Episode 166 - Irezumi + lots more!
from The Stacks Hosted by j. the curator
On our return to the normal Stacks after the extended Spooky Stacks season, in part one (0:00-1:05:38) we talk in depth about the 1966 Yasuzo Masumura jidaigeki Irezumi, as well as the first episode of Ultraman - "Ultra Operation No. 1" (also from 1966). In part two (1:05:39-2:36:23) we have a large batch, discussing David Lynch's heartwarming 1999 Disney true-life drama The Straight Story, the 1979 Hanna-Barbera Don Chaffey slapstick comedy C.H.O.M.P.S., the 1970 Harald Reinl adaptation of Erich von Daniken's ancient aliens book Chariots of the Gods, the 2023 John Francis Daley & Jonathan Goldstein D&D deep lore adventure Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves, the 1973 Jacinto Molina / Paul Naschy entry in the Count Waldemar Daninsky saga, The Fury of the Wolfman, David "The Rock" Nelson's 'Adventures of Janet' shorts, the 1985 entry in the Jaka Sembung series, The Warrior & The Ninja (directed by H. Tjut Dalil), Laura Gemser's film debut in Pier Ludovico Pavoni's 1974 sexploitation Amore Libero (Free Love), and the difficult 1972 Jane Arden experimental picture The Other Side of the Underneath. As usual, in part three, we talk about all the other physical media we've watched since last week and make our picks for next week's episode.
