Rapid Assault (1x365)

Air date: Mar 25, 2022

Submarines and sealabs, ahoy! Packed with all the straight-to-video action and bland mustachioed guys you’ve come to expect from a Fred Olen Ray joint, it’s Rapid Assault! A terrorist builds a world-ending biological weapon in an abandoned sealab at the bottom of the ocean - presumably for tax purposes? - and threatens to release it if the U.S. military won’t pay him a relatively low, Rod-from-Birdemic amount of money. So the military does what any reasonable force trying to prevent human extinction would do: they call in one agent. A guy named Decker (no, as far as we know Tim Heidecker had nothing to do with this) with an occasional Southern accent and a penchant for kicking guys slowly. Can Decker and a dead scientist’s daughter save the world? Will a submarine deploy nuclear weapons for no good reason? Will anyone notice the sealab sets look an awful lot like a factory from any other Fred Olen Ray action film? Join Mike, Kevin and Bill for the Rapid Assault and find out!
