For this Sunday Slop Night, we're starting off with Stephen Chow's live-action martial-arts cartoon, Kung Fu Hustle (2004), which is pretty much one ridiculous over-the-top scene after another. Prepare for dudes to rock. After that, it's Carnival of Souls (1962), which many consider to be the (unironic) greatest drive-in horror film of the 1960s. That may sound like faint praise, considering it shares company with stuff like Monster a Go Go and Manos: The Hands of Fate, but it has a high rating on Letterboxd, so let's check it out! See CWs below.
We'll start at 9PM EST, right here: https://cytu.be/r/hexbear
Be there, comrades!
