Trivia
Multiple sources state Ken Wiederhorn was the original director, and was replaced mid-production by Freddie Francis. However, Wiederhorn claimed in an interview that this was a misconception, that he had never been on-set and had never seen the final film. According to a May 1988 interview with the magazine Cinefantastique, Wiederhorn was initially attached to direct, but dropped out after financing fell through, and directed Return of the Living Dead II (1988) instead.

Goofs
In the opening credits, Michael Moriarty's surname is spelled MORIARITY.

Could have been good.....

.. But isn't!

What a confused and boring mess! Firstly, there seems no reason whatsoever for it to be set in Barcelona given the actors are all American or English!

The standard of acting on offer is quite dreadful, even Jenny Agutter sucks, big time!

Hard to believe that Freddie Francis directed this, what was he thinking?

The whole thing has a made for TV feel about it, feels really cheap.

The actual premise is good, and had it been dealt with more professionally, perhaps this would have been a decent film, but as it stands, it's not one I'd recommend at all. Doesn't even fall into the so bad it's good category.
