A psychedelic mess for the most part, it does stand out from the crowd because of this.

Based on a book that should have been left in print. Poorly explained plot at the beginning. Scientists search for microfilm that holds the key to becoming immortal. The downside is the side effects will make you look like a caveman.

This was not as bad as I expected. I expected an incomprehensible 70's adaptation of an incomprehensible 60's book. What we got was decent acting struggling with what constituted hip in the early 70's, and which was wonderfully lampooned in Austin Powers. The 2nd half is quite funny, and I think it copes quite well with the lack of finance, but ultimately it is a failure.

I enjoyed it enough despite the dated visual effects. It was still pretty fun. I think I would like to read the books. I heard that author Michael Moorcock was critical of this. His books sound like they are on an epic scale. We'll have to see, but this was still good.

I found this offbeat British feature overly talky, less intelligible than the Mad Hatter's tea party and only occasionally humorous.
