Author: Dissector from Manchester

Well, what can I say, of the 20 or so reviews below, there is a dissenting voice, this is a "Truly Magical Movie" I won't go into the story, read the reviews below below for that, I'll just say, put it at the top of your "MUST SEE" list, it's long time since I saw it, and I've been looking for a copy ever since (with NO luck I might add)

Now stop reading and go watch it....... 'o) BUT!!! beware, like I said, it's Magical, and will entrance you.
