On December 24, 1977, three aliens and their probe visited Earth to find out the meaning of the Bethlehem star. Unfortunately, they were almost 2000 years too late. They met up with a boy named Peter and his pet goose who attempted to explain the true meaning of Christmas. ("A Cosmic Christmas" Cartoon TV Event)

Heavy Metal is a 1981 Canadian adult animated science fantasy anthology film directed by Gerald Potterton, produced by Ivan Reitman and Leonard Mogel, who also was the publisher of Heavy Metal magazine, which was the basis for the film. It starred the voices of Rodger Bumpass, Jackie Burroughs, John Candy, Joe Flaherty, Don Francks, Martin Lavut, Marilyn Lightstone, Eugene Levy, Alice Playten, Harold Ramis, Percy Rodriguez, Susan Roman, Richard Romanus, August Schellenberg, John Vernon, and Zal Yanovsky. The screenplay was written by Daniel Goldberg and Len Blum. The film is an anthology of various science fiction and fantasy stories tied together by a single theme of an evil force that is "the sum of all evils". It was adapted from Heavy Metal magazine and original stories in the same spirit. Like the magazine, the film features a great deal of graphic violence, sexuality, and nudity. Its production was expedited by having several animation houses working simultaneously on different segments. Despite receiving mixed reviews by film critics on its initial release, the film was a modest success at the box office and has since achieved cult status. The film's influential soundtrack was packaged by music manager Irving Azoff and included several popular rock bands and artists, including Black Sabbath, Blue Öyster Cult, Sammy Hagar, Don Felder, Cheap Trick, DEVO, Journey, and Nazareth, among others.

01/07/2024: early morning drawing of Taarna from the old 80s animated feature 'Heavy Metal', it still holds up and it's definitely worth viewing to compare todays current animation and from the animated features from the 80s. Also found some old google image of cell images of Taarna, will look at doing another pic of her soon.
enjoy everyone, regards from north London.

Based on the sexy science fiction cult comic, Heavy Metal combines extraordinarily stunning visuals, new wave music and a series of mindbending stories in a unique motion picture experience. The anchor of the film is an eerie green ball that magically transports us into a series of adventures in the past, future, and into the world beyond. Included are stories of the space super heroine, Taarna; the hard.boiled exploits of Harry Canyon, cab driver of the future; and the adventures of "Den:' who the green ball changes from an introverted teen into a macho hero.
Heavy Metal 2000 is a high-octane science fiction adventure concerning a beautiful young woman named Julie who vows vengeance on a ruthless tyrant after he destroys her planet. As with the first film, the stunning visuals are backed by a stellar soundtrack.
Pre-order Heavy Metal Steelbook.

~~~~~
We open this week in the past, evident by the black and white photography. A young boy named Mikey is heading up to bat at a little league game, his dad urging him to "not let him get to you" and that he's better than the pitcher. His dad keeps on him to show Deacon what he's made of, then calls him a little wimp. Mike strikes out and walks sheepishly away as his dad does nothing to hid his disdain.
Back in the colorful present, a biker is tying to wave a drive by, but the guy keeps riding him til he causes the biker to stop on a bridge. As the dude checks him bike for damage, he looks up suddenly to see the hot rod coming right at him. The driver then gets out and wipes the key that had been dangling on his rearview mirror on the blood of the now-dead biker, then walks back to his car.
Later, we are at a night scene. Grown up Deacon and Mike are setting the rules for a drag race, both sure they will win and get possession of the other's car. Deacon has a driver for his car, Mike drives his own. As Mike revs up he has flashes of his dad constantly comparing him to Deacon, and shaking him. Mike wins the race.
When Mike asks for the keys, the guy balks. Deacon and the dude both wonder what Mike has going on in his car. Mike pushes the guy and Deacon tries to intercede, but Mike reminds him he made the rules. He takes the keys and speeds off.
