“Unbelievable. Godawful. Mess. This was (inexplicably) on Turner Classic Movies at 2 am this weekend. Curiosity got the better of me (bad me!) and I tuned in. Hippies obviously wrote(?) this, shot it, directed it, all while stoned. Iu0026#39;m waiting for the MST3000 version, or better yet, for someone to give it the u0026quot;Rocky Horror audienceu0026quot; treatment. Spoilers will not be part of this review, because it would spoil your lunch/dinner/munchies attack. I havenu0026#39;t been stoned in a good 35 years, so maybe state-dependent learning would come into play, and Iu0026#39;d truly be able to appreciate this ever-loving mess of a movie. I have to write ten lines of review, which is about seven lines more than the script had, or for that matter, the emesis-inducing 1970u0026#39;s rock song that keeps playing through the entire movie.”
