Decent concept poorly executed. Really slow and sometimes a little confusing (especially early on), but I had a difficult time really being engaged with the story or characters. Acting was okay I suppose but nobody really stood out (nice, however, seeing Raul Julia in his first feature film). This is one to be skipped. **2.25/5**
