SYNOPSIS: I will say this for Maxim Xul. It didn't have much going
for it, but at least it had Adam West (Batman). The cover
here touts the appearance of Richard Grieco (21 Jump Street).
Yeah, I'm sure all the 21 Jump Street fans ran right out and
rented this. Both of them.

"Let's Up The Rating To 'R'"
I've Heard of "Endless Love," But...
This isn't so much a love scene as it is an educational video demonstrating all possible sexual positions. Just when you think of something they haven't done yet, they cut to them doing it.

Too Bad Bob Vila Wasn't Working for Those Aliens
The alien teleportation device overloads
and explodes. Must have been shoddy workmanship, 'cause
it wasn't anything the hero did. The countdown doesn't quite work, either.
Also credited as Julian Breen, Ellen Cabot,
Richard Chasen, Dave DeCoteau, Eric Mancini,
David McCabe, Jack Reed, Victoria Sloan,
Martin Tate, Joseph Tennent, and Mary Crawford -- so
far. I'd try to disguise my name, too, if I had
nearly 200 directors' credits, all crap. Following
the pattern of most of his messterpieces, his
next made-for-TV flop should be called
The Wrong Director.
