[Julie, Odin, and Zeek need to cross the lava river]
Chartog: [to Julie] I am Chartog, guardian of the river. I know the way across, and I will tell you. You just have to...
[Chuckles pervertedly]
Chartog: ... kiss me.
Julie: Ugh... No way!
Chartog: [chuckles] What's the matter, my precious? Don't you find me... attractive?
[chuckles pervertedly]
Julie: [hesitantly] Ugh... if this is what it takes to kill Tyler...
Chartog: [chuckles] That's a good girl. Help your friends... it will be over soon...
Julie: [leans in, groans] Who will I have to kiss to get back?

It's better than I thought of this animation movie following the cult hit of the same name of 1981. Julie Strain is the muse that has inspired the animators for creating the heroine of this movie (and any film with Julie in it, even as a cartoon clone, is worth all of your time, trust me). The story is nothing particular, but it's fun to watch. There is also a very good heavy metal score that pervades the movie. Beware: it's bloody, politically uncorrect and with a few nude scenes. Another reason to watch it and enjoy.
