Audience Member Dont watch just dont watch Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/01/23 Full Review Audience Member Uneven spoof of old-time serial thrillers. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/27/23 Full Review Audience Member Good for a laugh to see how to edit a film from old footage. :) Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/15/23 Full Review Audience Member one of the funniest films I've ever seen. Find this film and watch it. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/21/23 Full Review Audience Member One of the highlights of college in the 80s was USA Network occasionally running J-Men. It's Reefer Madness for people who know better. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/24/23 Full Review Audience Member Might have been funny back in 1979, but seems quite stale today. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 01/23/23 Full Review Read all reviews
