Wow, I somehow missed the original. I need to watch that first and then circle back to watch this gem. This looks delightfully bad.

Well, it's probably a good thing that I was unable to get my hands on the original before watching this version. Now, when I eventually watch the original I can be even more impressed with it.

This one wasn't great, but it was fun...mostly due to the music.

The original was great. But really for it to be really dated.

Yeah, it was dated 5 years after it came out, I can only imagine how it would feel today. Still, it might be fun to see a young Deborah Foreman again.

I finally watched the original. Actually, I didn't feel like it was too dated, other than it being an 80's film. Fun movie, but I thought the end was a bit weak.

Deborah Foreman designs jewelry at her store in Big Bear Lake, CA.
