Seen it, love it, bought the store copy when they switched to DVD-only. Search engine's slow as fuck this sec but I know I've talked about it on a ton of bad movie threads.

choice quotes with pals in town who've seen it.

Why did you do that?
EXUBERANCE!!!

OH NO! OH MAN! OH NO! OH MAN! OH NO! OH MAN! OH NO! OH MAN!

fourteen years pass...

This movie has the highest rewatch value of any Golan-Globus production, with the possible exception of Shakedown.

Oh man, oh God.
