Viewing Notes
This was the third feature for the Projection Booth watch party on KAST (I skipped the first two films). Really wanted to check this one out bc it sounded bananas. And it sorta is… and sorta is not. I was into for the first half but when the time traveler gets more “active” it just loses me. Feels like they could’ve done more if that is where they were taking the story. Based on the premise it should’ve have a little more punch to that finale.
Definitely an interesting movie that has a very disco score, which is amusing b/c it was already passé by this time in the US.
