Finishing out the Foreign-made section is an Australian flick from director Brian Trenchard-Smith. This time we find Henry Thomas being taken full advantage for his E.T. star power. I mean, the original movie poster even mentions this in case people needed reminding. Not only that but it goes on with a personal invitation from Thomas himself to go see this movie. Talk about pressure.
The movie does a good job in convincing little kidiots that the backhoe machine at the bottom of a pond is actually a Loch Ness type monster aka "donkegine." Pretty damn clever I must admit. And when I was a little kidiot, it scared the crap out of me.
After months of envying a friend of mine for possessing a VHS copy of this flick, I managed to find a copy at the Good Will for 2 dollars. Zing!
