I don't know what Carpenter was on, when he made this film. It's a giant mess - but in a fun way. Not "typical" Carpenter but you get sucked in nevertheless!
It's a funny thing - besides James Wong, literally everyone's acting in this film is terrible, like really terrible! Kurt Russell is some strange caricature of himself, if that's even possible. Despite all this? It's madly entertaining and you're loving every minute. The effects are actually pretty good, considering this is 1986 and I don't think it's a big budget film.
I was very young when I first saw it, so could be the nostalgia- but to me it still works - well, besides the cringeworthy acting performances of course! Treat yourself to this! I say it's wort it!
