This movie was kind of interesting and somewhat entertaining, though it looked and was made as if uni students were shooting there first film, some thoughtful ideas are put out there though there is just something lacking in this.
5/10 - Not really recommended
It was made on a low budget, also I think Tom got anyone he could in the film because I don't think he was intending it to be an oscar winner, it was about how he saw people being mistreated if they looked different from others. Also it was only his second time a director.

They had their babysitters and their kids in the film. A lot was actually ad-libbed, too. David Roya said in a most obnoxious interview late last year that production was allegedly halted for a time due to no funding, and blames Tom Laughlin for a LOT of things, including his failure to become a superstar (see my thread on Bernard elsewhere), so I don't really put a lot of stock in the passive-aggressive venom this 'spiritual and enlightened' person is saying.

True DIY filmmaking at it's finest. The recent so-called "independent film movement" could learn a lot from the late 60's/early 70's, when anything was possible. Independent film today is about 1 in 30 when it comes to the true spirit of unique, non-Hollywood formula.
