In MIFV\u2019s fourth season premiere, Nate is joined by Daniel DiManna (Godzilla Novelization Project) to discuss competently-made insanity: <em>Super Inframan<\/em>. Yes, it barely qualifies as \u201ckaiju,\u201d but Nate needed an excuse to talk about it (<a href=\"https:\/\/redcircle.com\/shows\/a7408f31-6b6b-4832-ba33-c115689469a8\/ep\/559e18c3-1378-4b58-900d-8d0466e88a2a\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">again<\/a>). To call it a hyper-caffeinated fusion of Shaw Bros. trademark martial cinema and Japanese henshin heroes would be an understatement. Believe it or not, this bonkers movie has connections to both <em>Kamen Rider <\/em>and <em>Mystery Science Theater 3000<\/em>! Nate and Danny also discuss \u201cBruceploitation\u201d and the Muppets in regards to this movie. The Toku Topic is, naturally, kung-fu cinema.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/monsterislandfilmvault.com\/index.php\/2024\/01\/20\/episode-82-epilogue-super-infra-dan\/\"><strong>Listen to this episode&#8217;s epilogue, &#8220;Super Infra-Dan.&#8221; <\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>READ &#8220;JIMMY&#8217;S NOTES&#8221; ON THIS EPISODE: <a href=\"https:\/\/monsterislandfilmvault.com\/index.php\/2024\/01\/17\/2081\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">https:\/\/monsterislandfilmvault.com\/index.php\/2024\/01\/17\/2081\/<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Featuring Daniel DiManna as Dr. Dante Dourif.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Check out Nathan\u2019s spinoff podcasts, <a href=\"https:\/\/redcircle.com\/shows\/henshin-men\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">The Henshin Men<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/powertrippod.podbean.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">The Power Trip.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We\u2019d like to give a shout-out to our MIFV MAX patrons Danny DiManna (author\/creator of the <a href=\"https:\/\/godzillanovelizationproject.wordpress.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Godzilla Novelization Project<\/a>); Damon Noyes, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.podchaser.com\/podcasts\/the-cel-cast-1181606\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">The Cel Cast<\/a>, TofuFury, Eric Anderson of <a href=\"http:\/\/nerdchapel.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Nerd Chapel<\/a>, Ted Williams, Wynja the Ninja, Brad \u201cBatman\u201d Eddleman, Christopher Riner, The Indiscrite One, Eli Harris, Bex from <a href=\"https:\/\/redeemedotaku.libsyn.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Redeemed Otaku<\/a>; Jake Hambrick, Edwin Gonzalez, Matt Walsh (but not that Matt Walsh), and Jonathan Courtright!
