Conrad Brooks, a decent actor has turned director and made an awful movie.
Jan-el some guy in a loin cloth wakes up after years in hibernation and goes on a rampage.
I thought that this would be a low budget schlock horror film in the style of an Ed Wood movie. Instead we have a shot on camcorder home movie that is worse than watching you aunts home movies of her trip to the cribbage world tournament in Toledo. Scenes run on and on with nothing happen. We get people walking and walking and going nowhere. You could cut this movie down to fifteen and odds are you'd have a watchable short, but at a hour or so its simply torture.
No offense to Mr Brooks, but the next time someone decides to make a movie with his camcorder they should either take it away or break his hands so he can't work the controls and inflict this sort of pain on an unsuspecting world.
