I think this could be the best bad movie - EVER!

There's no way in hell that something like this can ever be made again, so it's something special or that reason.
It's a snapshot into a time in history before we - as a society - knew better, made shit up as we went along & rarely learnt from our mistakes.

It's pretty obvious what happened here: they had an idea for a movie, location, desperate or ignorant suckers for crew & cast, and a bunch of less-than-tame big cats. Wrote the outline of a "script" on the way in, rewrote like mad on the set around whatever the cats wanted to do, and "fixed it in post".

Knowing there was no budget or know-how for "special effects" makes it all the more WTAF!

I have no doubt there was cocaine involved. A LOT of coke. Some of that might've been the lions' share (hehehe - pun intended)

This rates in my top 10-20, top 5 of bads.

I like to show it to new film-friends - just to see them cringe.
