A few years ago I thought the same. I don't know quite what captivated me about it this time around, but it felt really heavily textured and full of forboding and because of all this seemed much more interesting on second viewing. I really like that grim seriousness of tone you got with that kind of material before later in the eighties it was played for laughs. And I've never disliked a Jeff Lieberman movie, wish he'd made more.
