Watching now.....bizarre

I'm 53. I was a huge Willard/Ben fan as a kid. Now watching Ben through the eyes of an adult, I have to say, this is one of the most bizarre movies ever! The plot is weird. The writing is weird. The direction is weird. The acting is weird. Entertaining? I guess. More of a train wreck. The most amazing thing about this movie, Corn Flakes were 49 cents a box in 1972! LOL
