For this Wednesday Super Slop Night, first up is Watari the Ninja Boy (1966), an adaptation of a manga about a kid ninja who infiltrates an evil clan to take out some bad guys. A whole lot of cartoonish antics follow, along with sword fights, musical numbers, and animated sequences. This is the sort of movie that seems to have been written by a ten-year-old. Looks fun; let’s check it out.
After that is Death Becomes Her, a fantasy-comedy about an aging actress (Goldie Hawn) who decides to take an immortality potion as part of a plan to murder her rival (Meryl Streep) and take back her ex-fiance (Bruce Willis). Unfortunately, the potion doesn’t quite work as planned, and things spiral out of control from there. Hilarity ensues. Director is Robert Zemeckis, the guy behind Back to the Future (1985), Who Framed Roger Rabbit (1988), and Forrest Gump (1994). As with those, this film was lauded for its groundbreaking special effects, which often cross into a comedic version of body horror.
BONUS: we will also watch the 80s action spoof Kung Fury (2015), which was a Youtube sensation back in 2015.
We’ll start at 8PM EST on Hextube, right here:
