    Storyline

    Edit
    A young boy gets jolted with electricity as he's climbing a tall cable pylon. As he gets older, he experiences intense fits of violence in which bolts of electricity burt from his fists. Elsewhere in Tokyo, there is an electronics wizard who also happens to be a vigilante with a taste for electric weapons. When the pair catch each other's attention, the result is a battle that will light up the city. —Jean-Marc Rocher <rocher@fiberbit.net>

    It's fun, it's quirky, and it's loud.
    Electric Dragon 80,000 Volts is a frenetic rock and roll fever dream come to life. The narrative is fairly simple, but the action is intense. It's a loud film: the music is guitar freakout aggressive punk noise.

    The characters are developed via compressed time quick cuts and long takes that show their idiosyncratic behaviors. There's almost a meditative quality to the longer shots, especially when viewed in the unique cinematography style. For those who are interested in one-off visual styles, this film would merit repeated viewing. I highly recommend the making-of features on the DVD.

    If you like punk music and wuxia films, this may be the best use of an hour you've had in weeks.
