…but I needed the following morning as well. This new update turned out more Christmasy than I intended when a seemingly simple idea spiraled out of my control:
Challenge of the Masters (1976), which is basically Drunken Master without the jokes…
Executioners from Shaolin (1977), in which Lau Kar Leung caps off Chang Cheh Shaolin Temple cycle before getting to work on his own…
Exposed to Danger (1982), about the closest thing you’ll ever find to a Chinese giallo…
Lake of Dracula (1971), another of the surprisingly numerous Dracula movies with no Dracula…
Santa and the Ice Cream Bunny (1972), in which you’ll have no more idea what an Ice Cream Bunny is after watching than you had to begin with…
Scrooge, or Marley’s Ghost (1901), in which it makes sense for Jacob Marley to do all the work, since there are only six minutes of screen time in which to finish it…
Old Scrooge (1913), in which Marley has to do it all again, for reasons that aren’t nearly as obvious…
Scrooge (1935), in which Ebenezer Scrooge talks for the first time at feature length, and has to contend with the correct number of ghosts, too…
and…
Wolfen (1981), a werewolf movie with no werewolves.
El Santo rules the wasteland-- and also 1000 Misspent Hours and Counting.
