For this Wednesday Super Slop Night, first up is Detective Chinatown 1900 (2025), the fourth installment in one of China’s most successful homegrown film series to date. This one is a prequel, being set in the year 1900 in San Francisco, starring the ancestors of the protagonists from the first three films. Cross-cultural hilarity ensues. Director Chen Sicheng returns once again. Currently the 14th-highest-grossing film of all time at the Chinese box office.

After that is Super (2010) ,James Gunn’s second feature following Slither (2006), and his first outing into the superhero genre, which has dominated his career since. A man’s wife becomes indebted toa drug dealer, and so he decides to become a superhero and beat up dudes until she is free. A lot of sex and violence follow, mostly in dark-comedic fashion. This was originally released unrated and so did not receive a wide theatrical release, though it later found a cult following on home media. Gunn has a good track record, so we’ll give it a shot.

We’ll start at 8PM EST on Blorptube, right here:
