    Another movie shot in the warehouse district...
    It took a lot of talent to make one really big pile of crap. James Earl Jones looks as if he'd rather be somewhere else and one can only imagine what the heck was going through Robby Benson's mind when he signed on.

    It deserved every bit of abuse it received when it was featured on "Mystery Science Theater 3000."
