I mean, they meant Babaika, not Baba Yaga, it was just an error that has been fixed after the movie was released in the BluRay versions. Which is why he calls him the Boogeyman, not Scary Old Woman.
There is a glaring omission that NEEDS to Joe Serio to return: 'The Machine' starring Bert Kreischer. I will not rest until he does a review of The Machine.
I would like to comment on bathhouse scene with Vigo. Typically, in prison, one would be armed with zatochka (a shiv). Usually it's sharpened toothbrush, sometimes melted with razor blade. It is not as dangerous as a real blade, but far easier to conceal and get your hands on inside prison.
You should have historians or mob experts do a reaction video to the episode about prohibition from the UA-cam channel Oversimplified. It’s a funny yet memorable take on history.
Insanely a childhood friend had a cousin that got caught up in a Russian fight syndicate in the U.S. 20 or so years ago. Was a 6 foot tall farmboy that weighed 160 dripping wet and then they gave him steroids. Didn't see him for a few years and then Timmy was damn near 250 scary looking as f with scars eveywhere..
That's mainly the former KGB or FSB today. I grew up under Russian occupation in Eastern Germany and to use poison is a thing the KGB used to do. Putin used to be the head of the KGB in Dresden (Eastern Germany)
Poisoning is just a popular fake that Western special services likes to use when framing Russians. Just do some real reserach about any such cases outside of Westen Mainstream media bauble. Everey time in such cases there are a lot inconsistencies.

Just a small nitpick, its "brat", without the "h". Slavic languages dont have the "th" spelling/sound. Its a sharp word, the "th" would make it sound more rounded.
Exactly. I'd love to hear what he has to say about the current geo politics of the US election and other European elections benefitting Russia (i.e Putin)
Should I believe a guy who formerly worked with the FBI and CIA, been living in Russia and first-hand talked with Russian mafia guys, or should I believe an anonymous guy in the youtube comments section?
Feel free to tell us how it goes. ;-) I lived in Moscow and I did see guys in the Mafia with those tattoos. A lot of Russians go to steam baths (banya) and certain steam baths are run by the Mafia. I only went to that steam bath a few times, and just felt uncomfortable. For those who actually want to know more. Execellent book by Russian expert - The Vory: Russia's Super Mafia by Mark Galeotti
If you notice, they usually have a Former such and such to review these things 😆 Is there a such thing as a former Russian mobster? Likely.. But not on Al Gore's Worldwide Web.
Shame everyone forgets about S2 of The Wire. "Did he have hands? Did he have a face? Yes? Then it wasn't us." Such a crazy line.
Season 2 is probably my favourite as well.

Chernobog would have been a better reference, IMO. The "Black God," "God of Misfortune," or simply "The Devil"

You used Bilibin's illustration for Baba Yaga... Wow... I like how your experts work, this is very professional!!!
Seeing John wick made me instantly click the video!
The way he told the stories made the heyday of the Russian mafia seem so exciting
I was hoping that clips from The Machine would be included, even though it's a wacky comedy lol
Thank god 'Eastern Promises' gets as much attention in this video as it deserves. Truly a masterpiece of story telling.
I need to check out Brigada. Sounds like it's the equivalent for Russia's scene what Gomorrah was re: Italy.

Damn even a clip from russian movie "Brat" (Brother) and he talks about "Brigada". The guy knows his stuff for sure.
The editing of this is abysmal. At certain points, the speaker is cut off mid-sentence, making what he says almost meaningless.

Some clips are so short 😂
Amazing
I wonder what this guy would think of Major Grom lol
0:14 ofc that’s not true. That’s NYPD’s motto 🙌🏼
Azerbaijani groups mentioned
RED DON!!!
Great piece. But what about poisoning? Is that a Russian thing. Or just a Putin thing?

I have tryed to write long answer why in most cases it is fakes but my replay was deleted :)
Now you can make your own conclusions :)
I watched brath yesterday. Funny.

Teddy KGB ?
This video was quite engaging, i find these clips about organized crime very interesting.
This becomes quite propagandistic at the end.
THE EQUALIZER.
THE JACKAL.
LITTLE ODESSA.
RED HEAT.
TRAINING DAY.
After 5 years CIA service career he switched to Holywood 😂😂
"Follow the money" 🤑
Please rate Bert Krishner "the Machine"!!!!
And we voted in the biggest Pootin lover of all, the USA is sososooold!
Oh you poor thing. Go get that TDS checked out quick
Exactly. I'd love to hear what he has to say about the current geo politics of the US election and other European elections benefitting Russia (i.e Putin)
Russia
Egg.
Not sure bout this guy
The John Wick movies are based on a true story right lol
Sorry guys, but “coronation” scene is not even close to be realistic…
Why, was your coronation completely different?
I'd love to hear you elaborate as to why.

I just farted
WTH IS THIS
It's called a video. They're new.
Gave up. He was just talking too much. Would have been better if you'd taken away his remote control.
Lol what? You just wanted to watch clips from mafia movies?
