Finnegan:
[the rad stops working]
Son of a bitch. Pantucci!
Pantucci:
[Stands up and hits his head]
Ow! shit man!
Finnegan:
[On headset]
I'm flyin' blind up here, brainiac. I thought you fixed the radar.
Pantucci:
It's a little temperamental, you have to be gentle.
Finnegan:
Gentle, my ass. The whole system just crapped out on me.
Pantucci:
Killed off by your negative vibes no doubt.

No doubt.

I rented this recently and loved every bit of it from it's tongue in cheek extra clichéd action types to it's fabulously over the top gore. You can see here, exactly where Stephen Sommers is coming from and where he will go. The Mummy had exactly the same style and sense of humour. Treat Williams is fantastic in this. This is one under rated actor. Why is he not in more great flicks? His comedy is superb and he looks the action hero. Remember Things to do in Denver. Anyone who likes a good old monster movie should sit back and pamper themselves with this cracking good yarn.
