The film that bankrupted Empire Pictures!
This is by far not a great film, but it is still a lot of fun, and considering the relatively low budget that they had to work with does a fine job with the stop-motion animation.
The animation is subpar by today’s standards, (and barely passable for 1989), the acting is over the top, and the plot is… immaterial.
Just shut the brain off and enjoy!
