[Episode] Devilman: The Worst Movie From Japan | Video Essay

And you think The Last Airbender is the worst.

Opening with bad Gun-Fu, sprinkle in copious amount of bad acting, and down it all with some bad CGI, this movie has it all. However, believe it or not, it's actually pretty difficult to showcase how bad the film actually is.
