“Khaaaaaaaaaaaaaannnnnnnoooooooooo!”

Bunny was so intrigued with Incubus [1], the William Shatner [2] vehicle filmed in Esperanto [3] that I mentioned [4] that she rented it.

Boy, talk about bad. At 76 minutes, it felt like a three hour film. Don't let the trailer [5] fool you, it's not all that suspenseful, and about three times slower than you might expect. Except for the nice camera work (but then again, even Plan 9 from Outer Space [6] had decent camera work, technically speaking) and an overwrought performance by William Shatner (May not be safe for work) [7] in Esperanto, there isn't much else to the film to make it worth the time.
