7/10
It's fun, it's quirky, and it's loud.

Electric Dragon 80,000 Volts is a frenetic rock and roll fever dream come to life. The narrative is fairly simple, but the action is intense. It's a loud film: the music is guitar freakout aggressive punk noise.

The characters are developed via compressed time quick cuts and long takes that show their idiosyncratic behaviors. There's almost a meditative quality to the longer shots, especially when viewed in the unique cinematography style. For those who are interested in one-off visual styles, this film would merit repeated viewing. I highly recommend the making-of features on the DVD.

If you like punk music and wuxia films, this may be the best use of an hour you've had in weeks.
