Unwatchable

Rating: Null/10 (14 July 2001)

Simply one of the worst movies I've ever seen, and one of the few I couldn't even finish. After five minutes, my partner and I began to mutter to ourselves about the sloppy editing, ridiculous dialogue, and wretched performances (it's probably best not to cast child actors who can't control their facial muscles). At ten minutes, mutters had become outraged snorts and laughter - couldn't the editor have even *tried* to sync the piper's fingers with the terribly unrealistic pipe music? At 15, right after he said, "Look! It's the ghost of Basil Rathbone!", we turned it off, figuring that if they didn't have the sense to edit out the crap by that point (admittedly, by then eliminating what sucked would have involved a totally different script, editor, and actors, and about 12 minutes less film), they never would.
