I’m curious about the energy consumption—seriously, what must his electricity bill have been? And how did he avoid tripping every circuit breaker in the whole place? Those telepods can’t be efficient. Regardless, it provides enjoyment. It's a standard film from the eighties, featuring a storyline that gets going quickly and performers who were capable but also affordable enough for a science fiction horror movie. It is undeniably frivolous entertainment; it isn’t particularly profound. The subject matter involves science and its potential risks, although those dangers aren't explored in any meaningful way—it feels similar to Kafka's *Metamorphosis*, which has already been thoroughly analyzed. However, that’s not really the point, because you’re watching it purely for distraction.
