Viewing Notes

So laughably terrible but not very laugh-out-loud funny. Lundgren looks like a frat guys who’s seven years into his four year college, half out of it on qualludes.

Langella is great as Skeletor and his performance is pretty fun to watch. Meg Foster is underutilized, which is a shame because I really like her. In fact, I think I’ll start a Meg Foster project.
