This is one of my all time favorite movies. That being said I know it won't appeal to most people. You have to be open minded and willing to accept any premise and accept it and enjoy it for what it is. Don't focus on the flaws. Don't take is so seriously that you miss the fun in it.
This was never meant to be a blockbuster, that much is obvious. It doesn't have a huge budget or big stars in it. However it does have some decent special effect for that time and some interesting and catchy eye candy, unique visual effects.
It is campy? Sure. It is corny? Sure. But that's what makes it so unique and enjoyable.
It is a typical feel good movies of the 80s. It has similar plot points to star wars but they are both in classes by themselves. A young guy longs for excitement and wants to get along with his life. He gets more than he expected when he beats the record of the only arcade game in the trailer park.
The movie is left open ended. There never was a sequel or remake of this one. I would gladly be open to either one. Updated with the newest graphics, effects, etc.
I never get tired of seeing this movie!

Unlike most of the reviews on this flick, I enjoyed it for what it was and not expecting a whole heck of a lot out of it.
The movie has a lot going for it. Special effects are really nice eye candy for those that appreciate it. The story was not the most original but still good none the less. The acting was passable and decent. The worst part: the main actress. I can't stand JLo as a person, a singer, dancer and least of all as an actress. Her acting is so forced and fake. Not believable. No Oscar performances here; sorry JLo fan boys.
That being said, you decide if you want to see it. Not bad for at least one view.

I can totally see why this movie unknown. Par for the course.
Not entirely sure what writers and/or directors were going for comedy? Horror? Schlock? B-movie? Total miss on all of the above. I couldn't muster a laugh on any of it. But you could see that they were trying really hard to make you laugh.
Total unknown actors. Acting is obviously the worst I've seen lately.
I think it was an attempt to capitalize on Teen Wolf with Michael J Fox except with a vampire. These two movies don't even come close to comparison. This was more like a home movie project gone horribly wrong.
Don't watch it.
