There are moments in this movie where the great movie it could've been peek out... They're fleeting, here, but they're worth savoring, and they happen often enough to make it worth your while.

When I was flipping around the channels, I came across this gem. No joke, I seriously thought it was a parody. But no, the truth is much sadder, it was a real movie.I sat there, in awe, until the end of the movie.The whole thing looks like a home video! It's hilariously bad! It's one of those movies with the SUPER cheesy lines, extremely horrible fight scenes, stone age special effects... and yet, I was having a good time watching it! It's one of those movies which are laughably bad, kind of like Manos: The Hands of Fate. You know it's horrible, yet you can't stop staring and simply laughing!

This movie was absolutely terrible. In fact it has gained the honor of being the first movie we have ever decided to burn due to the total un-rewatchability (ignorance is the only reason for original viewing).First of all, Steven W. Kaman (aka Iven Nuvo, you aren't fooling anyone), what on earth were you thinking? I would have loved to have been a fly on the wall with the movie studio as you went over the plot of this movie. Kaman: "A mad scientist, will create an incredible weapon called the 'neurolator', things go wrong, special task forces and terrorist are called in, and then things blow up, and did I mention, the special task forces best friend is a talking pie?" Movie Studio "Kaman, you've done it again!"(sadly there was no actual talking pie)I really just wonder if Kaman (or anyone else associated with this movie) would show this movie to their friends or family and expect good reviews. I believe people make movies believing they are good, but the general public does not agree. I can't believe anyone involved with this movie could believe it was good at any point.We have watched many a bad movie, but this one has taken the cake (and vomits all over it with its crappiness).Truly atrocious. (Note to self, never have a security camera five). (Second note to self, build up sector 213 only to move to sector 214) (Third note to self, there is a sequel, BEWARE!)

This movie wasn't the best I've seen, but it certainly was not the worst (Armstrong was MUCH worse). The basic plot was interesting and somewhat plausible. Corrupt (not mad) scientist Dr. Edmund Wellington (Lynch) has created a device that will cause people to become highly aggressive and kill others. A perfect plan when you're talking about soldiers during wartime. This device makes them the ultimate killing machine. And the added bonus? The soldiers will self destruct afterwards. But something goes wrong with the self destruction part and the military, whom Wellington has been courting to buy his weapon, get cold feet. Then they decide to pull funding and scrub the project which causes Wellington to retaliate. Add to this mix Frank Stallone and his crew who are trying to stop the project from finishing and you've got the basic plot of ANY `direct-to-video' flick.The camera work IS jerky and causes one to wonder what is really happening as you can't keep track of the action. That directorial move was a bad one. The acting wasn't bad, even Stallone was `okay', but the overall plot was a pretty thin one. The director, I think, was counting on the action sequences to make up for the lack of plot but as I said earlier, the camera movements made those action sequences difficult to watch. It should be noted however that some comic relief was offered with the role of Senator Williams, played by Lynch's younger brother Barry. The senator was basically a horny `good old boy' who was after everything in a skirt. His scenes with his brother were pretty amusing too. Best line? Wellington to Williams when Williams says that he needs to `go over the figures' (in the proposal) again. He is actually wolfishly eyeing one of the babes in the movie when he says this and Wellington replies, `Oh, talk to her. She's got a firm GRASP on the situation!' One wonders how many jokes the brothers got out of that one at the next family gathering. :)
