Our latest delve into martial arts cinema looks at the movie that inspired a John Carpenter favourite...
I've had a few comments here on my martial arts features asking "Where's the best place to start with martial arts films?" and I always find myself struggling to answer. The genre's so broad that it's hard to know what to recommend - different people will respond to different films, of course - and yet all this time, the perfect answer for Den Of Geek readers has been staring me in the face. If you've grown up on the geek diet of comic books, Star Wars, Lord Of The Rings, and the Diy SFX of Doctor Who, then the ideal martial arts starter movie for you is Zu: Warriors From The Magic Mountain (1983).
Zu was a significant film for the Hong Kong 'New Wave' movement that revolutionised the industry in the late 70s.

Samantha Bee dissected the incompetent and infuriating investigations into Russia's campaign to disparage Hillary Clinton and influence the 2016 election on Full Frontal.
Bee began with a recap of how House Intelligence Committee Chair Devin Nunes has thrown that chamber's investigation into a partisan disarray, while the Senate's investigation has been more decorous, but heavy on bluster and light on new information. "Let me see if I can explain Russia's complex, high-tech cyber techniques in layman's terms," Bee cracked. "They put crazy shit on Facebook, polluting our brains until we all...

Stephen Colbert poked fun at Ticketmaster Thursday night after the company released their list of not-so-appetizing free concerts, the result of a long-standing, just-settled class action lawsuit.
"Ticketmaster is settling a class action lawsuit for overcharging customers, and as part of the settlement, they're giving out $5 million dollars in free concert tickets. Obviously, minus a $3.5 million dollar processing fee," Colbert said.
Like everyone else who logged into their Ticketmaster account to find free ticket vouchers waiting for them, that excitement soon turned into disappointment for Colbert when he saw the...

Anne Marie is tracking Judy Garland's career through musical numbers...
Though we last left Judy Garland in 1944 crooning from a trolley and cementing a (troubled) place in Hollywood history, this week we must catapult two years into the future to rejoin our musical heroine. The reason has to do with the odd nature of the Studio System in general and this series in specific. Judy Garland actually shot two movies between 1944 and 1945, but because one was delayed due to reshoots (therefore getting bumped to next week) and the other was a straight drama (therefore not fitting a series focused on musical numbers), we must travel through the end of WW2 and the beginning of Judy Garland's marriage to Vincente Minnelli. Thus, in 1946 we arrive in... the Old West?
