Animal at the wheel…

November 10, 2008By

Looks like my Live Action Muppet Program has spawned some imitators, and soon real life versions of Muppets will be all over the planet. I, Dr. Mobusu, will turn this world into a real life Greg the Bunny! MuHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!! There is no escape from the future puppetting of America.

The Muppets’ Animal Caught Speeding, Driving Police Crazy

Yes, the photo above is real: It is Animal—from The Muppets—driving a British Audi while speeding through a German road. The famous pink drummer is driving the police there absolutely crazy, because he keeps doing it again and again. Or better said, the real driver is, using a low-tech approach to take advantage of a weak point of the radar cameras. I don’t know about you, but this image makes me laugh out loud. The German police, however, wasn’t amused when they explained to the press how the whole joke worked and how they couldn’t fine the driver because of it:

The number plate is not enough [to catch and fine the driver]. We need clear evidence of who is driving the vehicle too. But because this is a British vehicle we can never get a decent picture [because he radar cameras are designed to take photos of the passengers in the left seat, not the right]. The driver has obviously worked this out because he has placed a large puppet in the passenger seat.

This may be an example of the famous British sense of humour but it is still dangerous driving. The driver has been caught on camera on several occasions and the puppet is on the passenger seat every time. We suspect he positions the toy deliberately before accelerating past the camera.

Info on the SciFi Channel movie Carny

November 10, 2008By

The Jersey Devil gets loose on the SciFi Channel in 2009! Hopefully it will look pretty cool, but you never know with SciFi Channel sfx. The plot can be inconsequential as long as it is fun. So please be fun! Please?

New Sci-Fi TV Movie Carny Starts Production
Posted on Tuesday, November 04, 2008 – 05:15 PM

Carny, a sci-fi television film about the monstrous, sideshow attraction of a travelling carnival, began principal photography this week in Ottawa starring Lou Diamond Phillips (Numb3rs, 24) as Atlas, the Sheriff of the small town where the carnival lands. Hidden amongst the fairground workers and sideshow freaks is a Jersey Devil shackled in a cage. When he escapes, the half animal/half devil creature, with a thirst for blood, inflicts terrible revenge on the citizens of the town.

The frightfully haunting story is written by Douglas G. Davis and directed by Sheldon Wilson (Kaw, Shallow Ground). Muse Entertainment and Brava Pictures are producing the picture for the SCI FI Channel in the U.S. and Super Channel in Canada.

Alan C. Peterson (Across the River to Motor City, Smallville) also stars as Cap Caprini, the greedy and murderous owner of the carnival. Domenic Cuzzocrea (ReGenesis) plays his fumbling hechman Quinn. Joe Cobden (Blindness, I’m Not There) is the deputy sheriff and Vlasta Vrana (Human Trafficking) is Owen, the Pentecostal fire-and-brimstone minister, who stirs up the townsfolk against the carnival freaks and “devil”. Simone Elise Girard (ER, Naked Josh) is Samara, the beautiful fortuneteller of the carnival who falls in love with the Sheriff.

Angel Enforcers (Review)

November 9, 2008By

Angel Enforcers

aka Wong ga fei fung

1989
Directed by Hoh Chi Mau (probably Godfrey Ho)

Another in the long line of female action movies from Hong Kong, this uses the Angel name in its title despite being unrelated to Angel. The 1989 release date puts it near the beginnings of the movement, so it was released before the genre became fully saturated and the public moved on to different interests. That doesn’t mean it is a good film, but it is entertaining, lots of people end up getting shot, and main characters don’t even make it through the end of the film! What is weird is the film seems billed as a group of four female cops, but two of them have roles that are less substantial than minor characters in the film. It is what we would call “crazy”. The film is directed by Hoh Chi Mau, but this is the only film he is listed as directing, and on the dubbed trailer Godfrey Ho is listed as director(!) so this is probably just another of his pseudonyms. Previous Godfrey Ho encounters on TarsTarkas.NET include Robo Vampire (since proved NOT Godrey Ho), Catman in Lethal Track, Catman in Boxers Blow, and Deadly Target; so you can see why we are not too pleased to run into him again. Keep in mind that sometimes Godfrey Ho’s name showed up as director of films he didn’t do after Joseph Lai’s company released them (one noticeable example is Wolf Devil Woman, really directed by Pearl Cheung Ling.) Angel Enforcers is supposed to be out on DVD, but all we have is a subtitled, tore up VHS (and as those DVDs are just sourced from VHS, so we aren’t that far behind in quality) so that’s what we got screencaps from. Heck, maybe I’ll upgrade to Laserdisc next! The Inaccurate Movie DataBase is all over the map on the cast listing here, throwing in all sorts of actors and actresses that are nowhere near this film. But that’s what happens when you let the general public edit things. Enough complaining, we must get with the non-stop Hong Kong action! Cops shooting, criminals being evil, people dying, and women kicking butt!

First let’s meet our characters….

