6/10 Digital Devil Story: Megami Tensei (1987) 45m - Wait, they had an egyptian, greek and norse god. Either they didn't know and just liked the look of the names or thats some deep shit
5/10 Dragon Slayer (1992) 45m - A bit disjointed as if it was parts taken out of a larger film/series. Though from my searching it wasn't, Didn't really follow the normal character arc as the kid was uber powerful from the start
6/10 The Curse of Kazuo Umezu (1990) 43m - Couple of decent tales, there must be a hanuted mansion here I could check out, though don't have the time. I suppose I could take the daughter and go exploring
8/10 A Thousand & One Nights (1969) 128m - I'm not to sure how close this is to the original material, but well made and told. Not to sure about the 'made in japan' sign in the tower of babel at the end, doesn't that imply it'll fall to pieces
7/10 Vampires in Havana (1985) 80m - Ha quite offensive to a lot of ppl, pretty lazy animation but the story was stronger than most. The accents were pretty good as well
5/10 The Devil and Daniel Mouse (1978) 25m - Pretty lame retelling of the tale, then again it was only 25mins so I guess you can't really expand too much in that time frame. Animation was pretty decent
7/10 Rumik World: Mermaid Forest (1991) 55m - Good story, but needed to be fleshed out more (pardon the pun). I wonder what the ratio would be for me to eat mermaid flesh.
0.5 0.5 i.e. 50% chance death, 50% chance living for ever, of course the ratio changes the older one gets
6/10 Wizardry (1991) 50m - Apparently about a PC game, they'ld even have a little desciption of the spell the character would cast flashed up onscreen for a nanosecond
5/10 InHumanoids: The Movie (1986) 85m - Basically just nonstop slaughter, maybe I slightly remember this from my childhood. there was at least a minute where there wasn't fighting going on
6/10 My Dread Is School!, School Is Dreadful! (1999) 46m - Various tales about a boy called creepta that can't make girls fall in love with him by stalking them
6/10 Roots Search (1986) 45m - Basically the ol trope of abandoned spaceship found drifting in space mystery what happened to the crew, but of course they were killed by a growing alien slimecreature, thus follows the normal outcome
7/10 The Cat's Mill (1993) 56m - Nice latvian tale, whilst the tale is nothing special the animation is great, I mean you can draw anything thus why not draw stuff you can't film make it like art, eg a cat head turns into a flock of birds to cut between scenes instead of just doing a simple cut like you would do if it was filmed
4/10 The Great Bear Scare (1983) 30m - Constrast that with this low quality effort, fuck some of the worse animation you can see. The tale and some of the writing though was decent
5/10 The Ketchup Vampires (1995) 90m - Bella falls in love with a vampire, Could this be the ursprung of Twilight.
6/10 The Canterville Ghost (1990) 42m Decent animation, though its a bit weird trying to sanitise the ghost for this childrens production "OK yes I murdered my wife"
5/10 Tokyo Revelation (1995) 55m What a load of bullshit, It tries to be epic but comes off as quite lame, also needed some more filler as theres a lot of jumping around
5/10 Dark Cat (1991) 60m Two Bros that can turn into normal pussycats, battle another cat though this ones a demon. Nice OTT gore in places, now what can't real films be like this.
OK Ai's just adding up the numbers since that fucking lazy cunt vinnie wont do it
