You have to listen in Pro-logic mode to get the soundtrack dialogue presented correctly. Back to the drawing boards for this one; and the marketing ploy for the new Sci-Fi Channel series is lame and a crass reason to put out this premium priced DVD.

He's a favorite of mine, too. I haven't seen this movie since I was a kid, but you've made me want to check it out again. Netflix, here I come!
