Wednesday: Heavy Metal (1981)

        A young girl's father returns from space with a green orb. The orb kills her father. It is pure evil. It tells the girl stories of it's travels. It has encountered several people and caused chaos. The stories include: a taxi driver, a nerd turned alien hero, a criminal witness, a fighter pilot, a government doctor, and an alien warrior. This movie was ok. It was pretty weird. I recorded it because it said it was a series of stories each from a different animator. The differences were subtle and not what I thought.
