Some Camp

I watched a really campy Japanese flick that I have to recommend. If you go to Amazon (& I hope this works), you can see the write up for the movie called Kibakichi. It is amazingly awful & laughed all the way through it. For those who like Bruce Campbell and movies like Army of Darkness, then you have got to try this movie. It is hilarious!

This summary gives the best description of what happens. I stole it off Amazon and was written up by D. Allen "Wolfman" -
"In the early 1700's, men and monsters lived in peace with each other and nature. It wasn't long before men lost their fear of mosters, and soon turned on them, determined to wipe the monsters from Japan. Though largely successful, small bands of monsters survived, hiding out deep within the mountains. Enter Kibakichi, a ronin from a slaughtered band of werewolves. Kibakichi happens upon one of the last surviving towns populated by monsters. The head of the clan has a dream that once more, men and monsters can live together, though the town feeds off of gamblers who come to the local casino. Though Kibakichi warns them against this corse of action (Kibakichi once trusted humans, but his trust lead to the massacre of his clan of werewolves, who, interestingly enough, are a clan of Japanese dressed up like Native Americans!), the clan leader persists, putting his trust in a band of humans (what's the clue that the humans will betray the monsters? How about the fact that the humans are all dressed in "Hellraiser" / cenobite style outfits, and their leader wears a Ku Klux Klan style hood!) The humans decide to betray the gullible monsters (gee, we didn't see this coming!), and with Gatling Guns bought from England (and dispite it being the 1700's, a batch of billet aluminum cased hand grenades, as well as WWII German "Patato Masher" Grenades), the humans begin to decimate the township of monsters. This pisses off Kibakitchi so much, he turns into a werewolf, and there begins a classic monster bash, straight out of "The Guiver"! "

What makes it so funny for me is the dubbing. It is absolutely awful. You have to wonder just what was really being said because there are so many scenes when the dialogue and action do not match that you do not notice until later that the lip movement is off even more. For those who have "cheesy" movie nights this is one I definitely have to recommend.
