80s Chinese Mysticism Week: Big Trouble In Little China (1986)

Big Trouble In Little China movie review from the Salty Nerds have them perplexed at this awesome cult classic movie from John Carpenter and Kurt Russell.  Kurt Russell plays the legendary Jack Burton who teams up with Dennis Dun and Victor Wong to fight the cursed Chinese sorcerer David Lo Pan (played by James Hong ) all the while romancing Kim Cattrall and dropping epic one-liners.   Big Trouble In Little China is ahead of its time in many ways, and part of its box office failure was because the studio didn't know how to market such an off-the-wall movie.  But John Carpenter has such a subversive take on typical 1908s action movies that this film is quite brilliant once you "get the joke."   What is your Big Trouble In Little China movie review?  Did you love it?  Hate it?  Is it all in the reflexes?  Let us know on our Discord server at:  http://www.saltynerddiscord.com And if you like our movie review podcast and enjoy our film reviews sign up for our members area to get access to a huge back catalog of hilarious content.  For just $5 a month, you not only support our show, but get 4 new episodes of us reviewing classic sci-fi TV shows. ▷ SUPPORT THE SHOW: http://www.saltynerdclub.com/  By becoming a Patron of the Salty Nerd Podcast you help us to create great content AND get awesome perks!
