It is horribly mind-numbing in its badness. It's not scary. It ends up being just plain boring.
Throughout the movie, the actors keep forgetting their lines and what they're supposed to be doing. There are numerous scenes with awkward silence where the actors and actresses are looking at each other blankly. You can almost see the thought bubbles above their heads "C'mon, your line" or "Is it my line now?"
I should emphasize it's throughout the movie that this happens. Apparently, they didn't have enough budget to either rehearse or re-shoot any of the botched scenes. It's just long and tedious, even with the MST3K robots helping out.
Sorry StealthySkeptic but I must decline. I survived that movie, even with the MST3K robots' and my friends' help about 15 years ago and I have no intention of sitting through it again.
That said, I'm interested in Skyping another bad movie at some point. There are just some movies that are so bad, they shouldn't even be watched in the spirit of parody.
