No Artist - Blixt Gordon: Kampen Mot Ming FLAC

In the beginning (i.e. in 1934) was the comic strip Flash Gordon, which got turned into a feature film in 1980, which was adapted into a comic book miniseries, which got translated into Swedish (among other languages), which was adapted into an audio drama released on this cassette. Unfortunately using the comic book as a script, without more adaptation than cutting a few sections for time (making the story less coherent in the process), does not make for good drama. Even the seasoned actors sound like bored amateurs, the few sound effects are ridiculous, the direction is completely devoid of imagination.

I recognised many of these issues the first time I heard it, but I was more forgiving then; now I can't stand it, whereas I liked it well enough when I was twelve.
