Smash Cut

…but you can’t deny how catchy it is!

Action tough guy/akido master/would-be blues singer/alleged mob target Steven Seagal certainly seems to have a bit of a following in Japan. I mean, they advertise for DVD box sets of his films on TV for crissakes!

Seagal hasn’t cranked out any theatrical releases in the States in ages. It seems that, like the Muscles from Brussels Jean-Claude Van Damme, his career is permanently caught in direct-to-video land. Don’t let that fool you, though. The soft-spoken, pony-tailed one has proven that he’s not totally washed up and can still deliver the R-rated goods. And he even has a role in The Onion Movie as, well, see for yourself. Maybe he’s going to enjoy some renewed stardom, albeit in an “ironic” post Onion context.
