This week on The Stacks, in part one (0:00-1:13:41), Shana and j. get back into classic kaiju territory with Ishiro Honda's 1966 film War of the Gargantuas, as well as covering the iconic fourth episode of Star Trek (TOS), "The Naked Time" with a swashbuckling Sulu. In part two (1:13:42-2:40:02), we have six additional features: Georgiy Danileya's 1986 Soviet satire Kin-Dza-Dza, Law Kei's demented 1977 Brucesploitation oddity The Dragon Lives Again, the 2015 Peyton Reed MCU superhero entry Ant-Man, the unfinished 1969 Oliver Drake regional exploitation flick The Mummy and the Curse of the Jackals, Roland Klick's bleak, icy 1974 crime neo-noir Supermarkt, and the silly, bloody 2001 Todd Reynolds SOV feature Kitty Killers. As usual, in part three, we discuss everything else we've watched on physical media since last time and make our picks for next week's episode.
