For this Wednesday Super Slop Night, 8PM EST, we are fulfilling two long-standing requests. First up is Shaolin Soccer (2001), a Hong Kong kung-fu/sports hybrid from martial-arts maestro Stephen Chow, who is better-known for Kung Fu Hustle (2004), which we previously watched. A group of brothers, all Shaolin monks, decide to form a soccer team after discovering that their martial-arts skills could give them an advantage. Hilarity ensues. Yep, that’s the whole premise. A lot of people like this one, though, so let’s watch.

Next up is Tucker and Dale vs. Evil (2010), a horror-comedy about the titular pair of rednecks, who a group of college kids suspect of being murderers, only to discover that no, a zombie outbreak is underway, and the duo is the best chance they have to even the odds. A whole lot of gore and dismemberment follows from there. This is by far the best-known and best-regarded film of director Eli Craig, who is not known for much of anything otherwise.

We’ll start at 8PM EST on Hextube, right here:

    Iirc Tucker and Dale vs Evil has a fratbro villain that looks like Justin Trudeau. 10/10 would recommend to a friend.
