The Odeon of Death Film of the Week: The Bulk
20 September 2019
The Odeon of Death takes a look at the week’s events through the medium of cinema.
The Bulk (2019)
BULK SMASH BACKSTOP! After laugh-a-minute Doctor Alex Johnson is exposed to Gammon radiation, he transforms into the Uncredible Bulk, a violently destructive idiot with his ever-present catchphrase, “Don’t make me Ukippy… you wouldn’t like me when I’m Ukippy.”
The Odeon of Death can be found on Twitter at, perhaps not altogether surprisingly, @OdeonofDeath.
