Viewing Notes
Can’t believe I haven’t seen this movie before now. Great “bad” movie. Also makes me sad for Claudia Jennings.
The explosions are insane.

I love this movie! I need to revisit, it’s been a long time since I’ve seen it.

It’s bonkers and so action-packed. I also listened to the entire Allan Arkush commentary which was interesting bc it was such a troubled production.
This movie is on a double feature disc from Shout! Factory that also includes the terrible Battletruck. My library had it but it may be available from Netflix.

Cool, I’ll have to see if I can locate it.
