Summary

“It weighs 250 pounds!” - Chris on Seagal’s huge jacket in this movie

On the season 16 premiere of We Hate Movies, we’re chatting about the outrageous Steven Seagal directorial debut, On Deadly Ground! Having first talked about this way back at our first ever live show taping, we’re getting our eyes on this one again in-studio over ten years later to ask the important questions like: How long did it take the costume department to craft Seagal’s huge fur snowsuit? Has Michael Caine ever looked more disgusting in a film? How satisfying is that Sven-Ole Thorsen torture job? And why in the world did they make us wait 70 minutes before giving us some sweet, sweet Billy Bob Thornton? PLUS: The VHS Trailer Game Cameo appearance to beat them all!

On Deadly Ground stars Steven Seagal, Joan Chen, John C. McGinley, R. Lee Ermey, Shari Shattuck, Billy Bob Thornton, Richard Hamilton, Mike Starr, Sven-Ole Thorsen, and Michael Caine as Michael Jennings; directed, sort of, by Steven Seagal.
