New Nightfall

Adapted from the Isaac Asimov story.

I liked the story a lot, which made the movie even worse.

Pretentious, confusing, terrible production values, meaningless plot points.

Feh.

This is the only movie I've ever walked out of. (I have a pretty high suckiness threshold, but this pegged the meter.)

The question seldom addressed is *where* Medusa had snakes. Underarm hair
is an even more embarassing problem when it keeps biting the top of the
deodorant bottle.
