  #124: Ninja in the Dragon’s Den (1982)

  Jun 9, 2026—

  Hong Kong director Corey Yuen's tremendously enjoyable, Ninja in the Dragon's Den (1982) attempts to settle the perennial schoolyard debate of the 1980s: What's stronger, Ninjitsu or Kung Fu? Hiroyuki Sanada, a ninja on a quest for revenge, and Conan Lee, the kung fu master bent on stopping him, square off in this much loved martial arts classic that's chock-ful of enough booby traps, smoke bombs, fake dummies, impressive acrobatics and superb martial feats to satisfy even the most skillful disciples of the genre. Tune in to hear the full review! Timestamps: [00:00] Intro + Message from Space, Tales from Earthsea, Daimajin, Millenium Actress, Ultra Q, Saint Seiya, Cutey Honey, Queen Emeraldas, Aria [1:01:05] Review of Ninja in the Dragon's Den

  Team B #21: Vanishing Point (1971)

  May 20, 2026—

  BLT Team B review one of the defining car chase movie of the 1970s, Vanishing Point. Amped up on speed, a former vietnam vet makes a bet to deliver his dodge challenger half way across the country within fifteen hours. Half car chase movie, half road trip movie, it's a maximum trip at maximum speed, with possibly more to say than it initially lets on. Tune in for the full review!

  #123: Yongary, Monster from the Deep (1967)

  Apr 20, 2026—

  The Blade Licking Thieves venture into low budget, B movie territory with a review of South Korea's first giant monster movie: Yongary, Monster from the Deep (1967). An awful film in nearly every way, Yongary sits at the head of the pantheon of "so bad, it's good" Godzilla rip offs, which is to say: it's a terrible amount of fun. Tune in to hear the full review! Timestamps: [00:00] Intro + The films of One Piece live action, Unicorn Overlord, Angel's Egg, City Hunter manga [30:55] Review of Yongary, Monster from the Deep

  #122: Ocean Waves (1993)

  Mar 29, 2026—

  We review Studio Ghibli's most overlooked, and arguably underestimated film, Ocean Waves, a subtle, bittersweet hymn to nineties teenage youth, centered around a love triangle between two high school friends and a pretty, new female transfer student, that perfectly evokes the nostalgia of youthful romance. Tune in for the full review! Timestamps: [00:00] Intro + The films of Metal Gear Solid 3, Robotrix, Sketchy, Kingdom, Saint Seiya [51:55] Review: Ocean Waves (1993) [2:26:10] Bluesky Comments
