So bad that it is good

This movie is so bad that it is good. That is, it is fun to watch for all the errors and bad acting. It is hard to believe that Mr. Williamson takes himself seriously. This almost comes off as a spoof. But a spoof of what move? Itself. If you like bad movies, this will more than fill the bill. It is bad like "Plan 9 from Outer Space".

This movie has just about everything needed to be called a bad film, such as bad acting, gun with unlimited ammunition, wrong uniforms, bad editing, poor continuity, low budget etc. This could be a case study on how not to make a film or how to make a bad film. I must say this again. It is so bad that it is good.

I would rent it again, just to see if it is possible to count the mistakes. But let just face the facts, Mr. Williamson's films are not known for their artistic value. Mr. Williamson's films are more known for a chance for him to exercise his ego and for just simple entertainment. After more than thirty years as a filmmaker, I think most film buffs know this. So rent or watch this film for what it is, so bad that it is good.
