One thing the first reviewer got right is that this started out as a student project with some special effects by future Oscar-winner Dennis Muren. And the actor Ed Begley Jr was an assistant cameraman on this film.
Then Producer Jack H Harris, who, I believe worked with Kubrick on some films in the 50's, saw the film, bought the rights and had extra footage shot to bring it up to feature length.
And the first reviewer asks how this got a video release. Heck I saw it in a THEATER when it first came out, long before there was anything called home video.
If you have nothing better to do for about 85 mins, grab some pizza and beer or soda and sit and watch this. It even stars the late, legendary author Fritz Leiber in a small role. Leiber is the author of many sci-fi books and the creator of Fafhard and the Grey Mouser, a pair of Sword and Sorcery characters.
