The strangest thing about this picture is that Warner Brothers bothered to release it. It has everything a bomb could ask for: Terrible screenplay, awful editing, bad acting along with horrible direction.What I find most starnge is that John Boorman could not see the turkey he was creating. And at the time, this was a big budget film. Only Dick Smith's makeup and Ennio Morricone's score are worthy.There is a possibility that this film could be re-edited and cleaned up a bit for a new video version. But John Boorman would have to rethink the way this picture should be assembled.
