Think on this: Had Ed Wood directed this movie, it would have been 1000 times better. Scary, huh? This movie is a true stinker on all levels. Even Joel and his Robot Pals didn't have a lot to work with, this movie is so bad.
A very thin plot, terrible music, interminable scenes of cars driving along just to stretch this out to movie length. To let the audience know that the evil minion is actually evil, they give him deformed legs. Well, that's bad enough, but they apparently do this by stuffing the knees of his pants with cloth.
The movie has a rather long scene of women wresting in the sand in white robes. It may be the high point of the movie, but it still is a low point in moviemaking. The women wresting isn't titilating at all, just in case this might have enticed you to watch.
The shots are poorly framed, with characters often only halfway on the screen. In scenes where there is a fire, the smoke keeps getting in the way. In one scene, shot at night, moths are everywhere.
The "cinematography" looks like a grade school project, shot on 8mm - and I mean 8mm movie film, not an 8mm camcorder!
It's not even spectacularly bad, or so bad it is funny - just awful. For something spectacularly bad, look for Troll II.
