Welcome to Waxing the Porpoise, the podcast that dives deep into the unexplored depths of cinema and occasionally the unexplained.

This week G-Baby and the Usual Suspect Steve raise the flag and welcome back not only returning champion (Ruth's) Chris from the Mount Molehill podcast but also friend of the show Miles to rap about a flick they had both recommended, can't recall who did first - Riki-Oh: The Story of Ricky from 1991, a bloody kung-fu exploitation romp covered in viscera.

Join us as we dive in fist first to discuss eyeballs popping, head slicing and literal gut busting practical effects that take no prisoners, the difference between flautas and flutists/flautists, the underseen horror anthology gem The Willies, the fact there are zero repercussions for getting hit in your "dead spot", and how Mortal Kombat may or may not have taken a big heaping tablespoon of inspiration.

The porpoises, midnight companions and keen observers, stand up to defend the weak, fighting back against the Gang of 4, corrupt privatized prison officials, and Heihachi on a bad batch of steroids.

Call me Ricky, call me Danny.

Let's wax this spinning back heel porpoise.
