      Borderline crap

      I will excuse this film for being short of total crap, because obviously there was some sort of effort made in this...I can only assume that the money put into this was saved from hard work to make this dreck.

      However, the editing is pathetic, sound is dreadful, camera work is far from good, performances are horrible, lighting and camera drastic, script is nasty.

      So why do I call this still salvageable? Because with a production of this sort with the right budget, crew and cast - this could be redone with nice exotic locations and craft production and all the right quality production values that this would be somewhat of a good story.

      If you can sit through this, you are strong.

      What the ....

      They shot the movie on VHS so it will look more authentic. There is no internationally acclaimed director. There is no plot, no story, just a gibberish talk and shooting. I was asking myself why I am watching this....

      Triumphantly Awful....

      One of those rare terrible movies that deserves to be seen. View with a group and enjoy the spectacle. This will be a cult classic.

      The cinematography, acting, story, dialogue and characters are perfect. This is cinema.
