Seconds on the spaghetti! This low-budget, campy but fairly fun Italian "Terminator" knockoff takes place in Arizona and has more arm wresting and naked male pecs than a prison yard park bench. ***/**** ___ My movie reviews on this page will be devoted exclusively to the films featured in the Mill Creek Entertainment series of bargain DVD collections, and specifically those selections that are in the public domain. Mill Creek movies tend to be low-budget, dated, obscure, outrageous, ponderous, exploitative, and bizarre. Some are unique and brilliant. Many are simply abysmal. For this reason, my four-star rating system is different from, and more lenient than, most. You can count on a one-star movie in my rating system to be absolute slop but just because I give a movie four stars, that doesnt make it Kramer vs. Kramer. It simply means that the movie is a truly valuable find in the Mill Creek collection. Its still likely to suffer from many of the same problems that dog movies made on shoestring budgets, or movies made for other-than-mainstream audiences. So just because I give a movie three or four stars, dont yell at me just because I set you up to expect The Godfather. That out of the way, an explanation of my rating system: One Star: Utterly without value. A one-star movie is guaranteed to be horrible. Two Stars: One or two interesting elements may make this movie worth watching to some, but odds are most will find it horrible. Three Stars: Good, empty fun, but no deeper aspirations. Somewhat likely to be horrible. Four Stars: A unique, ambitious, challenging movie, perhaps brilliant, definitely worth seeing. Might still be horrible.

Jan 23, 2011 - hey there. this one i think i have on at least two collections, the review copy is on "tales of terror" (for some reason; this film contains exactly zero terror). i'd actually been thinking last week or two about starting to mention the collections the movies are from so great minds think alike...

Jan 23, 2011 - thanks! I see you became a fan of my channel....lol. Don't be too disappointed.....I'd like to do movie reviews at some point myself, but have no camera, and really don't know what style of review I'd like to do. I see some where people hold up the dvd case give a review some (like yourself) review over the film. And some do both in one. So I'm not sure what to do, or even how to start using you tube. I do know I'd like to start sharing my 40+ years of horror movie knowledge.

Jan 23, 2011 - well, let me know if you'd like a theme song, brutha. i hand them out. in any case, if you do a review i'd say just do something you especially like, or especially hate, and have fun with it. the tabletop thing is good, or you can google images from the movie and talk over that, talking over the movie itself req's DVD burning and video editing software.

Jan 23, 2011 - Thanks for the tips the theme song offer....I'll take you up on that. I'm an old Beatles fan so that leads you to my tastes. Just one more question, I don't want to bother you too much. what type of camera mic do I need are they expensive?

Jan 24, 2011 - Just looking over the IMDB, has a surprisingly good cast of B-movie actors in. Thought I recognised Donald O'Brien and George Eastman!

Sep 18, 2011 - Just saw this movie. Other than the interminable chase scene at the end, it wasn't too awful.

Jan 23, 2011 - great review. I was just wondering if you might be able to let us know, in the future, what particular pack the movie comes from. Its a lot easier than looking it up on their site, or trying to read the backs of all mine to try to find it. Looking forward to the next review take care.
