If there are giant tentacles coming out of your arms and your dad is a floating birthday cake, you may be a mutant.

I like to think that the creation of any sort of expression defies national or cultural distinction - but, heck, let's face it, there's a special kind of crazy that comes from Japan.

Mutant Girls Squad, coming to you from the relatively new distribution arm Sushi Typhoon, is a nonstop parade of over-the-top absurdity. Shot on video, our story (such as there is one) follows a young girl learning she is some sort of Japanese X-Man, then running around with her friends killing people with tentacles.

Rarely has there been a film that you just have to "be in the mood for." To my surprise, I kinda dug this, even though it isn't usually my cup of tea. I give Mutant Girls Squad a B and say some clever things about it in this video.
