362. 7 Song Friday 12-20-24 Holiday Spectacular!

                  This is a holiday super spectacular!  Minus a bit about a hippo, thanks YouTube.

361. Ultraman 20, 21: Terror in the Smoke!

                  We look at two decent if not memorable episodes, though the park the Hydra is in is well represented in many superhero shows.

Arrow Video Shaws Blu Ray (Chang Cheh edition)

Just received this yesterday.  I have three of the four films on DVD (on a DVDr) and Five Venoms of course on Blu Ray already.  I might have done all the Shaolin movies together, but this is a great set.  I am already watching Shaolin Temple, since that was the one I wanted an upgrade of the most.  That was lousy sentence structure, but you know what I mean.  Suffice it to say, this set is stunning.  It is loaded with extras, I mean, it is from Arrow, so that is to be expected.  It has all the English dubs and some of the English opening credit scenes.  I love their product, I will tell you what.  I couldn't tell you which company is best, Kino-Lorber or Arrow, but damn I am glad to have both of them around.  They have better extras on their discs than most of the big popular movies and companies ever do.  They sure know their audience, I'll tell you what.

360. Obro is The GIANT of Metropolis! (1961)

            This is one strange peplum movie, and that is saying something, I'll tell you what.

HOTW- Obro

 

From Wiki: The Giant of Metropolis (Italian: Il gigante di Metropolis) is a 1961 color Italian fantasy adventure film that was produced by Decio Salvi and Emimmo Salvi, directed by Umberto Scarpelli, that stars Gordon Mitchell and Bella Cortez. Muscleman Obro travels to the sinful capital of Atlantis to rebuke its godlessness and hubris and becomes involved in the battle against its evil lord Yotar and his hideous super-science schemes, which involve transplanting an old and knowledgeable brain into his son's body.  Back to me:

359. Fantastic Dinosaurs of the Movies from 1990!

               Things sure have changed since the days of VHS, haven't they?  I can't say I miss grainy fullscreen copies, that's for sure.

Lene Lovich - Lucky Number

           I have heard several of Lene Lovich's songs, and liked them all.  She is a fascinating performer.

358. Captain America 1966: Spies and Traitors!

In which we get blocked in ONE territory for the last segment on the episode... any guesses?
