I love this movie. When you watch it enough it takes on dreamlike properties. Not just the music (and dubbed dialogue) but the obtuse logic. It is one of the great examples of something that makes sense if you don’t think about it too much. (Word is the film was rushed into production to take advantage of tax incentives and written by DC in the early morning prior to each day’s filming.) I’ve even grown to love the horrendous acting by Stephen Lack. What would be gained my *NOT* having him speak his lines like a wide-eyed ten year old?

I pull this one out when it is 1 am and I don’t quite want to go to sleep yet.
