We had another fair week of work at The Tomb of Anubis (http://www.tombofanubis.com) folks. Both Nix and Ragnarok returned this week to tag a few flicks along with Anubis.
Nix started off the festivities on Tuesday with a review for the Stallone infested comic book crapdaptation Judge Dredd. Ragnarok brought the bacon for Wednesday with the ninja nun craziness of Kunoichi: Lady Ninja. And Anubis finished out the week on Thursday with the overgrown kaiju fighting mockumentary Big Man Japan.
Sweet :wink:
Thank God! I'm not the only person who's seen (and reviewed) "Dai-Nipponjin" around here! I totally agree with you that flick Anubis: A lot of wasted potential. The climax is amazing though. I laughed until I cried; then skipped back a few chapters and watched the "Super Justice" clan kick some ass again.
Here's my review for the flick if you give a damn: CLICK HERE (http://www.bmoviefilmvault.com/capsule_reviews/dai_nipponjin.html)
Also, I read somewhere that the red devil creature was supposed to symbolize North Korea and Super Justice represented the US. How that all comes together in the end is a mystery to me, but perhaps it will be solved when this bad boy hits Region 1 DVD..... if it ever does.

Actually, it kinda makes sense, given that when the Super Justice folks beat on the red devil, it's not a big dynamic fight like you'd expect, but more like a super-sized mugging. It's kinda brutal watching them beat him over the head with rolled up newspapers, and the tear the clothes off of him! I agree with you on that Jordy, hopefully the US release comes with a good commentary track to help make sense of the insanity! :buggedout:
