss the film, the script he wrote for Roddy Piper/Billy Blanks' Back in Action and of course Billy Blanks' chest.
Back in Action (1993)
Roddy Piper joins wooden Billy Blanks. Wooden would be praise. Wood has grains and knots. In other words wood has character. Blanks is more like a muscled shirtless slab of fuming MDF. But Blanks makes up for his acting by turning Back in Action into his own kicking rampage.
