I hope that "Estimated Budget" of 6,000.000 was a typo. If Biehn had to take a pay-cut to do the film, and it grossed only about 64,000 in the U.S. Then he was lucky to make enough gas-money to get home. He did do a good job like he usually does, but it was strange the way he played it: "Nice Guy" then over-the-top "Angry Guy" when he kidnaps the Doc. And then back to innocent "Nice Guy" again... Very strange direction. I know he was supposed to believe she was in on the conspiracy, but it was out of place : / And to call this movie "Sci Fi" is a huge stretch. More likely it was to avoid R.Ludlow's lawyers. It's has the EXACT template for the "Bourne" franchise! Unintentionally, it really has some great comedy though. Like top Gov. assassin "Mr. Blue" I think, Plugging old ladies, every time he takes a pot-shot at the hero. And the luscious Doctor, horsing around at the control panel of the futuristic (Sci Fi?) mind-screw machine, while he's in it, is a real side-splitter! Maybe it DOES deserve a five...
