Episode 66: BIG TROUBLE IN LITTLE CHINA / Top 3 Cheesy 80’s Movie Monsters!

November 02, 2014

This week we’re parking our rig in the middle of China Town as we conjur up John Carpenters much loved cult hit from (1986), BIG TROUBLE IN LITTLE CHINA… Somewhere in the 80s, trucker Jack Burton (Kurt Russell) arrives in San Franciso to deliver his cargo and win a few bucks playing cards with the locals down at the Chinese market. Practically bankrupting nearly all of his opponents, his friend Wang bets him a game of “double or nothing†to try and regain his losses. Jack certainly wants his well earned money, but Wang explains he doesn’t have the cash on him and that’ll he pay later when he picks up his girlfriend from the airport. Convinced Wang’s pulling something sly, Jack insists he drive Wang to the airport so they can stick together. However, at the airport Wang’s girlfriend is captured by the streetwise Chinatown gang Lords of Death! She is essential for an upcoming plan to revive a thousand year old Chinese sorcerer and bring him back to the world as a mortal again, and it has SOMETHING to do with her rare emerald colored eyes! So begins a daring adventure to rescue Wang’s girl and stop the ruthless operation that’s going on down in Little China. Teaming up with a cast of very different individuals including Kim Cattrall and that dude from Tremors, Jack and Wang delve deep into an uncovering conspiracy in which everything’s not exactly as it seems. Here comes big trouble… In Little China.
