Viewed through modern eyes, this is stagey, predictable, low budget , un-scarey old arse. Which makes me wonder how it scared us both so much as nippers. I can only conclude that children are rubbish bumwits.
The opening five minutes with Dan Akroyd in a car's OK, and the bit when John Lithgow spots a pixie on a plane is good fun. The rest is deep fried tits.
The film is also infamous for causing the death of three actors, two of whom were children. Without wanting to sound like some piss-eyed, Daily Mail cunt, I kinda feel they should've scrapped the entire project, but I guess investors suggested otherwise.
