JFS121: Black Jack: The Visitor in the Eye (1977)

 

It's time for us return to the ol' Nobuhiko Obayashi well, with, well - another Nobuhiko Obayashi movie! This time, we're reviewing the manga-based flick BLACK JACK: THE VISITOR IN THE EYE, from 1977. It's that classic tale of a girl losing an eyeball in a tennis match and ending up with a haunted eyeball in its place. You know, one of those classic tales. Also a love story! Plus: we rank and review the past ten flicks we've discussed on the show!

So #DonloydNow and enjoy this bite-sized Junk Food Supper. We got all this plus massive warehouse fires in Boyle Heights California and their impact on local podcasters, great jokes on discord going unresponded to, a Thriller-based tour of the east side of Los Angeles, a serious and tender aside about mortality from a normally unserious podcast, 1990's DC comics story arcs (referenced only), baseball chats, toppin' off gas tanks, semi-heated opinions on Backrooms, an understanding of basic math (demonstrated), a brand-new approach to banking voicemail submissions ahead of schedule, unchecked nosedrips, crocodile tears, blank stares, squeeky chairs, phantom gleeks and so much more!!

Recorded live-to-tape from a surreal cliff-top on Boyle Heights Warehouse Fire Day, 2026~!
