Dachimawa Lee, a review by Tom

Dachimawa Lee

This is our first movie this year at the AsiaFilmFest. A colleague has chosen this one, because he had seen an earlier film by the same director, which he really liked. But on this one, we both agree: It was utter b**sh*t!
The announcer told us, that this movie is some kind of remake of the first amateur movie, the director did. This movie wants to be some kind of spy film parody.
It seems to be the purpose of this movie to have horribly bad over-the-top acting. The director thought it funny, to dub all the voices (even the female ones) with one bad male voice (at least I think it was all the same voice actor). As I understand it, it was to imitate Korean agent movies from the 60s and 70s, but it was simply annoying. I would have thought it okay when they would have done this only with the pre-opening title scene, but this torture lasted two and an half hour. You know the fan videos of guys, who dub over famous movie scenes with their own voice to supposely make a funny scene out of it? This movie is a 2.5 hour version of something like this.

Sliders Marathon, a review by addicted2dvd

10. ASYLUM
Rembrandt falls for a beautiful doctor who is Quinn's only home for survival, but her dangerous secret could mean doom for everyone else.

My Thoughts:
This was a good episode... pretty much a Kromagg episode with no Kromaggs. They sliders arrived on a world that dealed with the kromaggs and they took all their natural resources and left them. I found this to be more entertaining then the ones where the Kromaggs are actually in the episode for some reason.

My Rating:

11. CALIFORNIA REICH
Rembrandt's latest jump has him fearing for his life when the groups lands in a dimension where minorities are rounded up by the violent racist elite.

My Thoughts:
This time the end up in racist world. Definitely not one of my favorites. I mean it is ok... but no more then that. I find it a bit on the slow and boring side.

My Rating:

12. THE DYING FIELDS
An Eden-like-setting hides a fearful secret when the Sliders stumble across two Hu-maggs - part Kromagg, part human - who are involved in a deadly game.

My Thoughts:
While I normally dislike the Kropmagg episodes... this one I enjoyed quite a bit. I liked the whole manhunting game and the Hu-maggs were actually quite entertaining.

My Rating:

13. LIPSCHITZ LIVE
It's light, camera, Colin when the Sliders land in a world where he is mistaken for his wealthy double and the whole society seems to be turned in to a ridiculaus TV show.

My Thoughts:
This one is more of a humourous episode. And I can enjoy it for what it is... but the quality of the storyline really isn't up to standards with the rest of the series.

My Rating:

14. MOTHER AND CHILD
Maternal instinct causes trouble for the Sliders when they dicide to help an escapee from a breeding camp and her half-Kromagg offspring.

My Thoughts:
It is an alright episode. More Kromagg stuff. The storyline wasn't really bad... but it isn't an episode that I tend to remember much after watching it... for some reason the Kromagg heavy episode just bore me a bit.

My Rating:
