For this Wednesday Super Slop Night, 8PM EST, by popular demand, we will continue the legendary superpowered schoolgirl lesbian anime series Project A-ko, with its third installment (1988), fully remastered! No more VHS rips. Ako continues to rock.

After that is I Married a Witch (1942), a romcom about a seventeenth-century witch (Veronica Lake) who returns to life in the twentieth century, seeking revenge on the descendant of the man who burnt her at the stake. In particular, she wants to ruin his impending marriage to the daughter of his gubernatorial campaign’s sponsor, to ensure the continuation of her curse on his bloodline. Look, you probably know how this is gonna go already. Nevertheless, this is perhaps the original “magical girlfriend” movie, having inspired everything from Bewitched to Urusei Yatsura. It is the best-known film of director Rene Clair, who specialized in this kind of light romance.

Last is Ghost World (2001), a cult-classic comedy based on Daniel Clowes’ graphic novel of the same name, about a pair of teenage girls (Thora Birch and Scarlett Johannson) who, following their high-school graduation, decide to prank a loser record-store owner (Steve Buscemi) by responding to his romance-seeking personal ad. Hilarity ensues as they are drawn deeper and deeper into his life in an attempt to keep up the masquerade. Will their friendship survive this mischief? We’ll have to watch to find out. This is generally considered to be the best film of director Terry Zwigoff, who is otherwise best-known for Bad Santa (2003). Looks neat; let’s watch.

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