Battlefield Baseball

No one does insanity like the Japanese do. They love hyper-kinetic films with illogical story structure, they dig on the old ultra-violence, and they love baseball. Put these three things together, and you get "Battlefield Baseball," or "Battlefield Stadium." (The box says one thing and the film says another...you see?! It's already crazy!) This is easily one of the weirdest movies i've ever seen. One character is inexplicably played by three different actors. One team is composed of green Frankenstein type creatures. A character breaks out into song for no reason to explain that he once threw a baseball through his father. And it goes on and on. Monsters! Cyborgs! Kung Fu! Baseball! Hazaa!