At a very busy Curious Goods, the gang is worn out from a busy sale day. Mr. Fiorno, Mike's dad and a neighbor to the shop, comes by to browse. He tells Jack Mike is about to turn 21 and they don't get along, but he's looking for a gift. Jack as his interests, Dominic says cars and that's it. When they ask why he'd be interested in any antiques, the old man says Mike used to come in the shop a lot when Lewis ran it. Our trio is … curious upon hearing this. Jack takes Dominic to the back to browse, and Micki and Ryan crack upon the Manifest.
Later, they've had no luck finding Mike's name in the book, so Ryan says they can talk to him and Jack says he'll keep researching there. Mike heads to the old drive in where Deacon and his gang hang out. Mike wants to race again, but Deacon wants Mike to work up to him by racing his lackeys, namely Chang. Chang sets a race for 2 am. Micki and Ryan show up to talk to Mike. They ask if he's still racing, he tells them to come watch later. Micki asks if he ever bought anything from Lewis. He said no, he just hung out at the store so he didn't have to be home. They push, but he says he never bought anything and heads off. He sees the guy he beat early, Dead Boy, chatting with the cops and roughs him up to ask what it was about. Dead Boy offers to keep his mouth shut if he can get his car back. Mike tells him to come get it.
Dominic shows up at the garage Mike works at with a gift for his birthday. Mike wants nothing to do with him. Dominic pushes to mend their rift, Mike ain't having it. Dominic tries to be rough but Mike isn't a little kid anymore. He says he has the only gift his dad ever gave him and shows him the key around his neck, with a flashback to his dad drunk and again comparing Mike to Deacon. Dead Boy shows up and Mike gives him his keys and tells him the car is out back.
In the alley, Dead Boy finds his car behind the gate. He sees Mike in his car but Mike floors it and pins Dead Boy to the gate, making him really a dead boy. Mike again puts the key against the blood.
At the store, the group is going through Lewis' old receipts as they tell Jack about talking with Mike and about the local racing culture. Jack reads an article about the police looking into deaths associated with a black car. Ryan decides to go watch the race while they continue their search.
At the late night race, Ryan talks to Deacon about Mike. Deacon says that Dominic was a racer back in the day and associates it with being a man. He wouldn't ever buy Mike a car, so as soon as his mom died, Mike did just that, to get even with his dad. Dead Boy's car shows up with Mike driving and ready to race Chang. He puts the bloody key in the ignition. Chang thinks he'll win for sure against this car. Mike again has flashbacks to his dad smacking him. He wins, but Chang thinks Mike cheated. Mike is adamant, so Chang tosses his keys. Mike says Deacon is next.
In the morning, Ryan is relating the race to Micki and Jack, saying Mike's car glowed. Jack shows a slip from Lewis, showing he gave Mike the silver chain as a gift when he turned 16, but Mike didn't get a car of his own until last year. They decide to keep digging.
At Mike's garage, Chang sneaks and looks under the hood of Mike's car, but Mike catches him. Chang says Deacon wants to talk, but Mike knows Deacon is curious as to how Mike is winning. Deacon shows up, saying his building a special car and maybe Mike can help and join his crew. Mike just wants to race Deacon. Chang wants his car back. Mike flashes back to his drunk dad giving him the key, a blank key, like Mike, and to come back when he's worth something.
Dominic shows up at Curious Goods and says he changed his mind and wants to return it. Jack spies the birthday card with the gift and hands it back to Dominic, asking about Mike. He asks about the chain Lewis gave to Mike. Dominic says they won't get the chain back cause Mike wears it with the key to spite him. He says he'll never get though to him and leaves. Micki and Jack try to figure out the connection between the chain and the key, and decide to wake Ryan.
That night, Ryan is talking to people at the drag race. He tells Micki about another death, and that Mike was driving the dead guy's car. They drive to Mike's garage and see him pull out. They cut their lights and follow him. Mike meets up with Chang, and asks where the money is for getting his car back. Mike tells him to wait and drives off but suddenly turns back and hits Chang. He puts the guy in the car he arrived in and drives it away. Micki notices Mike driving the different vehicle as it passes, and turns to follow. Mike notices the tail and speeds up, driving recklessly and crashing. He's bloodied and moves his coat to see the key and chain magically working their way into his open chest wound. Micki and Ryan rush up in time to see this, as well.
