    80's anime movies
    Trying to find the name of an anime movie that always seemed to be on late night when I was in hs (96-00). I assume it was USA up all night, but it is not listed on their list of movies.

    All I can remember is that the opening scene (or at least a scene) there are some WW II bomber pilots flying at night (seem ghostly) and they find an orb type thing takes them out / kills them?? And that seems to be the theme of the movie - evil/bad orb traveling through other dimensions creating death or something. There is also a scene with a janitor on a spaceship. Wish I had more. Thanks.

    Sounds like the cult classic,.

    Heavy Metal (81)
    inspired by the comic book
    Heavy Metal

    A man returns home from a orbital salvage mission
    after finding a strange orb. He's greeted by his little
    daughter. The man examines the orb(Loc Nar) and
    is suddenly, and gruesomely vaporized. The girl
    looks on in terror as the Loc Nar begins to speak
    and tell her it's tale
    .


    Harry Canyon

    A cabbie and the beautiful daughter of an archeologist
    try to keep the Loc-Nar out of the clutches of a criminal
    kingpin


    Den
    The Loc-Nar teleports a young boy to another dimension
    and transforms him into the muscular hero Den


    Captain Stern
    On a distant space station Captain Sternn is outwardly noble,
    but inwardly horribly corrupt. Captain Sternn is on trial for his
    crimes. His bribed witness finds the Loc-Nar on his way to the
    court and it transforms him into a raging hulk of a man, who's
    hell-bent on destroying the criminal captain


    B17

    A B17 bomber encounters a hail of gunfire and
    most of the crew is killed. The Loc-nar lands
    inside the plane and transforms the corpses into
    zombies. The single surviving pilot ditches the
    plane and parachutes onto a remote island.
    His relief is brief. Moments later he discovers
    the island is infested with similarly zombie
    inhabited planes and the undead surround him.



    So Beautiful So Dangerous
    A beautiful young secretary finds herself
    touring the universe with the alien crew of
    a spaceship



    Taarna
    The Loc-Nar launches a vicious assault on humanity in the form of
    a bloodthirsty warlord and his army horde. Humanity's last hope is
    the sexy female warrior Taarna. She's the last member of an ancient
    warrior caste specially trained to battle the evil entity.
