  British fantasy isn't dead
  
  This low budget sci-fi that was made in Hereford for a fraction of most American films budgets, certainly doesn't look cheap. It all moves along pretty ... read more »

  Undoubtedly one of the worst films ever made!
  
  This was so BAD I could only bear to watch 20 mins of it and I usually try to see things through to the end even if they are a bit ropey, so it says a lot that ... read more »

  Total Pap!
  
  The lead actor looked like a Thunderbird puppet, and moved the same way during the laughably choreographed martial arts scenes. The lead man Joe has probably ... read more »

  Can't believe I wasted 2 hours of my life!
  
  Normally I like to make my own mind up about a film. Regardless of bad reviews, if the film's subject matter appeals then I'll give it a go.

  And great fun to watch. Fast, bright and fun with an amazing level of special effects and action for such a tiny budget level. Some of the DVD supplemental ... read more »

  British buffy, with a guy.
  
  This is an interesting film. It has some bad acting, some poor script and some bad costumes. But this film somehow is OK(ish).