Yvonne (Sharon Yeung Pan Pan) – The main character does the best stunts, including unrealistic jump work during gun battles, and falling off of moving cars. When her partner is killed, she goes for revenge. Pan Pan Yeung starred in many action films through the mid-1990s, and was also seen here in Deadly Target
Marianne (Aan Lee) – Female cop and a real Angel Enforcer. Partner and friend of Yvonne, and committed to justice. Shoots Lethal Weapon 1, thus inspiring Lethal Weapon 2 to try to kill her. Is the daughter of police officer Uncle Dan and has a sister named Winnie. All three of them get exploded at various parts of the film.
Lethal Weapon 2 (Dick Wei) – Partner of Lethal Weapon 1, LW2 doesn’t get a name during the entire film! What the heck, as he is the main villain! That’s lame. LW2 is on a vendetta against Marianne for killing Lethal Weapon 1, despite Mr. Big trying to make him wait for things to cool down a bit before seeking revenge.
Lethal Weapon 1 /Larry (Phillip Ko) – One of the two hired guns recruited by Mr. Big to kill undercover cop Ben, LW1 tries to do the job himself to protect his partner and ends up getting killed, inspiring Lethal Weapon 2 to seek revenge. Prolific actor Phillip Ko was also seen here in Deadly Target
Mr. Big (Ha Chi Chun)- Mr. Big is the mastermind of crime in Hong Kong. Mr. Big is also a girl! There is a bird skeleton on Mr. Big’s desk, which probably is an interesting story in itself, and adds to the character’s charm. Ha Chi Chun is also known as Ha Chia Ling or Ha Chi-Jan depending on which translation you use, and is probably best known for being in Erotic Ghost Story.
Topless white girl (???) – She’s white, she’s topless, she mixes drinks with her breasts, and she invites gay porn stars to rape local businessmen. She’s an Angel Enforcer of her own, except she’s enforcing evil!
Cop girl 3 (Chiu Wai-Ling) – Member of the Angel Enforcer B Squad, Cop Girl 3 gets no real name (except one spelled out in Chinese characters that I can’t read) and is barely in the film after the opening scene, until returning for the ending. Absolutely nothing interesting about her.
Cop girl 4 (Kitty Meng Chui) – Member of the Angel Enforcer B Squad, Cop Girl 4 gets no real name (except one spelled out in Chinese characters that I can’t read) and is barely in the film after the opening scene, until returning for the ending. And a random fight in the park. Absolutely nothing interesting about her.
String Bean Sodomist (???) – One of the “blue movie stars from Hollywood” called in to ravage Mr. Cho. Looks like someone excavated his body, leaving only a skeleton. His hair has seemed to have slipped off the top of his head and is hanging on in beard form. Mr. Cho is never seen again after encountering String Bean Sodomist and his black partner, one can only assume the three moved to the Bay Area to settle.

Putting the B in Bollywood

November 7, 2008By

Even Bollywood has films that people are embarrassed about. Talk to many movie vendors, and they will deny that these movies even exist. But they do. When you think Bollywood horror, you usually think Ramsay Brothers. But they are not the only ones who make films in that genre, by far. Low budget horror has a home in Bollywood, but it is not filled with good films. At times, horror becomes a substitute for sexual release, especially in an area with such high instances of censorship. This list is intended to be mainly science fiction and horror films, I am well aware there is a large list of Bollywood action films that would fit right in this category. Maybe one day there will be time to sort through all of those, but I doubt it. At least the films where women are shooting up things, as that is much more rare in India.

These films look like they might have some fun parts, even the ones who are undoubtedly ineptly made with terrible effects, that probably adds to the charms. As long as things are happening, it keeps it from getting boring and dragged down. I got a hold of a few of these, but there are far too many for one person to handle by himself, especially since I have crap from throughout the world to watch as well. Perhaps we need a United Federation of Worldwide Crapwatchers! Okay, maybe a better club name is needed.

And maybe I’ll punch up this intro, which is currently fueled by NyQuil, caffeine, and Tylenol Cold. Like all good term papers.

Here is a nice article talking about Bollywood B-grade films
The Creepy Side of Bollywood has some reviews
This German site seems to have reviewed almost every Bollywood film ever. But in German, so it is useless to me, except the photos.

Many of these films are available at Induna.com

Chinese Transformers – Robot!

November 6, 2008By

Kung Fu cyborg

UPDATE: Read our review of Kung Fu Cyborg: Metallic Attraction!

No, not the lame CGI cartoon Robots, this is basically a Transformers-like story done in China by the mastermind behind the Chinese Odyssey and Chinese Tall Tale films, Jeffrey Lau. If you have seen Chinese Tall Tale (a film that is begging for a go-over on this site, I even snagged a copy for that purpose) then you know how much Sci-Fi elements Jeffrey Lau is capable of. It promises to be cool, and it can’t be worse than the real Transformers. The only question is, will it be better than Transmorphers?
Story Link

Famous Hong Kong director Jeffrey Lau, known for the 1990’s hit series ‘A Chinese Odyssey,’ starring comedian Stephen Chow, is now surprising audiences with his ambitious dream of making a Chinese version of ‘Transformers’.

Hangzhou-based newspaper Metro Express reported Thursday that the director will start shooting his latest science-fiction movie, ‘Robot’, on the mainland this month.

Lau brewed the idea to make a science-fiction movie ten years ago, and his dream is finally coming true. It is no news to audiences that Lau likes to integrate sci-fi scenes into his movies. In his most recent work, ‘A Chinese Tall Story’, he used a self-designed spaceship for added effect.

In April this year, Lau partnered with Le TV.com to establish a film company, for which ‘Robot’ will be the first creation. Zhuo Shunguo from Le TV.com, the investor, said the movie will present a refreshing look at Chinese robots for people who are used to stereotypical Hollywood figures like Spiderman and Superman. He said the Chinese robot, in comparison, would feel closer and more human to audiences, as it is the incarnation of Oriental wisdom and strength.

The film will start shooting on November 19 in Zoumatang, an ancient village in Ningbo, Zhejiang province. Later, the production team will move to Shanghai’s landmark structures, including the Oriental Pearl tower and the World Financial Center, to conclude the shooting.

The cast of ‘Robot’ has not yet been formally announced.
