I was born and raised on classic martial arts movies and watching one of the greatest 80s action stars of the time, Jean-Claude Van Damme. As a big JCVD fan I decided to rank his top movies and await the internet to scream at me in CAP LOCKS for being wrong! So here are 12 of Jean-Claude Van Damme’s best and worst movies!

22 90s Cult Classics
