I was truly looking forward to this being a HUGE fan of the original and was devastated once the DVD had reached the five minute mark.
I kept checking the box to make sure I had been sent the right movie. A $4 million budget, what the hell did they spend it on - catering???!!! - ços the money sure isn't up there on the screen.
Cheaply shot, badly graded, sloppily edited, appallingly scored, a script that sounds like it was scratched down quickly on the back of a piece of toilet paper and the piece de resistance is the DIABOLICALLY BAD performances by a truly inept cast of nobodies.
What was Robert Hiltzik thinking? He should have just left well enough alone and not tarnished the reputation of the ground breaking original.
Avoid at all costs.
