AUDITION (1999)
This week we dive into the absolutely messed up mind of Takeshi Miike, one of Japan’s weirdest and grossest filmmakers for a look at the movie Audition, a movie that has gained cult status for its absolutely different take on the horror genre. We don't really know what else to say with this one because this movie just kind of needs to be seen to be believed.  Contact us:   Email: themidnightfilmclub@gmail.com Instagrams:  @themidnightfilmclub   @jemusuboura   @zyrell

WATERBOYS (2001)
This week we dive into a niche Japanese comedy from 2001, Waterboys, which is the story of a bunch of misfit students accidentally getting themselves stuck doing a synchronized swimming routine for their school culture festival. Wacky hi-jinx ensue as the boys with no experience have to race against time to become proficient performers before they have to hit the pool.

BATTLE ROYALE (2000)

This week we start our second season of the Midnight Filmclubs tour of Asia. Starting this week with a classic from Japan is the hit 2000 movie Battle Royale. Does this movie stand the test of time, or was it just a shock value flick from the past twenty years?

SHREK 2 (2004)

This week we travel to far far away and watch Shrek 2. A movie featuring Mike Myers playing green Fat Bastard with Eddie Murphy as an ass. Ogres, ostracization, and over the top parody in a tale as old as about 20 years ago. It's pretty alright.

SPIDER-MAN 3 (2007)
A week later than planned we swing into Spider-Man 3. With No Way Home on the horizon we take a meme filled look back at the original third Spider-Man movie to see just how bad it actually was. Tugboat Mcguire and a high as hell James Franco duke it out over the grave of Topher Grace’s acting career, also Sandman is there or something? We're not sure too much and nothing at all is going on in this movie. Contact us: Email: themidnightfilmclub@gmail.com Instagrams: @themidnightfilmclub @jeiboura @zyrell

SCOTT PILGRIM VS. THE WORLD (2010)
This week we watch Scott Pilgrim, a movie that finally has more years between its release and now than Scott and his high school girlfriend and somehow still feels less gross. So strap up your bass guitar, go vegan, and punch a hole in the moon pretending its Scott's face while we blaze up in our Winnie.  Contact us:  Email: themidnightfilmclub@gmail.com  Instagrams:  @themidnightfilmclub  @jeiboura  @zyrell

HARD BOILED (1992)

This week we literally dive and shoot our way into the 1992 gun-fu epic Hard Boiled where John Woo jerks off basically every gun on planet earth for a solid two hours. So slap your drink, never reload your gun, and slide on into the morgue (literally) as the bullets tear up everybody within a 20 kilometer radius. This is peak Woo time.
