Van Damme punches ghosts

From cinemablend, "I love covering Jean-Claude Van Damme stories. Not because I want to see him anything, but because the mere thought of him being in anything is pretty hilarious. When did Van Damme go from Belgium’s number one ass-kicking national treasure to international joke? Probably around the time of Street Fighter. Videogame movies are great for ruining careers.

The latest on Van Damme is that he’s going to try and get in on the whole supernatural thriller craze. Moviehole says he’s starring in a movie called Holy Blood. It’s supposed to be about the occult and supernatural, but not necessarily a horror movie. Like you, I have no idea what that means. I picture Van Damme in some sort of black turtle-neck doing his best impression of David Duchovny. If Jean-Claude really wants his career back, he’ll have to kill The Rock, Vin Diesel, Jackie Chan, Chuck Norris, Jet Li, Karl Urban, Jason Statham and Sly Stallone first. There has to be some way to set up that cage match. Come on Hollywood, let’s give Van Damme a shot."

That's awesome. I haven't been to Disney in many years but I do remember that Tom Sawyer's Island was dead weight and that the Pirates ride ruled.

Whoops, that was meant to go on the above post.

What does one say about Van Damme? If Van Damme really wanted to give his career a much needed kick in the ass, he and Segal should finally do a movie together. One a cop, the other a bad guy. Big elaborate fight the death on a skyscraper. That would surely get attention.

I wanna see Van Damme try to roundhouse kick Kayako from The Grudge in the head while she's crawling out of the tank top he's wearing.
