Weird Fact: This is the film that inspired Octavia Butler to become a writer!

As I was watching this film, I had a series of revelations. The first was that "Geez, I can write a better story than that." And then I thought, "Gee, anybody can write a better story than that." And my third thought was the clincher: "Somebody got paid for writing that awful story." So I was off and writing, and a year later I was busy submitting terrible pieces of fiction to innocent magazines.

The movie's on Tubi and Pluto (Rifftrax version) if anyone wants to see it.
