You don't have to be a sci-fi fan to love it.

Rating: 7/10 (22 November 2011)

This is the first movie I've come across with normal "jumpy parts" in which I can withstand without much fear. This movie was enjoyable in an almost creepy sense. If I were a big sci-fi fan, this would be my favorite movie. It's amazing how much you could get away with in the 1970s; it's scary but cool at the same time. I liked the story, and the way it played out with ease. My favorite character would have to be Cary, with his insane obsession and knowledge of explosives. The group of friends benefit each other, giving the movie excellent morality. Not every threat is our enemy; if only the military understood that. I also love the title of the movie; it fits perfectly since an 8 millimeter camera is involved, and the movie truly is super.
