Hey I know.......lets take a not particularly good 1975 B movie.....lets remove the one thing about it that its fans thought was interesting (scoring extra points for killing civilians)....lets give it to probably the crappest hack in Hollyweird (who credits include D.O.A. , Aliens vs Predator (with which he managed to kill two franchises at the same time), Soldier and Event Horizon)......How can we possibly fail.
This guy really should be renamed Paul W.T.F. Anderson
