This week on S&A Lindsay and Preston Mitchell go the way of Revenge in a Double of  Jim Jarmusch's Ghost Dog: The Way of the Samurai (1999) & Park Chan-wook's Olddog (2003). This is a Double of many things. The rules and philosophy behind it - the Japanese & Southern Korean Rules.

This week on S&A Lindsay & Robb Antequera head down into the underground of 1990s DTV Action with Don the Dragon's Ring of Fire: Blood and Steel (1993) & Gary Daniels' Riot (1996). This is a Double of a specific kind of action star. But it is also a Double of Budget Action Film Making, making action on the fly and how each movie handles each persona. Oh so much more round kicking and revenge than you are ready for.

On this week's S&A Lindsay and Luna Rossi Films & This is Film's Carlo be leaping. It's a bonkers mid naughties French double of Pierre Morel's District B13 (2004) & Louis Leterrier's Unleashed (2005). This is an action double that looks at a time and a place, but also a style of action and the history that lead up to it. It's my favourite kind of Double to cover. So much leaping! Parkour

This week on S&A Lindsay & Justin Anderson wake up in an unusual place. This is a Double of Philippe Mora's Communion (1989) & Dean Parisot's Galaxy Quest (1999) is there something out there or is it really just an episode of Television. Who knows - but these movies are awesome. So best to check the historical documents.
