Film Synopsis:
In Slugterra: Return of the Elementals, a new member joins the Shane Gang. Junjie is a master of the mysterious slugslinging art of Slug Fu. But even with the power of five slugslingers working together, the Shane Gang find themselves in over their heads as they race to protect the ancient Elemental Slugs from an evil alliance set on using them to destroy the 99 caverns.
Run Time: 70 minutes, Not Rated.
I received a screener copy of this film to enjoy with the kids since we would not be able to see it locally! A new member has joined Eli and the Shane Gang! Junjie, once the protector of the Eastern Caverns, is a master of the slugslinging art of Slung Fu. The Shane Gang must race around the 99 caverns in search of the long lost 5 Elelmentals that are scattered through out them. They must collect Earth, Water, Air, Energy and Fire before they fall into the wrong hangs.
I do not want to give too much away, but someone from Eli's past makes an appearance and at first is part of the evil alliance. Eli will struggle with saving the slugs and dealing with someone he thought was gone long ago.
The kids love this film, especially when the slugs transformed into battle beasts! The ending leaves you hanging and wanting to know more. Well played Shout! Factory!, now to wait till the new season starts to see if it is where this movie left off!
