Kicking off my annual October horror binge with this remake of the classic 1958 movie poster (and the much less beloved movie it advertised). The guy I bought it from told me it was really good, which makes me question him because this wasn't fun at all. I got bored pretty early on and ended up just having it on in the background. Worst of all it commits the worst crime for a comedy film: not having any jokes beyond the basic premise. It's too well made to be so-bad-it's good, but too poor to be good, or even mediocre. Skip this and just look at the poster instead, possibly in a double bill with the poster for 1 Million Years B.C., another classic poster for a disappointing film.
