Eastman House's assistant curator, Ed Strandtmann, takes a somewhat more pragmatic view of the problem. Sure, I feel bad that a lot of stuff was done or handled the way it was, but you have to look at it from the aspect of the times as well. As technology races ahead and society struggles to keep up, we live in an increasingly ephemeral society. At least there are people like Tim League and the moviegoers of the Alamo, who can appreciate the intrinsic value, however slim, of something like Kill and Kill Again and make sure it'll be around for a while. It's a shame to think about any film, regardless of its stature, being gone forever.
