It’s a terrible movie. Verges on so bad it’s good. Uses more dutch angles than a crooked windmill.
Book was mediocre with a Mary Sue main that had Goodboy for a last name.

“verges on so bad it’s good” so to me that says that it’s about as bad as it can possibly get, before crossing the line into something I can laugh at, would that be an accurate representation?

Yeah, drunk or stoned with a group of SF nerds shit talking it would be a fun party, actually.

Ok, so it is watchable under the right conditions?

I never saw the movie, but I can accept mediocre for the book. I thought it was a fun take aliens and alternative history. The writing style is a bit like a morally superior american, but I can read past that (…I guess, because I completely forgot that part).

It’s been a long time since I read the book, but I remeber it being medicore late golden era. Herbert had no understanding of radiation and his characters tended to be good or evil without a lot of nuance.
