Tullece, one of the few surviving Saiyans, and his gang sow the of the monstrous Shinseijo in Tree of Might. If the Shinseijo reaches maturity, it will drain all the water, ents, and life energy from the Earth and store them in its fruit--which Tullece will consume to make himself even more powerful. The title character in Lord Slug is the last of a race of "super Namekians," who arrives in a ship that resembles a small planet and bullies Gohan and Bulma into getting him the Dragon Balls to obtain eternal youth. The newly regenerated Slug begins to "terrafreeze" Earth, killing its inhabitants and transforming it into a gargantuan space vessel. Goku takes down both villains in duels-to-the-finish, with some help from Gohan and the other Z-Fighters. The features last about an hour apiece, and feel more like TV specials than theatrical films. Both are just business as usual for the Z-Fighters, but that's what Dragon Ball Z fans expect. The viewer has a choice of the English dub with the original score or new, obtrusive rock music, or Japanese dialogue and music.
