ABSTRACT:
If Shaft, V.I. Warshawski, and Magnum P.I. had a threesome (the movies and tv show I mean, not the people, although that'd be awesome too!), and if this threesome resulted in a badass love child that was a video game, it would be Action Movie: The Series (the video game). Action Movie is based loosely on youtube's The Worst Movie Death Scene ever, and highly influenced by the best and worst of 70s action B-movies and 80s action tv series. If something is worth doing, it's worth doing badly. And Action Movie: The Series (The Video Game) is one baaaaaaaaaad mutha--shut yo' mouth.

Action Movie has everything: Gunfights, chase scenes, explosions, midgets, disco dancing, The President, all you can eat Tacos, and more.

So strap yourself in, turn up the volume on your shitty laptop speakers, and get ready for Action. Action Movie, that is!

CONTROLS:
During Play:
Crispy moves with w,a,s,d and shoots with f.
