It IS bleak masterpiece - such a sense of creeping dread, but its courage lies in taking on such an extraordinarily emotive theme - the aftermath of Vietnam, IN the aftermath of Vietnam, in the rawest possible terms, with only the filter of horror-fantasy providnig any buffer for what must've been desperate emotions, historically speaking. I found it way more moving than, say, 'Combat Shock', and more depressing, if that's possible.
