Yes i thought it would be perhaps at least something like 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea or even my favorite JV movie, Mysterious Island. Holy crap. It bothered me a lot, and i was a sophisticated enough young teen to be annoyed at the filmmakers and wondered what exactly they thought they were at. I finally saw it again last year and braced myself. Yes still grim. Yes still strangely off putting. But at least it seems to have a singular vision. I'd remembered clearly the helpless man being strung up and flayed alive, but i had no recollection of Samantha Egger's horrible fate. F.
