This week’s Back to the Movies takes us north to the fantasy land of fictional Canada to review the second part of Kevin Smith’s True North Trilogy, Yoga Housers. This week Arthur is on a weekend trip to the great north which means I decided to throw a Back to the Movies house party and invited local actor and the star of Electric Nostalgia and Heroes of the Realm, Stephen Goodman!
Stephen and I talk about our love for Kevin Smith’s early career and his more recent work as a podcaster at Smodcast. We also discuss his less well received Tusk before breaking down its successor, Yoga Hosers. Kevin Smith has gradually become a more polarizing writer/director sinceClerks II which makes each and every one of his projects an especially curious venture.
Yoga Hosers stars a pair of Canadian convenience clerks named Colleen(Harley Quinn Smith and Lily-Rose Depp) who must team with the oddball investigator Guy LaPointe (Johnny Depp) fight off an army of mini-sausage Nazis(nicknamed Bratzis) before they try to take over the world. No, you didn’t read that synopsis–this movie is bonkers.
Yoga Hoser‘s has a fascinating story and one day, it may in fact have a documentary detailing exactly how a movie this bizarre could get made. As is, this is one of the strangest films we’ve reviewed on this podcast and we can’t wait to talk with you about it! What did we think of Yoga Hosers?
