The movie is one of those movies that you want to watch over and over again. its bizarre, and highly hallucinagenic qualities. Its about a taxi driver and a glowing ball(evil). that throught the aeons is found and its evil "which transcends all time" is unleashed on the people who found it. It is by far the wickedest cult classic animation movie ever.....Don't hesitate watching this one of a kind classic. Some nudity and adult theme. But it will go right over your youngsters head. I suggest you watch it over and over again.....and again. its 2 thumbs up. a perfect 11 on the richter scale. for all time.

"...Impressive....Animated with great verve, and scored very well..." (New York Times, p.C14, 07/08/1981)
DVD Description
Based on the eponymous underground magazine and original art and stories by Richard Corben, Angus McKie, Dan O'Bannon, Thomas Warkentin and Berni Wrightson, this groundbreaking cult classic introduced Americans to the psychedelic style of erotic science fiction known as "Anime." This unique collection of six animated stories are all linked by sequences featuring a fiendish green meteorite that claims to be the cause of evil throughout the world. A combination of science-fiction, fantasy, horror, comedy, and sex against a pulse pounding heavy metal soundtrack with songs by Black Sabbath, Blue Oyster Cult, Cheap Trick, Stevie Nicks, Nazareth and other 80's rock giants. The video contains a three-minute segment that wasn't included in the theatrical version of the film.
