On Christmas day, Netflix gifted action movie lovers the latest revenge tale, Kill 'em All 2, starring Jean-Claude Van Damme. Despite turning 65 this year, The Muscles from Brussels still has the balletic grace and acrobatic maneuvering fans have come to know and love since the 1980s. The story continues seven years after the 2017 action thriller Kill 'em All left off, pitting Jcvd's Philip against a ruthless Franco-Russian terrorist hell-bent on revenge.

Kill 'em All 2 introduces new characters not in the original, including a mysterious figure named Vanessa (Jaqueline Fernandez). While drips and drabs of background info come to light in the film, it's easy to miss how she relates to the main plot. As such, it's time to highlight Vanessa in Kill 'em All 2 and discuss who she is, her role, and how her relationship with Philip (Jcvd) informs the story.

Kill ‘Em All 2 picks up seven years after the events of the original, which makes sense since there’s seven years between the films, with Phillip reconnected with his daughter Vanessa and the two of them hiding out in southern Italy.

They obviously didn’t do a good job of it, as within the film’s first few minutes they’re attacked by goons working for Vlad Petrovic who is out to avenge the death of his brother Dimitri who was killed in the first film. This puts them on the run, trying to stay alive long enough to deal with Vlad and his crew, and the only way to do that is to kill ’em all.

I haven’t seen the original, and to be honest...

Philip and Suzanne, now agents partnered by the CIA, head to Europe on a new assignment. Jean-Claude Van Damme return as Philip, though Autumn Reeser as Suzanne from the first movie has been replaced by Jacqueline Fernandez as a character named Vanessa instead. The cast also includes Peter Stormare, Maria Conchita Alonso, Andrei Lenart, and Talia Asseraf. On the run, outnumbered, and fighting for their lives, this father and daughter unite to save themselves and the village that Phillip once called home. This looks absolutely terrible,...

"We're in this together now." Gravitas has revealed an official trailer for a movie called Paradox Effect, made by filmmaker Scott Weintrob. Despite that title sounding possibly sci-fi, this isn't really a sci-fi movie, just another one of these generic action thrillers about criminals and cops and drug dealers and all the usual stuff. It's set to arrive on VOD to watch this September in the fall. An ex junkie witnesses a murder. She is forced to cooperate with the killer to save her daughter's life. She must fight time, the police and criminal underworld to save the only person who means something to her. The mastermind behind it all is crime lord Silvio and his vicious gangsters who forces Karina and Covek, a deadly killer threatened by him, to go on a journey against time.
