This Canadian-made crap is my vote for worst film of all time. I noticed that the writer never wrote anything after this -- that is a good thing, obviously Hollywood never beckoned after witnessing this witlessness. The director made a handful of films I never heard of -- fortunately for us, nothing since 1987. Perhaps he's retired and living off of his "Gas" royalties. The plot concerns some nonsense about a fake gas shortage, obviously trying to strike a chord with the U.S.-OPEC based gas shortage problems in the early-mid '70's. Stupid, not the least bit funny. I wonder what the actors were thinking of when they signed on? The same year Donald Sutherland made this he also did "Ordinary People." I wonder if he bothers to list this one on his resume?
