Absolute Crap

Hi folks...I must have been crazy to pick up this movie...it was in a huge bin of $1.oo DVDs and I thought....Hey, we like sci-fi, it could be fun...and it's only a buck.

I was robbed.

One of the most derivative, cliched, predictable, stupid, insultingly bad movies I have ever seen. The "love" story between Jeff Fahey and Erika Eleniak (of Baywatch fame) is so stereotypical that it hurts my head to think about it. Raise your hand if you didn't guess that the kid was his and that her husband was going to somehow not "make it" to the end of the movie so those two could get back together?

Actually, my favorite part was when Jeff Fahey goes into that ice cave to help his crusty old mentor/friend and in his haste ends up bumping into and moving one of the pieces of white cloth that are serving as "snow drifts". It is so fake and so obvious and made me wonder...uhm...didn't anyone making the film NOTICE this and think, gosh, maybe we should do another take???????????????????????

Oh well. Sigh. The guilty pleasure of trashing horrible movies. One of life's great joys.

Best to all in 2008!
