I had the misfortune to buy this film in a video sale, and then wasted an evening watching it. As a Science Fiction/Horror film the plot has more holes in it than a Gruyere cheese, and even for a very low cost movie it should have been possible to somehow indicate that technology might have advanced slightly by the year 2889. In addition the acting was like Birnham Wood on a bad day and the dialog as sparkling as distilled water. I am a fan of movies which could be classed as 'so bad they are good' like Ed Wood's, but this is 'so bad its unwatchable' like "Santa Claus Conquers the Martians"
