Watch only for a good laugh
7 December 2007
My husband and I love the TZ, and last year I got him the entire set on DVD for Xmas. We got around to watching this one last night.....and laughed hysterically, when we weren't staring in bewilderment. The concept of this one is actually pretty good (set in future, old couple wants to buy new bodies), but the writing reads like a first draft, and the acting doesn't help. The old guy stumbles and stammers and never finishes a sentence, only not in a charming way. Things happen pretty randomly--in this world, you can knock on some guy's door while he's playing the piano, and he'll get up and play poker with you and 3 or 4 other guys who are just sitting around waiting; it only takes a few minutes to walk out fully recovered from surgery, etc. (It's the future, after all--although the rough-tough gambling guys look and talk like Mickey Spillane characters). Lines like "Yes! Yes! Yes! Yes! Yes! Yes! Yes! Yes! Yes!" and a few surreal moments that seem straight out the Rocky Horror Picture Show make this a perfect candidate for the MST3K treatment. Enjoy!
