It's bad but it's fun.
3 June 2011
Words fail me – well nearly. Never heard of this one but it could well be a contender for one of the worlds worst movies – yes, it's that bad. Thankfully it's also great fun with a good few laugh out loud moments and i must say by the end i had a warm spot for it – no i don't mean Hell. Direction, photography, editing, performances all stink like week old fish but oddly the script has, in between plenty of crap dialogue some wonderfully lucid and poignant lines that could have come straight from the pages of a 19th century novel by M.R. JAMES or some other notable genre scribe of the period. The story itself is quite strong and given some money, a decent cast and crew there was a good movie waiting to be made here. Certainly worse than anything EDDIE WOOD ever did and i suspect this is what an ANDY MILLIGAN picture might look like – i've only seen trailers of that guy's .....'work'. At least originally it would have looked nice enough having been shot in EASTMAN COLOR – alas the print here ( on YOU TUBE ) had very faded colours.
