this be the type of film that may need to be view several time to capture all of it beauty and intelligence { just like curse of frankenstein from 1957 } . if you do not like odd and non mainstream film and steer clear of this masterpiece . for me and the artwork alone in this film be worth the purchase price of the videocassete . the storyline be a bit fantastic but seem to become reality in our world today . for be produce in the 1980s and this film be prove to be a prophetic vision of whats to come with big government and big brother want to control and monitor u . there be many slow section and the dialog can be quite hard to catch in many scene { thats why i have watch it 6 time now } but if you can digest it all and it may prove to be well worth your time . the film be basically about a world where people have evolve into robotic machine that have lose their individualism . they be only concerned about accumulate and procreate . the hero of the film have not succumb to this sickness and have not be tag and monitor by big brother . his mission be to release a secret drug into the water supply which will change the way the human robot think and allow individulaism to once again be a part of humanity . yes and it very low budget and but for it time the computer effect and sound effect be very unique and the painting be utterly fascinating . if you have an open mind and this film should impress and it prophetic vision be chill .
