Yippee Ki-Yay Moviegoer! by Vern

Badass Writings for Badass Cinema

By Eric Yang on 5.10.10

Following the cult-success of Seagalogy: A Study of the Ass-Kicking Films of Steven Seagal, Vern (full name) has released his second book, the equally short-titled Yippee Ki-Yay Moviegoer!: Writings on Bruce Willis, Badass Cinema and Other Important Topics ($10). Focused on over-the-top action film genre, Vern’s witerary, laugh out loud, style on cinema reviews (and other topics) are in two words: bloody refreshing. Vern, a writer for Ain’t It Cool and Outlaw Vern will satiate anyone (and aren’t all of us?) looking for a no holds barred take on modern cinema.

Guillermo Del Toro, the director of Pan’s Labyrinth and Hellboy called Vern “a national treasure.” We’re apt to agree. Moviegoer or not, peg this one on your summer reading list.
