Viewing Notes

Cracked another DVD set I’ve had for a little while that has 3 Full Moon flicks: this, Demonic Toys then the Dollman vs Demonic Toys. Figured I’d start w/this one first since I’ve been wanting to see this the most and b/c of Tim Thomerson, who I love.

Knowing nothing about this going in I was rather surprised when supercop Brick (Thomerson) shows up in present day as miniature person! I had no idea!! So hence the name, Brick is like a 1/6 scale living breathing action figure. Pretty cool. Also didn’t know Jackie Earle Haley was the other lead.

Yeah, this is kinda dopey but everyone looks like they’re having fun. Another realization: Albert Pyun directed this!! Wow. So much to appreciate here.
