Note : This animated sci-fi/fantasy/horror anthology film is up there with Fritz the Cat when it comes to cult animation, and if you were around 14 years old when it came out, it was probably awesome, but the truth is, it's not aged great. The main problem is that the stories, although they're written by people like Richard Corben and Dan O'Bannon are extremely fucking thin, just the most obvious trifles with predictable twists and obvious, infantile jokes. The art is also, in several cases, not really great looking by today's standards. And then there's the sexism, and when you thought you'd gotten over that, you get a Jewish lawyer stereotype who looks like the happy merchant's cousin. So all in all, a lot of things are not great. On the other hand, when they decide to rip off Moebius, the art gets cooler, the soundtrack is pretty great if you're into 70s/80s heavy rock, and there's a fuckton of animated tits, if that's your thing. So, a mixed bag, but its position as a classic of cult animation for adults is undeniable. Features a weird and wonderful voice cast, including Rodger Bumpass, John Candy, Jackie Burroughs, Joe Flaherty, Eugene Levy, Harold Ramis, and Al Waxman.

A framing story shows an astronaut returning home to his daughter on Earth with a glowing green sphere, which turns out to be the Loc-Nar, the embodiment of all evil, promptly melts him, and starts a matinee show for the daughter showing its evil deeds throughout history. First up, a tired cliché ridden sci-fi noir about a cynical cabbie in futuristic NYC who gets mixed up with the daughter of a scientist who's found the Loc-Nar (she has big tits and fucks him), which ends badly for everyone but him. Then, a nerdy teenager finds a green meteorite, which turns out to be the Loc-Nar, and it teleports him to an alternate reality where he's Den, a barbarian with a big dick, who rescues a woman from being sacrificed to Cthulhu (she has big tits and fucks him), then confronts an evil queen (she has big tits and fucks him). In the next story, the Loc-Nar interferes with a trial on a space station, making a corrupt witness testify against the man who paid him off, and then turn into a huge monster and chase him. In the end, he's ejected out of an airlock with the Loc-Nar, and it ends up on a planet. (No tits or fucking.) Then there's the story of a WWII bomber that's shot all to hell, and when the Loc-Nar comes around, all the dead crew turn into zombies (surprisingly, none of the zombies have big tits), and the pilot parachutes away only to end up in more trouble when he lands. In the next story, a secretary at the Pentagon has big tits, so she gets abducted by alien robots and fucks them. Finally, in a fantasy land definitely not created by legendary French cartoonist Moebius, a young woman with big tits has to fight off bands of mutant barbarians. In the end, this loops back to the framing story.

The original film animation is kind of grotty and smudgy, but this preserves it as well as can be, I think, nothing much to complain about in the transfer, stable, clean, and with good contrast and color, and slight grain. The 7.1 remaster sounds very good, and the original stereo is nice for listening to the music. Commentary track is interesting enough, if a bit dry.

Hot tip

Quote:

HeVK torrents always have lots of keywords. Try searching for “hevk animation” for more things made to move, “hevk anthology” for more films made up of several shorter stories, or “hevk 80s” for more from the decade when rock maybe got a little embarrassing.
