One of my most favorite movies of all time.
Provocative and perverse....you'll either love it, or love it.
Most don't know that there is a second version of this movie which has been edited for television that raises censorship to a new art form.
Enjoy.
Plot summary
Terminal USA is the story of a Japanese-American family with more than their fair share of quirks. Ma (Sharon Omi) is stealing grandpa's morphine, Airhead sister (Jenny Woo) is having sex with the family lawyer, One brother (Jon Moritsugu) gets perfect grades but is hiding a secret gay love of skinheads, and the other brother (also Jon Moritsugu) is a wastoid druggie. The tension leads to an explosion of absurd violence as crazier and crazier things happen to the family.

Insanely Delicious Delight
Suburban asian-american family, insane.
Seen at the microcinefest film festival in 1997, this film gave us much to chortle about. An anything but ordinary asian-american family, with a drug dealer screw-up for one son, a nerdy one with a fetish for skinheads in leather for another, a whore cheerleader for a daughter, an ailing grandfather and psychotic parents. Hilarity ensues. A an extremely fun ride that blows away commercial garbage with its sarcastic wit, charm and schizophrenic craziness.
This movie has the best climax ever.
When I first saw this movie, it took me a minute to decide whether it was the best movie I had ever seen, or the worst. Since then, I've watched Terminal USA probably more than I should have. Every single line of dialogue is genius! The climax at the end is so unbelievably terrific that it makes me pee my pants. I don't really have anything else to say, except that this movie rocks my socks. The End.
