I. Can. Not. Believe. This! The only way this film is watchable is via Rifftrax. It is clearly the result of bad directing all around. True, the writing & dialogue (including the overuse of “Rat-brain” and “Man Animal” to the point of stomach upset) is a huge factor in it’s hideousness, but the sets, score and wardrobe are equally awful. The performance by a bloated Travolta (who I believe thought he was participating in an extra long SNL sketch – which could also describe Scientology all together as a matter of fact!) only makes you feel embarrassed FOR HIM while watching.

If you decide to brave this dutch-angle Hell, have friends handy – prepare yourself for blue-sickness, and go into it with a nice buzz flowing.

There are a bunch of movies that are trainwrecks out there, but I think this one takes the cake and that’s why it’s so enjoyable. It’s not bad just because of a bad story, but it’s bad because of constant hammy acting, bad dialogue, bad costume, bad editing (I mean, WTF was up with that “curtain” fade they did for every scene changed), bad direction, bad special effects. It’s not one of those bad movies that is just bad and not entertaining for it’s overwhelming lack of talent. There is plenty of fodder for your MST3K nights.

Is it possible to give a film negative stars?
