Deductive Reasoning!

We've been waiting for this one for a while and we finally found it online. It's been on the festival circuit for a while, but we were finally to see it graced the Internet in December. Top Knot Detective is an insane show made up of all those hidden weird parts of live action TV from Japan you've seen from the 80's. It's also never existed. This mockumentary movie goes over the cult favorite out of Japan, Top Knot Detective, which is in the same vein as Danger 5, because the people who made it worked on that totally bonkers show.


Check out ars review, for more info, but let's just say you'll have your mouth wide open at the sight of some of the scenes.


Without ruining too much some of the scenes we loved we're:
-a Japanese talk show populated with kittens
-Timestriker, a hilarious send-up of Power Ranger/Kamen Rider about a super powered baseball player whose bat use to be his girlfriend, who send people through time with said girlfriend/bat
-the catchphrase "Deductive Reasoning"