Jack arrives at the hospital and they say Mike was taken to surgery. A nurse comes to take Dominic to Mike. Micki and Ryan are about to leave to find Mike's car when the doc shows up. He shows them the x-ray of a key and chain wrapped around Mike's heart. He says they can't attempt to remove it without killing Mike.
Dominic goes in to see his son. He says he was waiting for this to happen. He says he was always worried about him. Micki, Ryan and Jack star putting all the pieces together, realizing Mike was the killer and that now theirs no way to separate Mike from the key and chain. With his dad sitting beside him, Mike wakes up and has convulsions as far away his car starts up and drives on its own. Mike starts laughing.
Three weeks later, Micki and Ryan come back to the store, having had no luck finding Mike's car. Jack says Mike has been released from the hospital. Ryan says he'll go back to the drive-in, Micki should check the garage.
That night, Mike, walking with a cane, approaches Deacon. Mike looks different, devilish. He just wants to race Deacon. Deacon finally agrees to race Mike, to end this once and for all. Mike walks off as Ryan drives up, telling Mike he knows about the key and chain and all the deaths. Ryan tries to get through to Mike, telling him he knows about tough father-son relationships. Mike ain't hearing it and leaves.
Micki is snooping at the garage and finds the car as Mike shows up. He gets the car to start on its own. Then he leaves as the driverless car chases Micki. She barely escapes as Ryan pulls up and she jumps in. The car goes back inside the garage. Mike gets out and sees Dominic has watched this all happen.
Dominic wants answers, but Mike says anyone would either think the old man was crazy, or lock Mike up, then Dominic would really be happy. Mike says tonight is the night he beats Deacon and shows them all finally. He has a flashback to Lewis putting the key on the chain and laughing, obviously having cursed it. Mike tells Dominic he finally likes who he is.
The Curious Goods trio tries to figure out what Mike is thinking or planning, but is at a loss. Dominic shows up, asking for help and admitting how he treated his son. He tells them he always compared Mike to Deacon. He tells them about the key, and says he is as much to blame as Lewis.
The trio arrives just as Mike and Deacon prepare to race, Mike again having little league flashbacks. They race, Mike and his car powered by the curse in his chest. Micki and Ryan stop and see Dominic race by them in his truck. As Mike thinks to his past and speeds forward, his dad drives his truck straight into his son's car and both go up in flames.
At Curious Goods, the gang are dressed to go to the funeral. Ryan is polishing the key on the chain, still amazed that they were able to recover it. Ryan marvels that something so benign could cause so much death. Jack says it is more like Lewis knew ways to tap into broken and hurt people to make the curse work. Micki wonders how many other "time bombs" Lewis has out in the world.
~~
My thoughts:
Interesting episode. A bit of a deeper dive into the WHY of a person using a cursed item. Mike's broken confidence and Lewis taking advantage of it creating a monster shows Lewis taking a stronger role in this particular item.
The key and chain working together as Lewis crafted a curse specific to Mike was interesting. And the key working it's way into Mike's heart was crazy. The doctor showing these people the x-ray borders on patient confidentiality, but it was 1989.
Wish the races had been a bit more exciting, but with limited budget I guess they did the best they could.
Just how did they find the key and chain in the burnt wreckage, though? I know the items are indestructible, but that had to be quite a disgusting and horrific search! What did the cops think of that?
Liked Ryan, albeit briefly, trying to connect with Mike over their rough father/son relationships.
Next week: The Sweetest Sting

“The rest of the thugs and cops are one-dimensional, except for Stockwell who ignites a few sparks in his role as a distinctly respectable crime lord. Unfortunately, he is only given a couple of key scenes.“
