Viewing Notes
My second film at Sci-Fi Spectacular 24hr movie marathon… in 35mm! Been a while since I’ve seen this and haven’t seen in theater since it’s original release. Such a weird yet wonderful film. Didn’t recognize the parallels with Stars Wars “Dark Side” until this viewing. Fantastic looking print. Definitely a treat to see.
