Matthew Karedas aka Matt Hannon is the star of the low budget, "so bad it's great" action flick from 1991 called Samurai Cop. The film which was destined for a "straight to video" release was never given a proper release at all, and in fact went completely unseen for decades before eventually finding its way to youtube a few years ago. What's happened since has been nothing short of incredible!
Samurai Cop has developed a crazy cult following of fans who appreciate the campy nature and ever-present production mistakes that this crazy buddy cop movie serves up.
Matthew's personal story is perhaps even crazier! From his time working as a bodyguard for Sylvester Stallone to his supposed death, you have to hear these amazing stories straight from the source!
It's a really fun chat about Matthew's life, the Hollywood B-movie scene in the early 90's, the making of Samurai Cop and what it's like being part of a now cult classic film.
