How is the f/x so much worse than a 35 year old movie? I know it's a micro budget but come on. The cgi was laughable and there were not many practical effects. The sound was terrible too. Coould they not get the original resonator sounds from the 85 film? On the bright side the actors that played Crawford and Mara were quite good. The other performances were decent, except for the professor. His overacting was distracting & cheesy. The story was decent enough and kept me interested. The ending is a mess but I expect it will be explained in the next episode. If you like the old film this is worth a look but don't get your hopes up.

First 30 minutes is about real posters for classic movies. The rest focuses on new posters for old movies. These are not real posters imho. The movie turns into a commercial for mondo, the company that sells these posters. Was hoping to see more about development of movie posters in hand with creating of the movie.

This had some cool footage but got boring quick. Never really goes anywhere. Kind of like watching someones home videos. Great for them but not interesting for anyone else. Still it was cool to see all the teen celebs from that time. They partied and had problems just like us regular kids. (I was 17 in 1990). Worth a watch if you're from that era but don't expect much. Soleil does seem like a nice person.
