“Well, I finally got around to watching this flick, having bought it some months ago for 50p on DVD after reading some good things about it on a forum (possibly from Sic Coyote, I know his review is around here somewhere).u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eI think I laughed about 3 times throughout the filmu0026#39;s 90 minutes running time. The opening line of the captainu0026#39;s log is a true corker, but this remains the highlight of the movie.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThe film remains notable for the presence of Dorothy Stratten in the title role, and even though she has relatively little to do, she does a fine job. Also present are veteran John Carpenter cinematographer Dean Cundey (whou0026#39;s work is seen in itu0026#39;s full 2.35:1 ratio on this DVD, surprising for a half a quid disc) and FX master Chris Walas, who youu0026#39;d have a hard time believing went on to do the wonderful effects on Gremlins and The Fly after seeing this.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eAll in all, not the worst film Iu0026#39;ve ever seen, but far from the best.”
