    Yeah that's the movie alright, if i didn't already have it on VHS from the T.V. and i trusted the internet more i would order it. Maybe someday i will find it in the $5.00 bin at Wally-Mart.

    I have this movie on DVD, it's a bit lame but I watch it now and then. Maybe hoping for a different ending each time.

    I broke down and watched this movie last night. I was impressed. It wasn't a BAD movie, but the again, it wasn't a GREAT movie either. From what I can see, it looks like a 1975 with a 200 and Factory A/C. :) The baby-by-the-helicopter was a tense moment though!...:49:
