    • 10/10 - One of your very favorite movies of all time. Top 10.
    • 9/10 - Killer fucking movie. Everyone should watch it.
    • 8/10 - Great movie. Maybe one of the best released that year.
    • 7/10 - Very good movie, but not quite great.
    • 6/10 - Pretty good. You might enjoy the occasional watch, or tune in if you happen to catch it on cable.
    • 5/10 - It's okay, but maybe not something you'll go out of your way to watch.
    • 4/10 - Meh. There's plenty of better alternatives to this.

    • 1/10 - Horrible in every way.
      0
    • 0/10 - The Citizen Kane of painful experiences. You'd rather shove an icepick in your retinas than watch this.

Watched it for the first time not too long ago. Went out of my way to go and track down a DVD to see it, since I felt it was a classic I've been missing, along with a few other John Carpenter movies (Escape from New York, They Live, and The Thing).

It was enjoyable. I like the light hearted mood. But aside from that, I didn't think it was anything that special. I think I might have set my expectations a little too high for what it is, which isn't the fault of the movie. Uh, 6/10 or 7/10 or something around that.

I gave it a 9.  I love, love LOVE Carpenter and Russell, and would easily put this in my top 25.  But it's not quite top 10.

I did the same for the same reason. It's a great cult classic, but not in the top 10.
