As history it's indelible, as art it's good enough
Interesting to watch
I was 20 in 1992 when this came out. I hadn't even heard of this until this year. We spent $2 to rent it and it was worth that. I had to keep reminding myself what it was like the year this came out and how this could have been taken if you turned it on and missed the part about it having been written. It has a cool premise and is carried out surprisingly well.
I thought I heard there was backlash from it the way "War of the Worlds" had. I'd love to watch a documentary about that.
My husband was not thrilled that after we watched this I went around banging and knocking on things and meowing loudly. The cats weren't into that either.
