From childhood memory I recalled this movie being great fun and really cool.
So the lesson I learnt from rewatching this film recently is that some kid memories should stay as memories. this really isn't very good at all.
This is a shame as the cast features some genre greats such as Mark Hamill, Michale Berrman and Jeffrey Combs. The film doesn't seem to know if it wants to be a shlocky horror movie, comic book film or children's adventure. One minute it feels like Shaq's Steel film or Starkid the next it feels like Toxic Crusader. The tone is everywhere and for that reason left this old kid disappointed..
