But it's Deborah Winters alone, who, with a brooding reserve as intense as the drug-induced tirades, provides an underlying "vibe" throughout: where <i>anything </i>can happen... at <i>any</i> time. </div>

Hopper's too old and spaced-out for a soldier, especially one lusted-upon by young college lass Taryn Swope: unrealistically forgiving for his sporadic eccentricities. A meandering journey that even Dean Stockwell, Zack Norman and Michael Emil (the last two starring in Jaglom's next road movie, SITTING DUCKS, with terrific results) can't save. </div></div>

Perkins turning Ross into a famous model in Italy... is distracted with Ross's mundane relationship with Billy Dee Williams, a temperamental political climber in the slums of Chicago. "Mahogany" must choose between being Perkin's famous puppet or William's non-famous one. Her final choice is predictable, leading to a dull conclusion. </div>

The prison here is a daycare center, seeming like paradise at first and then becoming a nightmarish hellride our heroes must not only escape from, but their ultimate goal... to reach Andy's house before he ventures to college... adds suspenseful momentum equal, if not exceeding, the original. A prolonged death-impending sequence involving a flaming junkyard incinerator may be too intense for young children.</div>
