On The Stacks this week, part one (0:00-1:26:13) consists of in-depth discussion on Toshiya Fujita's classic 1973 chambara Lady Snowblood, in addition to "The Balance of Terror" - the 14th episode of Star Trek (TOS), which introduces the Romulans. Part two (1:26:13-2:48:55) features shorter discussion of eight additional films: Bert I. Gordon's 1973 crime thriller The Mad Bomber (aka The Police Connection), Lamberto Bava's 1987 high-fashion giallo Delirium (aka Photo of Gioia), Joseph Zito's 1985 Chuck Norris saves Christmas action extravaganza Invasion USA, 2019's infamous Tom Hooper musical debacle Cats, Michael J. Murphy's trashy 2005 SOV melodrama Roxi, the 1999 Shunichi Nagasaki J-horror Shikoku, the 1987 cheap tech-noir Alien Private Eye (directed by Viktor), and the 1988 Gary L. Keady post-apocalyptic musical Sons of Steel. Finally, as usual in part three, we talk about all the other physical media we've watched since last episode, and make our picks for the next one.
