Viewing Notes

Ofc I had to follow Westworld with its sequel, another one I haven’t seen since we started logging religiously. Thought I had this on dvd but I guess I never picked up that cheapie release I used see in bargain bins back in the day. Should probably get the Shout Factory release if it’s still available.

I like this film a lot but it’s not nearly as good as WW despite being only a few years removed. Always thought it was an eighties flick probably bc it’s set in 1985. My favorite part is the dream sequence featuring Yul Brynner, natch. Tho it was very confusing to me as a kid.
