Don’t get me wrong, this movie is a piece of shit – but a somewhat entertaining one. It is so carelessly stupid that you can get swept away in its cyclone of cheap thrills. If there were a visual point of view (why oh why didn’t a young Sam Raimi get his hands on this script?) then this’d be a cult classic. As it stands, it is a forgotten film that could have been more fun.
