On August 2nd Slugterra: Return of the Elementals will be hitting theaters in a limited release. I received a screener so that I could review the movie and I watched it this past weekend.

The Shane Gang rescued Junjie, defeated the Goon and things settled down for a while.

In Return of the Elementals the Shange Gang is at the hideout and Junjie has joined the team. We learn that Junjie is a master of the art of slug-fu, an art where slugslinger and slugs are so closely linked that the slugslinger can control their slugs through certain movements and exercises. Junjie has been training his whole life and is very rigid. The Shane Gang is a little less so. Suddenly the team has to deal with a crisis. Half of the slugs that they have suddenly turn into ghouls.

The gang learns that all slugs in Slugterra originated from five elemental slugs: Air, Water, Earth, Fire and Energy. Something has happened to the Air Elemental, it has been turned to a ghoul and so all air slugs also turn to ghouls. Eli tries to heal the ghouled slugs with Doc but it doesn’t take.
